Match Your TapcoSlate Classic With Angled Junction Cap
Tapco Roofing has launched a dry-fix ridge to hip junction cap.

It is currently available in all six, stocked, Traditional TapcoSlate colours – 801 Stone Black, 804 Pewter Grey, 809 Red Rock, 706 Plum, 709 Brick Red and 712 Chestnut Brown. The product is also stocked in three pitch variants, choose from 14 to 17 degrees, 18 to 23 degrees and 24 to 30 degrees to match your roof slope. This angled ridge to hip accessory is manufactured in the same material as the TapcoSlate Classic product to match your roof slate.
The junction caps have a degree of flexibility when fixing and have the same properties as Tapco's roofing slate. They are lightweight, easy to install with pre-marked nailing guides and spacers, and easily cut with a fine-toothed saw or sharp utility blade.
Boasting a 40-year warranty and made from recyclable virgin limestone and polypropylene., the caps are fully tested to BBA, ETA and CE standards, including fire rating, wind, driven snow & rain, and water absorption.
