What is 29kg Code 4 Roll of Milled Lead Flashing 240mm x 6m?
29kg Code 4 Roll of Milled Lead Flashing offers a versatile 240mm width and a standard 6m length, providing approximately 1.44m² of coverage per roll.
With an approximate weight of 29kg, this roll is a popular and practical choice for a wide range of common flashing applications, offering a reliable balance between coverage and manageability for effective weatherproofing.
Precision-manufactured to meet the stringent requirements of BS EN 12588, the "Code 4" designation refers to its specific nominal thickness of 1.80mm and a corresponding weight of 20.41 kg per square metre.
This lead flashing is produced through a milling process, which involves passing a cast lead slab through rollers to achieve a consistent thickness, fine grain structure, and a smooth surface finish.
Its fundamental purpose is to provide a durable, malleable, and completely waterproof seal at various junctions and intersections on building exteriors. This prevents water ingress, protecting the building fabric from moisture damage and contributing to the structure's overall longevity.
It requires the use of patination oil after installation to prevent unsightly white carbonate staining on the lead and adjacent materials.
Applications
- Cover Flashings for Stepped Abutments: A primary use, ideal for forming the visible cover flashing over soakers or secret gutters where a pitched roof abuts a vertical wall, commonly cut and dressed in steps to follow the roofline.
- Window & Door Head Flashings: Provides effective and durable weather protection above window and door openings within masonry walls, directing water away from the frame.
- Sill Flashings: Can be used to create robust and weatherproof flashings under window sills, preventing water penetration at this vulnerable junction.
- General Abutment Flashings: Suitable for sealing the junction between a pitched roof and a vertical wall where a moderate width flashing is appropriate.
- Flashings for Roof Penetrations: A good width for creating effective weatherproof seals around moderately sized soil pipes, ventilation pipes, or small rooflights when correctly bossed, welded, and dressed.
- Side Flashings for Smaller Chimneys: Can be used for straight or stepped side flashings on smaller chimney stacks.
- General Leadwork Repairs: A practical and manageable width for various repair tasks on existing lead flashings or details.
Benefits
- Exceptional Durability & Longevity: Offers an extremely long service life, often outlasting many other building components, due to lead's inherent resistance to corrosion, UV degradation, and atmospheric attack.
- Unrivalled Malleability: Easily dressed, shaped, and formed by hand or with simple tools to fit complex contours, abutments, and intricate roof details, ensuring a perfect, weatherproof seal.
- Proven Weatherproofing: Provides a completely impermeable barrier to water, making it highly effective in preventing leaks at critical building junctions across all types of roof coverings.
- BS EN 12588 Compliance: Manufactured to a recognised British and European standard, ensuring consistent quality, precise thickness tolerances, and correct lead composition for roofing and construction applications.
- Recyclable & Sustainable: Lead is 100% recyclable with a relatively low melting point, and lead flashing often has a high recycled content, making it an environmentally sound choice when responsibly sourced, installed, and eventually reclaimed.
- Aesthetic Appeal & Tradition: Weathers over time to an attractive, traditional grey patina that complements a wide range of building materials, both historic and contemporary.
- Noise Reduction: Due to its density, lead can also contribute to reducing noise transmission, such as rain drumming on a roof.
