The Perfect Finishing Touch For Your New Roof Should Be A Protective and Distinctive Ridge Cap Shingle

<< Back to Ridge Cap Shingles

A Distinctive and Protective Ridge Cap Shingle Will:

• Accentuate the natural beauty of your newly installed architectural shingle roof (or even add dimension and depth to a strip shingle roof) 
   
  
• Offer multi-layer protection at the highest-stress areas of your roof (the hips and ridges) 
   
• Provide a striking and higher quality alternative to using cut-up strip shingles as your ridge cap

Timbertex® distinctive ridge cap shingles are a key part of the GAF-Elk Smart Choice® Roof System Solution, and have even earned the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal.

Homeowner’s Best Choice

• Perfect Finishing Touch… 
  Triple-thick design with massive 8" exposure is 195% thicker than strip shingles, for a distinctive, upscale look. 
  
  
• The Right Colors… 
  Designed to complement the color of your roof’s shingles. 
   
• Stays In Place… 
  Dura Grip® self-seal adhesive seals each piece tightly and reduces the risk of shingle blow-off. 
   
• StainGuard® Ltd. Warranty… 
  Helps assure the beauty of your ridge cap shingles against unsightly blue-green algae.* 
   
• Peace Of Mind… 
  Covered by a ltd. wind warranty against manufacturing defects.*

Professional’s Best Choice

• Versatile… 
  12" wide design fits over most ridge vents. 
   
• Easier To Install… 
  Pre-scored design with large, 8" exposure saves labor, and allows you to offer greater customer value. 
   
• Highest Quality… 
  Made with special, polymer-modified asphalt, so layers are sturdy and strong, yet bend easily to hug the ridge line.
