Birchwood Ridglass caps give a warm, wood-toned ridge accent on compatible GAF shingle roofs. The 10 in width delivers a bold cap line at an 8 in exposure, with about 31 linear feet of coverage per bundle. Use GAF-approved fastening and keep components within the GAF system to maintain printed listings and warranty eligibility.
Use proper fall protection when working at ridges; 55 lb bundles should be staged and lifted safely on the roof.
