Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
A lead cap is the finishing piece over a pipe boot or stack flashing; choosing the correct diameter and pitch keeps the cap seated squarely and sheds water properly. Lead can be dressed with hand tools to fine-tune the fit around the pipe. Select 8/12 pitch variants for steeper roofs so the cap sits true to the slope.
Lead requires careful handling: wear gloves, avoid skin contact and lead dust, and wash hands after installation; work safely when installing at roof level.
Select the lead cap size and pitch that matches your vent pipe and order today.
