Tactile Stone Coated Ridge Cap Verde 400mm Steel

Tactile Ridge Cap Verde

The Tactile Stone Coated Ridge Cap Verde 400mm Steel provides a durable weatherproof seal for roof ridges and hips. This accessory utilizes a high-grade steel substrate protected by an aluminum-zinc alloy coating. It integrates directly with stone-coated tile systems to ensure structural integrity and a uniform finish across the entire roof surface.

Built for the Job

This component is essential for finishing the apex of residential and commercial steep-slope roofs. It covers the junction where two roof planes meet, preventing water ingress and protecting the underlying timber structure from rot. The Verde finish is achieved through natural stone granules embedded in an acrylic resin, which provides UV resistance and noise dampening during heavy rain. Contractors select this specific accessory because the lightweight profile reduces the overall load on the roof trusses compared to traditional concrete ridge tiles. The interlocking design allows for rapid installation and a secure fit that resists high wind uplift in exposed areas.

• Finishing main roof ridges on new construction stone-coated tile projects.

• Sealing hip junctions on multi-pitched roof configurations.

• Replacement of damaged ridge sections on existing Verde-colored roofs.

Product Highlights

Corrosion Resistance

The base metal features an AZ150 Aluzinc coating that prevents rust even in coastal environments or high-humidity zones.

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Secure the piece using serrated roofing nails driven through the side laps into the roof battens for maximum wind resistance.

• Do not use high-speed grinders to cut this material as the heat can damage the Aluzinc coating and lead to edge corrosion.

• Apply a stone-coated touch-up kit to any exposed fasteners or cut edges to maintain the weather-tight seal and aesthetic uniformity.

• Store in a dry area and handle with clean gloves to prevent oil contamination on the stone surface before installation.
