3M ROLL 900MM 36 CODE 4 LEAD 56KG

SKU
LM010109

Milled Lead is the only lead flashing manufactured to BS EN 12588, the British Standard for lead and lead alloys. The production process ensures the product is consistent and has a similar thickness throughout the entire length of the roll. It achieves this by passing a lead slab continually through two hydraulic rollers until a specific thickness throughout has been produced. Hence the common name for the product rolled lead .

Code 4 milled lead is as malleable as code 3 lending itself to be the perfect alternative when producing abutment flashings and soakers.   Its flexibility and resistant to wear with its increased gauge makes it a suitable choice for most types of pitched roofing such as hip, ridge, chimney, apron and cover flashings. The extra thickness of lead over code 3 offers additional thermal resistance which enables the pieces of lead you can use to increase to 1.5m in length.

At Burton Roofing Merchants we carry vast stocks of lead throughout our group such as the popular choices of Code 4 Lead 240mm x 6m and Code 4 Lead 300mm x 6m, along with many other sizes to suit your roofing requirements. If you can t find the product you require on our website, please contact our friendly sales staff at  enquiries@burtonroofing.co.uk  who will be happy to source the length and width of product you require.
