FAQs
What is the best metal for flashing?
The best metal for flashing is typically galvanised steel, although aluminium and stainless steel are also suitable materials.
HMR Supplies’ flashing are mainly Colorbond steel or Zincalume but we also supply galvanised steel and stainless steel 316 and aluminium. Our metal flashing is used in roofing to protect against water infiltration at transitions between the roof and other building components, such as chimneys, skylights and vent pipes. It is installed over these vulnerable areas to create a barrier that sheds water away from the structure.
How is metal flashing measured?
Metal flashing is generally measured in millimetres (mm). The most common thicknesses are 0.55 mm with galvanised in either .60 mm or 1.2mm, while the length of metal flashing is 100mm up to 800mm. However, other thicknesses are available and may be specified by the architect or builder.To calculate the amount of metal flashing required for your project, contact HMR Supplies and we will give you a free estimate.
How thick is the metal roof flashing?
Metal roof flashing is typically 0.5 to 0.6 mm thick. However, the thickness may vary depending on the metal used and the manufacturer. A metal roof flashing could be as thin as 0.4 mm. It is important to check with the manufacturer to determine the thickness of the metal roof flashing before installation.
Where should flashing be used on a roof?
Metal flashing is typically used around roof openings, at the base of a chimney or in valleys. It is also common to use flashing along the edges of a roof. Different roof flashing types prevent water from seeping into your home through these vulnerable areas.
How do you secure a metal flash?
Metal flashing can be secured with nails or screws. Be sure to use the proper type of fastener for the material you are using. For example, if you are using an aluminium roof flashing type, you will want to use stainless steel nails or screws. HMR Supplies provides a range of rivets, fasteners and other
materials for your roofing needs. We house the big brands of roofing materials to ensure you get nothing but top quality.
Can you repaint the metal flashing?
Yes, you can repaint your metal roof flashing. You'll need to sand the surface and then use a primer designed for metals before applying a topcoat of paint. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the best results.
Will metal flashing rust?
Metal flashing will rust if it is not properly maintained. If you live in an area with high humidity, you may need to take extra precautions to prevent your metal roof flashing from rusting. You can use a rust-resistant primer on your metal flashing to help protect it from the elements.Explore other rust-resistant

How long with a metal roof flashing last?
Properly installed and maintained metal flashing will last as long as the materials it’s made from. Generally, metal roofing is very durable and should last many years, but over time, exposure to the elements can cause corrosion of the metal, which will eventually need to be replaced.
