Code 7 390mm x 6m (15inch) Roofing Lead Roll
Code 7 lead is not often used but when it is, it is used for such jobs as box gutters or valley gutters, were the extra thickness is required. It is also often used in historic or listed buildings.
Lead is a heavy, malleable and soft metal. White when freshly cut, lead quickly turns to a dull grey once oxidised.
Lead has many uses outside the roofing industry such as being used for batteries and weights but is manly used within the construction industry as a roofing material. Some of its uses are:
- Building a gulley or valley
- Used as a step flashing against brickwork to keep a watertight seal e.g. a chimney
- Sealing gaps or forming a watertight joint
- Soldering
- Gutter lining
- Artwork and detail
Sold in the form of lead rolls, milled lead has been used on roofs for over a century and still remains a firm favourite with roofers today. Even with the introduction of numerous lead substitutes on the market.
