Amerimax 5509900120 Aluminum Drip Edge, White, .011 In., 10 Ft.

An aluminum drip edge is an essential roofing flashing component installed along the edge of a roof to direct water runoff away from the fascia board and into gutters. This Amerimax model protects your home's structural components from moisture damage and rot by controlling water flow at the critical roof perimeter. Used in both new construction and reroofing projects, drip edge flashing serves as a starter strip to help align shingles and create a clean, finished appearance.

The kickout design at the bottom diverts rain water away from the fascia board, eliminating rot and protecting the underlying structure. This economical aluminum strip combines durability with a low-profile finish that blends seamlessly with residential and commercial roofs. The bright white finish reflects sunlight while the corrosion-resistant aluminum ensures long-term performance in harsh weather conditions.
