60mm Aluminium Capping for Gable End Rafter

Choice of colour, length and base gasket

Attractive closure. Superior sealing!

Premium quality, Inner Capping for 60mm (2 9/25") timber gable end rafters. The Gable Bar comes as three parts, a mill-finished aluminium Inner Capping, an aluminium powder-coated Gable Outer Capping and cast aluminium End Cap.

The Inner Capping gets screwed to a rafter and its rubber gaskets create a water-tight seal over the glazing. The durable Gable Outer Capping snap-fixes securely over the Inner Capping to conceal fixings and prevent water ingress. The Gable Outer Capping extends down on the open side to form a deep drip that cloaks over the end rafter. A heavy duty End Cap provides secure and decorative closure to end of bars, while helping to prevent slippage of Gable Outer Capping and glazing material.

Base Gaskets, which sit directly on timber rafters underneath the glazing material, can be supplied to provide a rubber seal under glazing material if required.
