Z Channel for Metal Roofing

Products custom made to order

Z Channel roofing flashing metal

Z Channels are designed to be used in metal roofing applications instead of a J channel. The Z channel flashing metal acts as a receiver for panels, ridge caps and headwall flashing. It also assists in preventing water penetration, since its installation is water directional.

As an alternative in metal roofing applications, the J channel may be used. The main difference being that z channels are a little smaller than the width of a panel and are installed after a metal roof panel is in place, while the j channel is installed before the metal roof panels are placed.

These items are always custom fabricated, therefore can be custom made to any profile, angle, size and many different materials. Normally, these items are bent to measure 10' in length but can also be fabricated in 12' lengths, or be pre-cut to panel size. We can also match any profile.

Riverside provides Z Channel flashing metal to general contractors, roofers and do-it-yourself home owners. Special pricing available for large quantities.
See images for installation method examples.

Riverside also offers installation services in Massachusetts and parts of of New England
