AltoLead Non Lead Flashing

AltoLead is a high performance, low cost flashing material suitable for use as a lead free alternative for both flat roofing and pitched roofing applications. The product is produced from sheet aluminium with a protective polyurethane coating on top and a polyisobutylene adhesive on the underside. Finished with a dimpled profile this unique construction ensures waterproof, durable and extremely malleable flashings. The polyisobutylene adhesive ensures a strong permanent bond to all building materials without the need for a primer unless a surface is extremely unstable and forming a watertight joint requires no additional tape or sealant.

It is extremely safe to use due to it’s light-weight construction and cutting and shaping is achieved with a knife or scissors that produce no sharp edges. Consequently installation is easy and safe with no health and safety issues.

AltoLead has a 15 year guarantee with a life expectancy in excess of 20 years.

The product does not look like traditional lead and has no re-sale or scrap value, ensuring that theft and vandalism are eliminated.

AltoLead can be installed and worked in any direction using a mallet, roller or by hand. Cutting is achieved with scissors or knife. Before fixing Alto Lead to any building material surface the protective paper should be left in place until the final shape and position is determined. The surface should also be clean and dry to achieve permanent adhesion.
