A step flashing roll forming machine is used to produce step flashing—a type of metal flashing typically installed along the edges of roofs where they meet vertical walls. Step flashing prevents water penetration by channeling it away from these intersections, making it a vital component in roofing systems. The machine automates the process, forming metal into precise, uniform shapes that meet industry specifications.

For businesses producing roofing components, step flashing roll forming machines offer several key benefits:

  • Precision: Consistent production of high-quality step flashing, ensuring a tight fit for roofing applications.
  • Efficiency: High-speed manufacturing reduces labor time and material waste.
  • Customization: Machines can be adjusted to produce step flashing in various sizes, profiles, and materials, such as galvanized steel, aluminum, or copper.

These machines are essential for roofing contractors and manufacturers focused on delivering durable, weather-resistant roofing solutions.
