Roll Roofing Materials & Qualities
by Roof101 - Roll roofing is composition sheet roofing that is manufactured in rolls, and laid on a roof in overlapping strips. Roll roofing materials can be applied as most forms of sheathing, including underlayment and shingling, due to its availability in a wide range of materials. Some roll roofing materials include asphalt, asphalt saturated organic felt (which can be standard or specification felt), SBS modified, re-enforced fiber-glass, granulated roll roofing, and more. Often materials are mixed in order to enhance roll roofing performance and durability qualities. Some of these considerations comprise flexibility, water absorption, tear resistance, adhesion, thermal stability, and slip resistance. Asphalt roll roofing is the most commonly used roll roofing material, yet is suitable to steep roofing applications. Fiberglass roll roofing is appropriate for low sloped roll roofing applications, while modified bitumen is used on almost all roofing types.
