EZ Glaze Ridge Cap Clear

The EZ Glaze Ridge Cap Clear covers the peak of an A-shaped roof where two EZ Glaze panels meet. It straddles the ridge and provides a secure, watertight seal that stops rain and debris entering the gap between the panels, while its clear polycarbonate keeps the light flowing through from eave to apex.

The ridge cap is manufactured from the same high-impact, UV-stabilised polycarbonate as the EZ Glaze sheets, with a co-extruded UV protection layer that prevents yellowing and brittleness. It matches the 90% light transmission of the panels, so the roofline reads as one continuous glazed surface rather than a roof with a heavy metal or bitumen cap across the top.

The cap is designed with a set angle that suits standard roof pitches while still fitting snugly over the corrugated crests of the EZ Glaze profile. It is a simple, high-value piece that keeps the highest point of the roof watertight and finished.

What You Need To Complete The Job

The ridge cap finishes the top of the roof. Pair it with the EZ Glaze Head Wall Flashing where the roof meets a wall, and fix the whole roof with the EZ Glaze fixing screws. The complete system is in the EZ Glaze category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ridge cap for?

It covers the gap at the peak of the roof where the two EZ Glaze panels meet. It seals that highest point against rain and debris while keeping the light flowing through, so the roof stays watertight and the glazed look continues across the ridge.

Does the clear cap match the panels?

Yes. It is made from the same UV-stabilised polycarbonate as the EZ Glaze panels and is designed to match their light transmission, so the roof reads as one continuous surface rather than having a dark cap across the top.

What roof pitches does it fit?

The cap is designed with an angle that suits standard roof pitches while fitting snugly over the EZ Glaze corrugated crests. It can accommodate minor pitch variations within the EZ Glaze recommended range.

How is the ridge cap fixed?

It is fixed to the panels and the ridge support using the EZ Glaze screws with the 26mm EPDM washer, following the same crest-fixing approach as the sheets. Seal the fixing points with the washer and drive at the recommended spacing.

Is the cap UV protected?

Yes. It carries a co-extruded UV protection layer that prevents yellowing and brittleness, so it stays clear and structurally sound under direct Australian sun for years.
