Parapet Capping 130mm Colorbond or Zincalume

The parapet capping is a 130mm flashing that caps the top of a parapet wall, waterproofing the ends of vertical sheets or masonry walls. It is available in Colorbond or Zincalume, so it can match a painted or unpainted roof, and it is made from 0.55mm BMT steel. The capping is fixed with anchors at intervals not exceeding 500mm, a minimum fall of 5 degrees is provided across the width so water does not stain the wall, and joints overlap by at least 50mm in the flow direction.

Installation

Fit the capping over the top of the parapet wall so it covers both faces and the top edge. Fix it with anchors at intervals not exceeding 500mm, and set the capping with a minimum fall of 5 degrees across the width so water runs off instead of pooling and staining the wall. Lap the joints by at least 50mm in the flow direction and seal them so the capping line is continuous.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a parapet capping for?

It caps the top of a parapet wall and waterproofs the ends of vertical sheets or masonry. It protects the wall top from water ingress and gives it a clean finish.

How is it fixed?

Fix it with anchors at intervals not exceeding 500mm. The capping is set with a minimum fall of 5 degrees across the width so water drains off and does not stain the wall.

How are the joints handled?

Joints in the capping must overlap by at least 50mm in the flow direction, so water runs over the lap instead of into it. Seal the laps for a continuous, watertight line.

Which finish should I choose?

Choose Colorbond to match a painted roof, or Zincalume for an unpainted aluminium-zinc finish that needs no maintenance.
