Product Information

Full details

The CavityTrays Gable Abutment Intermediate Tray is an essential weatherproofing component designed for professional masons and contractors working on roof-to-wall junctions. It provides superior moisture ingress protection where a roof abuts a vertical wall, ensuring the structural integrity of the building envelope. While it offers exceptional versatility across a wide range of roof pitches and cavity widths, it requires precise installation during the initial wall construction to be effective.
