TapcoSlate Black Synthetic Hip Master - Box of 10

TapcoSlate Black Synthetic Hip Master - Box of 10

The TapcoSlate Black Synthetic Hip Master - Box of 10 is a dry-fix hip ventilation system designed to fit beneath compatible hip and ridge systems. Suitable for TapcoSlate Classic Ridge/Hip and DaVinci Select Shake Ridge/Hip, it provides effective ventilation along the hip while maintaining a neat and discreet roof profile.

Effective Hip Ventilation

The HipMaster features a patented triple-baffle system designed to help prevent wind-driven rain and snow from entering the roof space. An integrated internal filter also helps keep insects, leaves and other debris out, providing additional protection for the roof ventilation pathway. The system provides 10,000mm²/m of ventilation, making it suitable for both warm and cold roof applications while providing ventilation above the stated regulatory minimum.

Low-Profile and Discreet Design

Designed to blend neatly into the finished roof, the HipMaster has a low-profile design that remains unobtrusive once installed. It is suitable for roof pitches between 14° and 45°, making it suitable for a wide range of compatible hip roof applications.

Strong and Durable Construction

The HipMaster is built with structural ribs and dedicated nailing supports to provide a robust, crush-resistant design. This helps it withstand accidental impacts, including hammer blows during installation and falling branches, while also helping to resist cracking. Built-in end caps adjust to the roof pitch, while the ship-lap design allows for natural expansion and contraction as temperatures change. Together, these features help maintain a secure and reliable ventilation detail through changing weather conditions.

Simple Installation

Self-aligning, interlocking ends make the HipMaster straightforward to position correctly during installation. It can also be joined with RidgeMaster Plus ridge ventilation, allowing ventilation to continue smoothly between compatible hip and ridge sections.

Box Contents and Coverage

The TapcoSlate Black Synthetic Hip Master is supplied in boxes of 10 units. Each unit measures 4ft (1.2m) in length, with one complete box providing approximately 12 linear metres of hip coverage.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
