Cop-R-Shield (LEED Points)

Advanced Building Products is proud to introduce Cop-R-Shield flashing for residential wood frame construction. With a track record of over 30 years in the residential and commercial industry, Cop-R-Shield has worked extremely well as a termite shield and thru-wall flashing on wood framed construction.

New preservatives such as Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) used on pressure treated lumber create a compatibility concern between aluminum flashing and treated lumber. Certain dissimilar metals, such as copper and aluminum, cause corrosion when in contact with each other.

Cop-R-Shield consists of a full sheet of copper, available in weights of 2 oz. and 3 oz. per square foot with rolls either 20' or 60' long.

Cop-R-Shield PC      

This high quality copper laminated flashing provides multiple benefits when working with treated lumber. The copper side of the flashing is compatible with the framing, while the UV protected poly provides a barrier between the metal fasteners and the treated lumber. The system provides a simple solution to solving incompatibility issues when fastening treated lumber.

Note: Cop-R-Shield PC is adhered using a hot melt glue.
