DETAIL A
GAF Seal-A-Ridge® Ridge Cap Shingles Application Instructions:
(1) Step One – Separate each piece of GAF Seal-A-Ridge® Ridge Cap Shingles into three individual
ridge cap shingle pieces at perforations (see Figure 1).
Figure 1
(2) Step Two – Begin laying full ridge cap shingle with a 6-2/3” exposure beginning at the bottom of the

(3) Step Three – Apply ridge cap using 2 nails per piece 7” to 7-5/8” back from the exposed end and 1”
to 2” up from the edge (see Figure 2 for location of nails). Use only corrosion resistant zinc coated steel
or aluminum, 10-12 gauge, barbed, deformed or rings shank roofing nails with heads 3/8” (9.5mm) to
7/16” (12mm) in diameter. Nails should be long enough to penetrate at least 3/4” (19mm) into wood
decks or just through plywood decks. Nails must be driven flush with the surface of the shingle. Over
driving will damage the shingle. Raised nails will interfere with the wind resistance of the shingles.
Special Application Section:
For Cold Weather Application
In cold weather, warm GAF Seal-A-Ridge® Ridge Cap Shingles before bending.
When self-sealing is delayed due to cold weather, apply quarter-sized dabs of an approved asphalt
plastic cement (must conform to ASTM D4586 Type I or Type II) between ridge cap pieces and
press firmly to insure good contact between pieces.
For High-Wind Zones
In high wind areas or for maximum wind resistance, apply a ¼” wide bead of a Miami Dade
Approved ACTM C 920 Polyurethane Sealant to each ridge cap shingle parallel to the ridge ¾” –
1” from the shingle edge. (see Figure 3).
