Wind Uplift Test Certificate
Certificate type
Concealed-fix aluminium apex capping providing durable weather protection, ventilation and effective rainwater run-off to both sides of the parapet.
Aluminium parapet capping system for weatherproofing and ventilating upstanding walls, formed with a central apex across the top face to create positive falls to both sides.
SnapLok Apex Capping provides a clean, durable and concealed-fix aluminium solution for protecting upstanding parapet walls where the capping is formed with a central apex across the top face.
The apex profile creates falls to both sides of the parapet, helping to shed rainwater efficiently while also providing a distinctive architectural roof-edge detail. Precision-formed aluminium capping sections locate securely onto concealed SnapLok retaining brackets, avoiding visible fixings or penetrations through the finished surface.
