{"product_id":"gaf-120-ft-starter-strip-shingles-gafs","title":"GAF 120 ft. Starter Strip Shingles","description":"\u003cp\u003eStarter strip shingles are the first course laid at the eave and up the rake before any field shingles go down. GAF supplies them as pre-cut asphalt strips in a bundle, so the crew does not have to field-cut three-tab shingles, reverse them and hope the adhesive lands where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach strip is a fiberglass-reinforced asphalt shingle with a factory-applied adhesive bead positioned near the lower edge. Once the first course of field shingles is nailed over it, that adhesive bonds the shingle tabs down at the perimeter, which is where wind uplift begins on a steep-slope roof. The strips also cover the joints between the first course of shingles so water shedding off the roof cannot find a path to the deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation follows the usual sequence: underlayment and eave protection first, starter strip set flush to or slightly overhanging the drip edge, then the field shingles starting at the eave. The same strip is run up the rakes on jobs where rake protection is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-cut starter course eliminates cutting and reversing field shingles at the eaves and rakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-applied adhesive positioned along the lower edge to bond the first course of shingles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeals the perimeter of the roof, where wind uplift and shingle blow-off typically start\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers the cutouts and joints in the first course so run-off cannot reach the deck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiberglass-reinforced asphalt construction, the same material class as the field shingles it sits under\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight factory edge produces a consistent, even line along the eave and rake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks under standard three-tab and laminated architectural asphalt shingles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged by the bundle for straightforward take-off by linear foot of eave and rake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarter course at the eaves of asphalt shingle roofs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRake edges where perimeter sealing is specified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew residential steep-slope roofing over underlayment and drip edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTear-off and re-roof work on houses, garages and dormers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-slope-to-steep transitions and small outbuilding roofs finished with asphalt shingles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e GAF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Starter strip shingles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiberglass-reinforced asphalt shingle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdhesive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory-applied sealant strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoof Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steep-slope asphalt shingle roofing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation On Roof:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eaves and rakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Of Sale:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bundle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line:\u003c\/strong\u003e GAF Pro-Start (GAF's starter strip line supplied at this bundle coverage)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120'\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGAF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"GAF","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55112698462547,"sku":"GAFS","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/7743\/4195\/files\/gaf-120-ft-starter-strip-shingles-gafs.webp?v=1790734539","url":"https:\/\/arch-9365.myshopify.com\/zh\/products\/gaf-120-ft-starter-strip-shingles-gafs","provider":"ARCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
