Eliminate Flashing and Roof Leaks With Cast Aluminum Rail Base
The Top Rack Cast Aluminum Rail Base gives installers a faster, more reliable way to secure TRT rails while protecting the roof from leaks. By bonding directly to the shingles with butyl rubber pads, it creates a watertight seal without the need for traditional flashing—delivering long-term strength and peace of mind. Whether mounted to roof decking or anchored to a rafter, the base provides a solid, code-compliant foundation built for lasting performance.Key Benefits
