In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Meet a reliable, purpose-built flashing solution: Amerimax 8 in. W x 12 in. L Galvanized Steel Step Flashing Shingle in Silver. This multi-purpose flashing unit is engineered to protect roof seams, joints, and penetrations—from chimneys to vents—by guiding water away from vulnerable areas. Crafted from galvanized steel and finished in a reflective silver, it delivers lasting corrosion resistance and a clean, low-profile look on most roofs. At 0.018 inches thick, it strikes the right balance between rigidity and pliability to fit a range of roof profiles.

  • Size and fit: 8 in W x 12 in L, designed to suit common step-flashing footprints for residential installations.
  • Durability: 0.018 in (0.45 mm) thick galvanized steel provides robust weather resistance without adding unnecessary bulk.
  • Corrosion resistance: Galvanized steel construction stands up to rain, snow, and humidity for long-lasting performance.
  • Aesthetic and compatibility: Silver finish blends with a wide range of shingle colors and metal flashings.
  • Versatility: Multi-purpose flashing type suitable for multiple joint and penetration applications.
  • Convenience: One piece per package simplifies ordering and installation.

Ideal for step flashing along roof edges where shingles meet walls, this piece is well-suited for round-the-house needs like around chimneys, roof vents, skylights, and dormer integrations. Whether you’re renovating an existing roof or installing new flashing with fresh shingles, this Amerimax piece provides a dependable seal and a clean transition from roof to wall.

Use scenarios include:

  • Sealing chimney and vent penetrations on asphalt or metal roofs.
  • Closing gaps at dormers or skylights where roof planes intersect.
  • Retrofit projects where a sturdy, single-piece flashing solution is preferred.

Practical installation tips:

  • Position the flashing so it slides under the bottom course of shingles and overlaps the top of the lower course to promote water shedding.
  • Overlap adjacent pieces by at least 2 inches to maintain a continuous seal.
  • Secure with appropriate fasteners and seal the joints with compatible roofing sealant for best results.
  • Cut to fit with tin snips and smooth rough edges to prevent tearing or snagging during installation.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
