Manufacturer Varies by Location Fiberboard Tapered Edge Cant Strip 1.5 in. x 12 in. x 56 ft., Brown
This fiberboard tapered edge is a beveled cant strip placed in the angle where a roof abuts a wall, preventing a sharp bend in the roofing material. The piece measures 1.5 in. x 12 in. x 56 ft., is brown fiberboard, and is sold per board. It cuts easily with a knife and is 100% recyclable.
Key Features:
- Sharp-bend relief: The beveled profile avoids a sharp bend in the roofing material where the roof meets an abutting wall.
- Dimensionally stable: Fiberboard construction keeps the strip dimensionally stable on the roof.
- Easy field cutting: Cuts with a knife for quick on-site fitting.
- Recyclable: Environmentally friendly and 100% recyclable.
- Long run length: 56 ft. of length covers long wall-to-roof transitions per board.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Cant strips are a standard detail at parapet and wall transitions, supporting the membrane through a 45-degree transition instead of a hard corner. Install with the bevel facing the field of the roof and fasten or adhere per the system specification. Field-cut with a sharp knife and butt joints tightly for a smooth transition.
Use a sharp utility knife carefully and keep blade cuts away from your body when trimming fiberboard strips.
