Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Steel drip edge like this 26 GA C6 profile offers a crisper, stiffer edge line than light aluminum and resists denting during installation. Install at eaves over the underlayment with the 30-degree flange lapped under the first shingle course, and keep fasteners back from the edge to avoid telegraphing through the metal.
Drip edge flanges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when cutting and handling steel edge metal.
Order the TopShield Steel C6 Drip Edge for a durable, crisp roof-edge finish.
