Abstract
The invention relates to a flashing for a pipe or duct passing through a seamed roof. The flashing comprises a collar at the upper end of which is provided an opening for the pipe or duct, and a substantially flat flange to which the lower end of the collar is joined, which flange is configured to be attached to a portion of a roof, whereby a plane through the upper and lower edges of the opening in the upper end of the collar is set inclined by an angle in a range between 25° and 35° relative to the plane defined by the flange. The opening at the upper end of the collar has an oval or oblong shape, facilitating the use of the flashing at various roof pitch angles without the collar being modified.
