Specifically engineered for a variety of roof penetration types, the Master Flash® Middy combines flexibility with exceptional durability to provide a watertight seal for pipes and cables ranging in size from 3mm to 50mm. Made from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), a high-performance rubber material known for its longevity and weather resistance, this flashing ensures your roof remains secure and leak-free, even in the harshest conditions.

Key Features of the Master Flash® Middy

1.Dual Port Design for Enhanced Versatility

One of the standout features of the Master Flash® Middy roof pipe flashing is its two-port design, which allows it to accommodate a wide range of pipe and cable sizes. Whether you are working with a larger pipe for plumbing, venting, or HVAC systems, or you need to seal cables related to electrical systems or solar panels, this flashing provides a one-stop solution.

• • Center Port: Accommodates pipes and cables with diameters between 0-50mm. This is ideal for thicker pipes or cables, making it versatile enough to handle various types of roofing penetrations, including those found in HVAC systems or larger piping used in plumbing and venting applications.
  • Secondary Port: Designed to fit cables or smaller pipes with diameters ranging from 3-9mm. This makes it particularly useful for the wiring associated with photovoltaic (solar) panels, as well as smaller pipes used for irrigation, venting, or electrical conduit systems.

This dual-port design makes the Master Flash® Middy the go-to flashing for roofs that require sealing of multiple penetrations of varying sizes, offering flexibility without compromising performance.

2.Ideal for Photovoltaic (Solar) Panel Installations

Specifically suited for photovoltaic solar panel systems, where both cables and pipes are often present. Solar panels typically require multiple penetrations, including conduit for electrical wiring and sometimes larger pipes for mounting or drainage. This flashing allows solar installers to seal these penetrations effectively, ensuring that both wires and pipes are sealed simultaneously without the need for multiple different flashings.

Its design accommodates the small gauge wiring commonly used in photovoltaic installations (3-9mm cables) as well as the larger pipe systems required for mounting or drainage (up to 50mm), making it the perfect choice for roofing applications involving solar panel systems. Whether you’re installing solar panels in a new build or performing maintenance on an existing installation, the Master Flash® Middy ensures that the roof remains secure, weatherproof, and leak-free.

3.Made from EPDM for Durability and Weather Resistance

Constructed from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), a high-quality, weather-resistant material known for its exceptional performance in demanding outdoor conditions. EPDM rubber is highly resistant to UV rays, ozone, extreme temperatures, and weathering, making it ideal for long-term use on roofs exposed to harsh climates.

EPDM is also flexible, even in freezing temperatures, which allows the flashing to adapt to roof movement without cracking or losing its effectiveness. This makes the Master Flash® Middy an excellent choice for both hot and cold climates, where roofs can expand and contract with temperature fluctuations.
Additionally, EPDM is highly durable and resistant to damage caused by rain, snow, hail, and wind, ensuring that the flashing remains intact and provides long-lasting protection against water infiltration.

4.Square Base for Stability and Easy Installation

The Master Flash® Middy features a square base, which provides increased stability and ease of installation. The square design ensures that the flashing is securely anchored to the roof, reducing the likelihood of shifting or lifting during installation or over time. Its wide base also ensures better coverage, which helps prevent gaps or cracks that could lead to leaks. The square shape is compatible with a variety of roofing materials, including metal, asphalt shingles, and flat roofing systems, making it suitable for a wide range of roofing applications. The square base simplifies the installation process, ensuring that the flashing stays in place and is easy to align with the pipe and cable penetrations. Whether you’re a contractor or a DIY enthusiast, you’ll appreciate how easy it is to install the Master Flash® Middy, making it a cost-effective and efficient solution for roof penetrations.

5.Black Colour for Aesthetic Integration

The Master Flash® Middy comes in a sleek black colour, which ensures a clean and discreet look that blends seamlessly with most roof colours and materials. The black colour not only looks good but also helps to absorb sunlight, which is beneficial for roofs in colder climates as it can help reduce the likelihood of ice formation around the flashing. It also provides excellent UV resistance, further enhancing the longevity and performance of the flashing. Whether you are working on a residential, commercial, or industrial roofing project, the black colour ensures that the flashing is aesthetically pleasing while still offering optimal functionality.

6.Versatile Applications Beyond Solar Panels

While the Master Flash® Middy is ideal for photovoltaic solar panel systems, its versatility extends to many other roofing applications as well. The dual-port design allows it to be used for a variety of applications where both pipes and cables need to be sealed simultaneously. Some common uses include:

• • Ventilation systems: Accommodating both vent pipes and small wiring for fans or exhaust systems.
  • Plumbing: Sealing larger pipes for plumbing systems alongside smaller electrical conduits.
  • HVAC systems: Sealing ductwork or other pipes in commercial and industrial settings.
  • Electrical and Data Cables: Perfect for roofs with electrical, communication, or data cabling penetrations that need to be sealed tightly.

Applications for the Master Flash® Middy

• Photovoltaic Solar Panel Installations: Ideal for sealing the multiple pipe and cable penetrations required by solar panel systems.
• Roof Penetrations for Venting, Plumbing, and HVAC: Works for a wide range of applications involving both pipes and cables.
• Commercial and Residential Roofing: Suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial roof penetrations, offering both aesthetic and functional benefits.

The Master Flash® Middy is a top-tier, versatile solution designed for a variety of roofing applications. With its dual-port design, it can accommodate both larger pipes and smaller cables, making it perfect for photovoltaic solar panel systems, as well as a wide range of other residential, commercial, and industrial roofing needs. Constructed from durable EPDM rubber, the Master Flash® Middy offers long-lasting protection against the elements, while its square base ensures secure and easy installation. Available in a sleek black colour, this flashing provides both functionality and aesthetic integration, making it the go-to solution for roofs with multiple penetrations. Whether you’re working with solar panels, venting systems, plumbing, or electrical wiring, the Master Flash® Middy offers the flexibility, durability, and performance you need to ensure a secure, leak-free roof.
