Dry Ridge Kit – CROMAR 6m Universal

The Cromar 6m Universal Dry Ridge Kit gives you everything needed to fix a ridge without touching a trowel. It meets BS 8612 and is designed to work across a wide range of roof pitches, making it a reliable choice for roofers who want a clean, consistent finish without the delays that come with wet mortar. The cromar 6m universal dry ridge kit has earned a solid reputation on site precisely because it removes weather dependency from the equation — you can get on with the job even when conditions are less than ideal.

The 6m ventilated ridge roll is 320mm wide, which is wider than most competing systems. That width matters: it ensures at least 75mm of coverage regardless of pitch, so you’re not squinting at the overlap trying to decide if it’s good enough. The roll is perforated for additional airflow, delivering 5,000mm² of ventilation per linear metre, and it comes with a 25mm butyl adhesive strip to keep it seated securely before the clamps go on. Vapour permeable, wind resistant, rain resistant — it does what a ridge covering should do.

What’s in the Cromar Dry Ridge Kit

Each kit covers 6 linear metres of ridge and contains ten batten support brackets, thirteen ridge unions, thirteen 100mm fixing screws, thirteen metal clamping plates, and twenty-six plastic clamping clips. The screws and clamps come pre-bagged so you’re not raking through a box of mixed fixings on a windy roof. Small detail, genuinely useful.

Installation Speed

Compared to mortar-bedded ridge work, the time saving is significant. No mixing, no waiting for a bed to go off, no revisiting the next day to point up cracks. The bracket-and-clamp system goes together methodically and leaves a finish that won’t shrink, crack, or need repointing five years down the line. For high-volume roofing work, the pallet pricing at £18.00 per kit makes the numbers work well too.
