Overview

The Expert's Choice

ZIP System® Roof Sheathing is a high-performance engineered wood panel that combines structural roof sheathing with an integrated water-resistive barrier. When paired with ZIP System® flashing tape or liquid flashing, it creates a sealed roof assembly that helps protect against water damage caused by weather exposure or high-wind events.

Integrated Water-Resistive Barrier

ZIP System® Roof Sheathing features a factory-applied water-resistant overlay that eliminates the need for traditional felt underlayment. When panel seams are sealed, the roof deck is protected from moisture intrusion during construction delays or unexpected weather.

Structural Strength and Stability

Manufactured as high-strength engineered wood panels, ZIP System® Roof Sheathing provides excellent stiffness and load performance. Structural 1-rated panels help meet roof design requirements, including applications in high-wind zones.

Two-Step Installation Process

Installation is streamlined with a simple two-step process: install the panels, then seal the seams. This approach helps reduce labor time and allows interior trades to begin sooner without waiting on traditional underlayment installation.

Durable, Jobsite-Ready Performance

Because the water-resistive barrier is manufactured into the panel, it won’t tear or blow off like traditional felt. This durability helps reduce jobsite repairs and keeps projects moving forward even in challenging conditions.

Why choose ZIP System® Roof Sheathing

Protects the Home’s First Line of Defense

A roof deck is often exposed before the final roofing material is installed. ZIP System® Roof Sheathing helps protect the structure during this critical phase by providing a sealed surface that resists water intrusion.

Compatible with Common Roofing Materials

ZIP System® Roof Sheathing is compatible with a wide range of finished roof coverings, including asphalt shingles, metal roofing, clay and concrete tile, fiberglass shingles, and cedar shingles.

Helps Reduce Callbacks

By eliminating the need for traditional underlayment and reducing the risk of water intrusion, ZIP System® Roof Sheathing helps minimize moisture-related issues that can lead to costly callbacks.

Built for High-Wind Applications

The combination of structural sheathing and sealed seams helps create a more resilient roof assembly, supporting performance in areas subject to strong winds and severe weather events.
