Product Information

Full details

The Cavity Trays Gable Abutment Intermediate Tray is an essential component for professional roofers and bricklayers seeking reliable moisture management at the junction where a gable roof meets a wall. This tray provides an engineered solution for continuous water discharge along the rake, effectively preventing water ingress into the building envelope. While it offers superior durability and versatility for various wall types, installers should note that it requires precise integration into every brickwork course to ensure maximum effectiveness.

FAQs

What is the minimum roof pitch for this tray?

This tray is suitable for roof pitches of 17.5 degrees and above.

Can this be used on both brick and block walls?

Yes, it is designed for compatibility with both brickwork and rendered blockwork.

Does this tray require a right-hand version?

Yes, if your gable roof slopes upward to the right, you will require the corresponding right-hand version of this tray.

What cavity widths does it accommodate?

The tray is adjustable to fit cavities between 50mm and 160mm.

How often should these trays be installed?

The product is designed to be installed in every single course ascending the rake of the roof.

Troubleshooting

Tray does not sit flush against the inner leaf.

Adjust the telescopic width settings of the tray to match your specific cavity measurement.

Water appears to be pooling at the abutment.

Verify that the tray is installed with a slight downward tilt towards the discharge point and that no mortar has bridged the tray's upstand.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, long-lasting DPC construction
  • High flexibility for varying cavity widths
  • Compatible with both brick and render
  • Specifically engineered for effective rake drainage

Cons

  • Requires installation in every course
  • Orientation-specific (Left-Hand configuration only)
  • Not suitable for pitches below 17.5 degrees

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For proper installation, ensure the tray is leveled within the mortar bed so that the discharge end allows water to exit freely. This product is designed for roofs with a pitch of 17.5 degrees or greater. During the build, ensure no mortar debris blocks the tray, as this can impede water flow. Minimal care is required post-installation, though an initial inspection of the exterior discharge points during the construction phase is recommended to ensure the tray is properly positioned against the roofline flashing.
