Product Information

Full details

The Velux Recessed Slate Flashing with BDX Insulation Collar is an essential installation solution for homeowners and professionals looking to achieve a streamlined, energy-efficient finish for MK06 roof windows. Designed specifically for natural slate roofs, this kit allows the window to sit 40mm deeper into the roof structure, providing superior thermal performance and a sleek, low-profile aesthetic. While it offers excellent weatherproofing and insulation, users must ensure their roof pitch falls within the 20° to 90° range and that their roofing material is compatible with standard slate specifications.
