Impact
Resistant Shingles.
Note: Off ridge vents should be used. Use of
shingle-over ridge vent will affect the impact
resistance classi cation.
Complete shingle application on roof deck
before applying hip and ridge shingles. Hip
shingles must be applied before ridge shingles. If a
new roof is being applied over an existing roof,
remove the old hip and ridge shingles to obtain
a level application. Each shingle is perforated
for separation into three Hip & Ridge shingles.
High Wind: To maintain the 130-MPH wind
warranty you must nail each hip and ridge
shingle with 4 nails and hand seal each shingle
using the High Wind Zone application.
See Fig. 3
Precautionary Notes
The manufacturer will not be responsible for
problems resulting from any deviation from
the recommended application instructions
and the following precautions.
(A) Handling: Use extra care in handling
shingles when the temperature is below
40°F (5°C). DO NOT drop bundles.
Shingles can be broken easily in cold
weather or their edges damaged in hot
weather. DO NOT attempt to separate
shingles by “breaking” them over another
object such as a ridge.
(B) Fastener requirement: Use galvanized
steel, stainless steel, or aluminum
nails minimum 12 gauge shank with /
8
inch diameter head. Owens Corning
recommends that fasteners comply with
ASTM F1667. Check local building codes.
All fasteners must penetrate at least ¾
inch into the wood deck or completely
through sheathing.
(C) Fastening: Drive all fasteners until they are
 ush with the surface of the shingle. Special
care must be taken when using pneumatic
nail guns. Nails are to be driven straight so
the entire head is  ush against the shingle
but does not cut the shingle surface. An
improperly adjusted pneumatic gun can
result in raised fasteners causing sealing
failure, raised tabs, leaks, or blow-off. Place
fasteners 6 ¼ inch from the butt edge
of the shingle and above the sealant strip
(see Fig. 1) Do not apply fasteners in the
sealant strip.
(D) Storage: Store in a covered, ventilated
area at a maximum temperature of 110°F
(43°C). Stack in a  at fashion (maximum
of 24 bundles high). Protect shingles from
weather when stored at the job site. Do
not store near steam pipes, radiators, etc.
(E) All exposed material must be rated Class
A by Underwriters Laboratories, to
maintain a Class A system.
Hip & Ridge Application
1. Apply Hip & Ridge as shown, bending
them over the hip or ridge lengthwise.
See Fig. 1
2. Apply ridge after hips have been applied,
beginning on end of ridge opposite
prevailing wind direction. See Fig. 1
3. Apply shingles with a 6 inch exposure.
4. Fasten each shingle with 2 fasteners on
each side, 1 inch and 2 inches from the
edge and 6 ¼ inch from the exposed end.
See Fig. 2
FOR 130-MPH WIND WARRANTY
Apply a ¼ inch wide bead of Elastomeric
Sealant that meets ASTM C-920
approximately 1 inch in from edge and
approximately 5 inches long to each side of
the hip and ridge shingle. See Fig 3
5. Apply remaining hip and ridge shingles in
the same manner with a 6 inch exposure.
