Lead strips are often used in construction to provide a weather proof barrier and sealer, particularly, in historic building restoration. Examples included Lead flashing for roofing systems, where a masonry chimney connects to the house and a leak proof roof penetrations. Lead T-caps are used to bridge and seal gaps in masonry walls.
The properties of lead make it ideal for this kind of application, Lead is malleable so it will easily conform to the roof contours and lead will also stand up to inclement weather particularly observed in the North Eastern United States.
