ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a flashing member for a roof-penetrating structure, comprising a first flashing portion (2) adapted to provide a seal against a roof and a second flashing portion (3) adapted to provide a seal between the first flashing portion and the roof penetrating structure. The first and second portions (2, 3) are interconnected in the mounted state, so that the flashing member provides a seal between the roof and the roof penetrating structure. In the state of delivery, the first and second portions (2, 3) of the flashing member are interconnected with each other in sliding engagement allowing the relative position between the first and second flashing portions to be adjusted during the mounting process. Adjusting means may comprise a first folded over part (11) creating a first narrow fold (13) on the first sheet portion (4) and a second folded-over part (14) creating a second narrow fold (16) on the second sheet portion (6), the two folds (13, 16) meshing with each other. The flashing member may comprise a corner element (10) arranged substantially perpendicularly to the first flashing portion (2) at an end thereof. The invention also relates to a flashing kit.
