Abstract:
1. A single piece configurable split-flashing apparatus comprising: a separable flange portion adapted for sealing to a roof surface, the flange portion being substantially planar and having an in-plane spiral configuration with a central opening and first and second adjoining flange end portions adjoined in a radially offset configuration, the flange portion being separable between the first and second flange end portions; a collar portion having a continuous curved wall which extends generally orthogonally from the flange portion proximate to and circumferentially about the central opening and in a spiral configuration wherein a first edge of the curved wall of the collar portion is radially offset from a second edge of the curved wall of the collar portion to thereby form an opening in the collar portion; a collar cap portion separably attached to an edge of the continuous curved wall of the collar portion at a distal end from the flange portion and extending between the first edge of the collar; the split-flashing apparatus being in an installed configuration wherein the first and second flange end portions are separated and the collar cap portion is detached from the distal end of the collar portion whereby the split-flashing apparatus is positionable about a protrusion on a roof by positioning the flange portion on the roof surface and encircling the protrusion, and the collar portion substantially surrounding the protrusion from the flange portion to the distal end of the curved wall of the collar portion.
