decorative rafter tail

A decorative rafter tail is a polyurethane profiled finishing piece that shapes the exposed end of a rafter. It is used under the eaves to give the rafter end a profiled, carved or cut look and to complete the end section decoratively. The polyurethane rafter tail is lightweight and is applied directly to the surface with mounting adhesive; it resists moisture and impact, does not crack or swell, and can be painted in a wood tone. Compared to real wood, it does not rot, attract insects, or warp. Because it is mould-produced, the end profile repeats identically on every piece. Polure manufactures decorative rafter tails in a range of profiles and sizes.
