rafter end block
A rafter end block is a polyurethane block piece that closes the end point of the rafter row at the roof eaves and finishes the line neatly. It is mounted at the start or end point of the rafter covering elements running along the eaves to give a clean termination at the edge. The polyurethane material is lightweight and applied with assembly adhesive and screws; outdoors it resists moisture, sunlight and impact, does not rot, crack or swell and can be painted. Unlike timber it is unaffected by moisture and needs no maintenance. Because it is moulded, every block has the same size and profile. Polure produces the rafter end block in different size options.
