They consist of a rubber cone vulcanized on to a Lead slate base, manufactured from Code 4 Rolled Lead Sheet. The malleability of the Lead base means that unlike similar products that employ aluminium or hard metal bases, BLM Quickslates can be easily shaped or dressed to suit almost any roof profile.

They are used where flue pipes and soil stacks penetrate slate, tile, felt and asphalt covered roofs. Quickslates are also suitable for gas flues, withstanding temperatures of 150°C. Available to suit flat roofs with vertical outlets and 30º - 40º pitched roofs. Quickslates suit most pipe diameters up to 125mm.
