Description:
Certigrade® Number 2 grade, Red Label shingles are an economical alternative to Number 1 grade, Blue Label. The main differences are that limited sapwood and flat grain are allowed. The clear portion of the shingle must extend to a minimum of 254mm from the butt. Limited knots and defects are allowed above the clear portion, though they are unseen once installed as the overlap of the next course covers these defects.
