WHY UHDZ

The toughest Timberline.

UHDZ is built on GAF UltraMat, a high-performance fiberglass mat that earns a Class 4 impact rating. It keeps the LayerLock and StrikeZone nailing area from HDZ and adds a dual shadow line for more depth from the street.

Some Texas insurance companies offer a discount for Class 4 roofs. Ask your agent before you choose. We are happy to provide the product paperwork they ask for.

UHDZ QUESTIONS

Straight answers.

What does Class 4 impact rated mean?

UL 2218 Class 4 is the highest impact rating a shingle can earn. In the test, a 2-inch steel ball is dropped on the shingle and it cannot crack. It does not mean the roof can never be damaged by hail.

Will UHDZ lower my insurance?

Some carriers in Texas offer discounts on Class 4 roofs. It depends on your company and policy, so ask your agent first.

Is every UHDZ bundle Class 4?

GAF says UHDZ is Class 4 on packages marked with UltraMat. We order and install the UltraMat version.

Do you install UHDZ in Arizona?

Yes. UHDZ is offered in both Texas and Arizona.
