Abstract: A structurally robust roof drip edge system including a tail and an outer section contiguous with the tail. The tail includes a locally thin section nailable to a roof substrate. The outer section includes a bridging member connecting an inner footing and an outer footing. The outer footing includes a drip edge profile for directing the flow of water off of a roof. The inner footing is spaced from the outer footing by a suitable distance and configured to be placed against an eave as a positioning aid such that the drip edge can easily and reliably be installed with sufficient spacing for the installation of a fascia board behind the drip edge profile. The drip edge may be bendable to a user-selectable angle between the tail and the outer section to accommodate a range of roof pitches.
