Wind Resistance

Significant wind can cause shingles to blow off the roof deck. Missing shingles can lead to leaks and other interior damage.

The quality and performance of the sealant on a shingle play an important part in wind resistance performance.

Owens Corning certifies our shingles to industry recognized wind resistance standards through independent third-party testing laboratories.

To see the wind resistance warranty on this product, refer to the Technical Information section.

*Shingle products may vary by region. Reviews are based on the reviewer’s actual experience with the product and reflect the honest beliefs and experiences of the reviewer.
We strive to accurately reproduce all photographs of shingles in literature and for onscreen viewing. The roofing product colors you see are as accurate as technology allows. We suggest that you view a roofing display or several shingles to get a better idea of the actual color. To accurately judge your shingle and color choice, we recommend that you view it on an actual roof with a pitch similar to your own roof prior to making your final color selection.
*See actual warranty for complete details, limitations, and requirements.
