RT-4622-6

RT-4622-6 PVC Rafter Tail 

RT-4622-6 gathers its detailing into one tight group: two small steps and a hooked notch set close together, then a smooth wave to the end. The cluster gives the tail a carved, layered look that plain-notched designs lack. It is decorative cellular PVC that recreates exposed rafter ends, with no structural duty. 

Stacked steps before the wave 

Starting roughly a quarter of the way from the wall, the underside of RT-4622-6 drops through two small steps in quick succession and finishes the group with a hooked notch. A short level run follows, then an S-curve that dips and climbs to a slim square tip under the straight top edge. 

The layered cuts are what separate it from RT-4612-6, which has a single hooked notch at about the same point, and from RT-4610-4. Where more ornament is wanted, as on Spanish Revival, Mediterranean or Tuscan-style homes, the stepped group adds texture without crowding the end. 

Material notes 

Behind the carved look is hollow-core cellular PVC, fabricated with HB Elements’ patented technique. Treat RT-4622-6 as trim: it must not support framing or loads. 

A cleat and adhesive are included for attachment. Trim the tail on site when the overhang calls for less length, and fix it against PVC soffit, stucco, wood or cement fiber; paint goes on after minimal surface prep. 

Soffit system fit 

Over a slatted nickel joint ceiling such as NJP-SL-5-12, the fine shadow lines echo the small steps on each tail, which also hide the panel seams. HB fascia and frieze board belong to the same soffit ceilings collection; the tail is available separately as well.
