Aluminum vs stainless gutter guard.
You can also customize.
Stainless steel costs about as much as copper which is often double or triple the price of aluminum.
Should i go for an aluminum or stainless steel gutter guard system.
Equipped with a micro mesh that allows the water to flow through and debris to pass over.
Easy installation due to its lightweight nature.
The raptor gutter guard is a stainless steel micro mesh guard that promises durability won t warp or rust with changing weather and effectiveness the small holes in the micromesh keep small particles including pine needles and roof grit from entering the gutters and clogging the water flow.
Stainless steel has high tensile strength that can hold the heavy load and on the other hand aluminum is quite a lightweight.
The raptor gutter guard is made from type 304 stainless steel to provide rust and corrosion resistance.
Steel gutters are not rustproof like many other gutter systems.
