Is anyone familiar with a product called “Flash-Tite” by Lexcor (a Division of Lexsuco)? It’s a system of Structural Supports for roof top equipment that consists of round, pipe-like, supports of varying heights that can be designed to support various loads. Any history with the system, or alternatives, would be appreciated.

Apparently this stuff is manufactured in Canada and one of my Project Architects is hoping to find a more local source,, or at least an equivalent system.

I check this forum first thing every day. It is seldom that I do not find a discussion (or two, or three) that is relevant to a topic I am dealing with at that very time. Thank you Colin and all the rest who share their knowledge and experience so generously.
