Actually, I used to see that shingle quite often here, and posted it in 2006. It lasts better than any other shingle I've ever seen - usually a legitimate thirty to forty years - maybe more. Back when I made the original inquiry, Les came through with the most insightful info about it. I believe he identified it as more a farm product? But, it's some die hard stuff.

Would make sense since IKO is manufactured in this state. It appears that the majority of the manufacturers have stopped making this style of shingle.

Tear off a small corner, look for glass fibers. The reinforced ones are twice as good as the old asphalt T-locks.

Mike,
I need an education here. Where did you grab the URL link for that topic so you could paste in your posting?
I've been searching, but can't seem to find it.

I went to the home page for TIJ and searched "interlocking shingles", but the list of threads that came up was too large, so I went to my own profile and searched "all non-archived posts" and dropped down a bunch of posts until I found it. It did not show in the address bar as anything that I could copy and paste, so I went back to the home page and typed the exact thread name in. Then it came up with a address I could cut and paste.
In short, it's wasn't easy, but doable. Where there's a will, there's a way.
