It is an acceptable application to use a tripolymer type caulk or sealant because basically the caulk will adhere to the shingles and then form a barrier that will keep the weather from entering the gap between the dimensional shingles and the vent. While it is true that the caulk will not adhere to the vent it will still serve the purpose of acting as a barrier. - [Default HubSpot Blog](https://semetals-1971711.hs-sites.com/blog) [![Gibraltar Building Accessories Logo](https://help.gibraltarbuildingproducts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/GBAD.jpg?width=2500&height=777&name=GBAD.jpg "Gibraltar Building Accessories Logo")](https://www.gibraltarbuildingproducts.com/) www.gibraltarbuildingproducts.com Help Center Copyright © 2026, Gibraltar Building Accessories Division
