32 X 16 X 1 Half Round No Flange Metal Attic Exhaust Vent
Arched gable vents are easier than most think.
The width and height determine the arch.
Not the diameter nor half circumference.
Pictured here is a 32 x 16 as a true half round.

Half Round metal attic exhaust vents
There is no flange added to this curved vent.
Yet the face trim is flat and smooth.
The depth is 1" so the slat spacing is 1" also.
And if your screen shows any part of this vent as pink or tan, trust me the entire vent is white.
To form the entire face trim flat without the pie crust appearance, we notch the back trim and turn each tab to overlap the edge of the next tab.
This allows the rear of the vent to mimic the face arch exact.
Aluminum insect screen and then wire mesh was added to prevent squirrels, racoons, roof rats and even field mice from entering the attic through the vent area.
With all this, this small vent still has 116 square inches of net free air.
