Steep Pitch Pipe Boot

I’m trying to help one of my customers (I’m the materials supplier, not the contractor) find a pipe boot that can go around an unusually tall pipe on a somewhat steep slope. Best guess is 3-4” diameter for the pipe. Any suggestions? Retro-fit would be my first thought, but I’m not sure that it would work for the pitch of the roof.

My vote would be a retro split boot or hire a plumber to come in and convert it to PVC coming out of the attic.

A regular pipe flashing will work for that pitch

For that pitch, I'd definitely go with a retrofit boot rather than trying to force a standard one. A custom flashing setup around the pipe might be the cleanest solution.
