A square is 100 square feet of covered area, but knowing how many squares there is in a bundle of ridge caps is not of much value. It is important to know how many feet of ridge can be covered with a bundle.
if you're using 3-tad shingles for your caps, it's generally 30-32 feet. That's based on 5 3/4" cap exposure with 21 shingles to a bundle. Some companies have smaller shingles, but more in a bundle. Owens corning have 27 with 5" exposure, giving you more length but less width.
Not sure, but one bundle covers 33.33 square feet. 3 bundles to a square.
