The tabs have a unique shape and length, and are set at such an angle from the main body of the flashing that they can create pressure where they meet the sheeting corrugations. The 30° angle of the tabs on some versions of these flashings allow them to be tapped with a hammers handle to seat firmly into the profile if necessary.
