Modern, spectacular roofing material, easy to install, reliable in operation, affordable cost. Of course, such is the metal tile, precisely because of its remarkable properties, this material is chosen by many when building their own home. Today, you can purchase high-quality metal tiles in Shymkent on the Metal Profile website. Let's take a look at what is attractive metal tile to choose from.
Advantages of metal tiles
Molded sheets, dressed in a multi-layered decorative and protective outfit, gained popularity not without reason.First, let's look at the material from the point of view of economics. It is light, which means that powerful supporting structures are not required - it is already profitable. A large area of sheets, numerous additional elements (ridge, valley, etc.) and cutting offered by sellers simplify and speed up the installation process - this can also be saved.
Properly cut and laid, high-quality metal tiles worth 300-400 rubles. / sq. m will last at least 30 years, without needing continuous periodic painting. The key word here is “high-quality”, just such a tile can be found at the “Metal Profile” break. However, you need to understand the quality of the material yourself. To understand what and in what case it is worth paying, you need to at least understand a little about what and how this super-roof is made of.
Features of the production of metal tiles
For the production of metal tiles, sheet metal is used - steel or (less often) aluminum - 0.4-0.7 mm thick. On both sides it is galvanized, primed, subjected to additional processing - passivated. A layer (or layers) of colored polymer is then applied to the outside. The material already painted in this way is passed through a special machine, which gives it a shape both in the longitudinal and in the transverse direction.
Finally, in conclusion, a protective varnish can be rolled on the “back” side. In total, there are 3-4 layers from the bottom, up to 8 from the top. It is clear that not least the appearance and durability of the roof will depend on the quality of protection. That is, from the uniformity and number of processing steps, and, of course, the properties of polymer "clothes".
Is the durability of a metal tile roof related to the thickness of the metal base?
In principle, yes, because the thinner the metal, the less rigidity of the sheet and, therefore, it is easier to damage it. So, on temporary buildings, small sheds, gazebos, visors, it is quite acceptable to use the “budget” option - 0.4 mm. Where the roof area is large, and it is planned to operate the structure for a long time, a material with a thickness of at least 0.5 mm should be preferred.
However, it is not entirely correct to put the quality of the goods in absolute dependence on this parameter. Much more important here is the quality of rolled steel, which must have a small but necessarily constant thickness along the entire length of the web and, of course, correspond to the declared strength. As we already understood, the choice of raw materials (metal thickness, type of polymer coating) affects the price of metal tiles. And the amount of zinc per 1 sq. m, the quality of the soil and, of course, the fame of the brand.
