Where is the flashing over tiles with a length of 2 m used?
This profile is placed over the roofing covering at a linear junction with a vertical surface. The inclined arm rests on the tile area, and the vertical one is led towards the wall so that the water remains on the covering. The specific arrangement depends on the type and relief of the tile, so the profile is checked against the actual detail before installation.
What is the geometry of the flashing over tiles?
The element is 2 m long and has two main arms of 140 mm each. The technical diagram shows a vertical arm of 14 cm and a second arm of 14 cm, open at an angle to follow the roof plane over the tiles. Small end folds finish the profile. The angle is not numerically specified, so compatibility is checked on site rather than assumed.
In what colors is the flashing over tiles offered?
The options are gloss RAL 8017 and gloss RAL 7016. The brown RAL 8017 and anthracite RAL 7016 allow coordination with commonly used colors of roofing coverings and other flashings. The choice in Shopify is at the variant level and has a separate SKU. For a visually uniform system, it is best to compare all sheet metal elements using an actual sample.
How does the flashing over tiles differ from the gable flashing?
Both products are two meters long and have arms of 140 × 140 mm, but their cross-sectional profiles differ. The flashing over tiles has an open inclined arm designed to follow the roof plane over the covering. The gable flashing is shown as a more pronounced L-profile for the junction between two surfaces. The choice is made based on the diagram and the actual joint, not just the dimensions.
What measurements from the site are needed before ordering flashing over tiles?
Measure the linear length of the junction, the slope of the roof pitch, the height for leading up the wall, and the required width over the tiles. Also check the height of the profile of the covering, the locations of bends, and the method for top sealing. If the 140 mm arms or the factory angle do not provide proper fitting, another cut must be chosen.
Can the flashing over tiles be fixed arbitrarily through the water path?
No, fasteners and overlaps must be positioned so as not to create uncontrolled openings along the water path. The exact scheme depends on the roofing covering, the wall, and the substrate system. The upper edge towards the wall is protected with a suitable detail or sealing, and adjacent two-meter profiles overlap in the correct direction. Installation is specified by the joint contractor.
