BATTENS
Treated tiling battens of approved quality (E.g. tanalised), of suitable section,
(See the UltraTile estimating chart) to be laid at 365mm centres, (for 0.45mm
thick) or 363mm centres (for 0.9mm thick), except the eaves batten (see eaves
section), and secured to the rafters using galvanised nails. Joints in the battens
should be staggered and meet halfway across the top of the rafters, as standard
code of practice.
UNDERLAY

the downturn of the ridge into the tile upstand and face of the batten, using
five nails on each side.
ANGLE RIDGE (VENTILATED) ROOF PITCHES FROM 10° TO 35°
Felt underlay to be cut back allowing a continuous 12.5mm air gap on either
side of the centre line of the ridge.
If necesary, the top course of tiles to be cut and bent using a guillotine
and bender (available from Britmet Tileform Ltd). Each tile to be secured using
four fixing nails driven through the downturn nose of the tile into the battens.
A batten, not exceeding 50mm x 50mm to be fitted on the universal vent piece

EAVES
The bottom course of tiles to be secured using four no. coloured, 2.6mm x 50mm
galvanised fixing nails driven vertically through the tile, as near to the high
point of the tile profile as possible and into the fascia board, or through
the eaves batten placed approx. 20mm behind the fascia board if the UltraTile
eaves ventilation system is used. These nail heads to be sealed using the UltraTile
finishing kit.
The top of the fascia board or eaves vent, if used, to be in line with top
of battens. Fit Lay Board or Tilting Fillet at the eaves if appropriate, to
ensure any moisture on the underlay drains into gutter.
Roof pitch above 15 degrees.
The top of the fascia board should fixed 23mm below the top face of the eaves
batten allowing for the UltraTile, 10mm eaves vent system.
Roof pitch below 15 degrees.
The top of the fascia board should be fixed 25mm below the top face of the eaves
batten allowing for the UltraTile, 25mm eaves vent system. Note: Where the insulation
follows the roof slope, the UltraTile ventilation tray should be installed between
the rafters.
VALLEY
The valley should be formed from lead, moulded glass fibre or similar approved
lining, supported on valley boards.
Tile battens should project over the valley to provide fixing for the tiles.

should be cut and bent up against the timber barge batten.
The UltraTile scribed barge board cover to be secured using five fixing nails

driven vertically into the barge batten (the heads of the vertically fixed nails
to be sealed, using the UltraTile finishing kit).
SIDE WALL FLASHING
UltraTile scribed side-wall flashing to be secured using fixing nails, one driven
vertically into each batten (these nail heads to be covered, using the UltraTile

nailing through the nose of the tile, as previously described. Nails must not
penetrate the vent tile.
The UltraTile inline vent tile can also be used as a weather protected exit
point for soil pipes or extractor fan ducts by means of a flexi hose and pipe
adapter that connects the vent to 100mm stacts or duct work.
