"TechnoNIKOL Shinglas" - a flexible tile, the price of which will differ depending on the collection, can even be used for domed roofs. The history of shingles spans over 100 years. It first appeared in the United States, where to this day it is the most popular material for roofing. There is an explanation for this, namely:
- easy installation;
- availability;
- good practice;
- attractiveness.
Relatively recently, Russian consumers were also able to buy this tile, which has been liked by homeowners, professional builders and architects since the day it appeared on the market.
Description
Flexible tile "TechnoNIKOL" has 3 components:
- bas alt granulate;
- improved bitumen;
- warming base.
Fiberglass acts as the last layer. The characteristics of the roof will depend on the quality of these components. Fiberglass is a non-woven material, which consists of glass fibers evenly distributed over the surface. The result is high tensile strength and impressive elasticity.
The material does not rot or corrode. The flexible tile "Technonikol" is made according to a special technology, which involves the processing of bitumen. The technique is aimed at increasing the heat resistance of the coating. In its natural state, bitumen has a slight heat resistance, which varies from 35 to 45 °C. However, these parameters are not sufficient for rooftop operation.
Flexible tile "TechnoNIKOL", which you can install yourself, is a ready-made material based on improved bitumen, which has almost no temperature restrictions during operation. Thanks to the bas alt dressing, the coating is protected from atmospheric and mechanical influences.
You can not be afraid of an avalanche of snow, because the base of the roof will have a rough structure. Bas alt does not fade, so the design will retain its attractive appearance for a long time. On the reverse side, the shingle is treated with sand, which prevents tiles from sticking together during storage and transportation. On this side, a bitumen-based adhesive strip is applied, which is protected by a siliconized film. Due to the presence of this adhesive surface, it was possible to achieve sintering of the elements during installation.
Varieties of flexible tiles "TechnoNIKOL": collection "Continent"
"TechnoNIKOL shinglas" - a flexible tile, which is divided into several collections. One of them is "Continent", which is a coating that has all the advantages of shingles and has the effect of an exclusive 3D design.
Flexible tile "Technonikol" has an original appearance, multilayer structure, high strength, resistance to mechanical factors and the environment. The warranty is 60 years. On sale you can find laminated tiles of the Continent series, which contain two or three layers of fiberglass, interconnected under the influence of temperature and pressure. The upper petals of the shingle differ in shape from the lower layer, which makes the surface embossed, and the roof is ultimately more expressive. Such a flexible tile "TechnoNIKOL", the price of which is 1183 rubles/m2, has a fairly high heat resistance equal to 110 ° С.
Characteristics of tiles "Technonikol" collection "Continent"
The basis of this material is fiberglass. Its density, as in all other cases, is 110 g/m2. The softening temperature of the material is equivalent to 125 °C. Sprinkling during transportation and loading / unloading may be lost in the amount of 1.2% per sample. The shingle dimensions are 1000 x 349 x 9.6mm.
Reviews about the tile collection "Ranch"
Consumers love thatThe tile of the Ranch collection is laminated and consists of two layers. It is known to the consumer quite recently, but has already managed to gain popularity. For one square meter you will have to pay 263 rubles. For such a roof, the guarantee from the manufacturer is 20 years.
According to buyers, this tile has increased strength, because two layers of fiberglass are much more reliable. Buyers emphasize that the material has a large thickness and durability. When carrying out work on a conventional soft roof, another one will have to be strengthened, which ensures the reliability of the structure. The upper layer is slightly different from the lower one in shape, and the bas alt granules on the petals vary in shade. According to buyers, this gives an unusual appearance to the coating.
Specifications
The characteristics of the tiles of this collection are almost the same as those of the manufacturer. So, it is based on fiberglass, the density of which remains the same as in the case described above. The heat resistance is 110 ° C, but it is also important to remember the softening point, which is 125 ° C. One sample may lose 1.2% sprinkles. Length, width and material thickness are 1000 x 335 x 5.4 mm.
Overview of some varieties of TechnoNIKOL tiles
On sale you can find the "Country" collection, which is a two-layer material made using a special technology. The shingles have increased tightness and light resistance, and a 35-year manufacturer's warranty.
If you are interested in two-layer tiles, then you can also consider the Jazz collection, which has a natural color achieved by multi-colored bas alt granulate. This material is guaranteed for 50 years.
The tile of the Western collection, which is a premium material, will last even longer. The coating will reliably protect the house from the negative effects of the external environment at any time of the year. You can find four original colors in the collection.
Mounting Features
In the process of laying the covering material for the roof described in the article, you will need a lining carpet for TechnoNIKOL flexible tiles. It is a rolled waterproofing material that is absolutely waterproof. Its heat resistance is 100°C and its elongation is 2%.
However, the installation technology implies the need to comply with some other rules. For example, when fastening tiles, it is necessary to use galvanized nails with wide hats, the number of which will depend on the angle of inclination of the slope. When nailing, it is necessary to ensure that the cap is in the same plane with the surface. If we are talking about the "Country" collection, then the nail should be fastened in place of two parts of the tile.
Conclusion
Flexible tile "TechnoNIKOL" is a bituminous material, which has the form of rectangular modules, called shingles. Byon one edge on the products there are figured cutouts that overlap. This covering material is ideal for pitched structures of complex and simple configurations.
