What is stone roof sheet?
Stone coated steel roof tiles, often referred to as metal roof shingles or stone-coated steel roofing, are a modern and durable roofing solution. These tiles are made from high-quality galvanized steel and are coated with a layer of stone granules, which gives them an aesthetic appeal similar to that of traditional clay, slate, or asphalt shingles.
Advantage of the stone coated roof tiles:
Exceptional Durability: Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, including heavy rain, strong winds, and hailstorms.
Fire Resistance: Non-combustible, making it an ideal choice for areas susceptible to wildfires.
Energy Efficiency: Reflective surface reduces heat absorption, helping to keep your home cooler and lowering energy costs.
Low Maintenance: Highly resistant to cracking, fading, and insect damage, ensuring long-lasting performance with minimal upkeep.
Aesthetic Appeal: Available in a wide range of colors and designs to complement various architectural styles.
Environmentally Friendly: Made from recyclable materials and can be installed over existing roofs, minimizing waste.
Easy Installation: Lightweight design simplifies installation, reducing labor costs and minimizing structural demands.
Long-Term Value: These tiles offer a stylish, durable, and energy-efficient roofing solution that stands the test of time.
How to make the stone coated steel roofing tiles:
Manufacturing stone coated steel roofing tiles involves a series of steps that ensure the tiles are durable, weather-resistant, and aesthetically pleasing.
1. Preparation of the Steel Base
Selection of Steel: Choose high-quality, galvanized steel sheets as the base material. Galvanization provides a protective zinc layer to prevent rust and corrosion.
Cutting: The steel sheets are cut into the desired size and shape for the tiles using precision machinery.
2. Application of Adhesive
Adhesive Layer: Apply a layer of adhesive to the surface of the steel tiles. This adhesive will bond with the stone granules in the next step.
3. Application of Stone Granules
Granule Application: Spread stone granules over the adhesive-coated steel tiles. These granules not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the tiles but also increase their durability and weather resistance.
Curing: Allow the tiles to cure, ensuring that the granules adhere securely to the adhesive layer.
4. Application of Acrylic Coating
Coating Application: Apply an acrylic coating over the stone granules. This coating seals the granules in place and adds an additional layer of protection against the elements.
Drying: Allow the acrylic coating to dry thoroughly. This may involve passing the tiles through a heated drying tunnel.
5. Quality Control
Inspection: Check each tile for defects such as missing granules, uneven coating, or damage. This step ensures that only high-quality tiles are packaged and sold.
Packaging: Once the tiles pass the quality control checks, they are packaged for shipment or storage.
6. Additional Steps (Optional)
Color Coating: In some cases, manufacturers may add a colored coating over the acrylic layer to achieve specific color effects.
Customization: Depending on the manufacturer and customer requirements, tiles can be customized with different shapes, sizes, and finishes.
7. Storage and Handling
Storage: Store the finished tiles in a dry, protected area to prevent damage before installation.
Handling: Handle the tiles with care during installation to avoid chipping or breaking the stone granules.
