SLATE HOOK BS5534 100mm AISI316 BLACK (BOX 500) – SPECIAL

Description

Stainless Steel Slate Hooks are an alternative fixing to clout nails for fixing Natural Slates, which is used extensively across Europe.

This method offers a cost effective alternative method with lots of bonuses.

Hooks can be used in the most exposed locations and because the slate is supported at four points, the resistance to wind uplift is extremely effective. The top edge of the slate is gripped under the top part of the hook. The shank of the hook runs down along the side of the slates in the next course, and the return grip at the bottom of the hook holds the tail of the slate on top. This means that each slate is held in place by four hooks; one at the head, one at the tail and one on each side. The one at the tail stops the hook from sliding down, the ones at the side prevent it from turning and the one at the head holds it at the batten.

Our hooks confirm to BS5534 & are GRADE 316 SS with a black coating
