Since 2013, Global Roofing Solutions’ Klip-Tite™ has achieved remarkable success, with over 4 million square metres rolled and sold. The concealed-fix roofing system was developed to accommodate the effect of thermal expansion and contraction of roofing sheets under extreme temperatures and to provide a watertight low-pitch roof.
Performance on site
Klip-Titeâ„¢ mobile mills produce long sheets to any length on-site, enhanced by motorised driven de-coilers to ensure that the sheet strip is not under tension when fed into the roll-former.
This exceptional feature effectively reduces oil canning, enabling the seamless installation of longer sheet lengths onto the roof ramp. By reducing on-site handling, these sheets can effortlessly be pushed onto the roof level.
Benefits
Independently tested, Klip-Titeâ„¢ outperforms any other roofing profile available in South Africa in terms of wind upliftment.
Available in aluminium-zinc, galvanised, aluminium, and painted finishes, offering flexibility and choice.
The Klip-Titeâ„¢ profile pan remains flat and resistant to bowing upwards during high winds and maintains its water-carrying capacity.
Sheets are cut to size using a guillotine during roll-forming, ensuring a clean and precise cut. This neat, gutter-end guillotine cut optimises water drainage and minimises edge-creep issues that can occur with rough cuts (e.g., friction shaw) or burrs.
Full-width concealed-fix KL700 Plus clips with pilot holes cover the entire width of the sheet, acting as a guide for installers, facilitating accurate and efficient installation. This ensures the correct installation that meets tested performance standards.
Klip-Titeâ„¢ is an advanced concealed fix roof sheeting solution, surpassing the wind uplift capabilities of all other options available in South Africa.
