Tile & Specialty Advantages

Why Roofers Choose This System

Tile, slate, and specialty profiles each bring their own attachment considerations. ArcticAnchor™'s low-profile design is built around that variety.

  1. Low-profile design

    Components are designed to sit close to the roof surface, intended to reduce visual impact on tile and specialty profiles.

  2. Attachment engineered for tile

    Mounting is designed with tile, slate, and synthetic tile applications in mind, rather than adapted from a metal-roof system.

  3. Lightweight TitanCore material

    Components use TitanCore, an engineered polymer intended to reduce weight and handling difficulty on the roof.

  4. Color-integrated material

    Color runs through the TitanCore material itself rather than a surface coating, which is intended to help it hold up over time.

Tile & Specialty Details

Built-In Details That Make the Difference

A closer look at the details engineered into the Tile Series system, added here as photos come in from the product team.

Score Marks, No Guesswork

Score marks at 2 in and 3 in let installers set the plate directly to the tile course without measuring, keeping every install fast, consistent, and right the first time.

Sized for Multiple Applications

Total length and lower metal plate length are designed to fit a range of tile, slate, and specialty roofing applications rather than a single profile.

A Rail System, Not Scattered Guards

The rail-based design is intended to replace rows of individual snow guards scattered across the roof, keeping the roofline clean while still distributing retention along the eave.

TitanCore Material

Built from TitanCore, ArcticAnchor™'s engineered polymer, the system is designed to stay lightweight and corrosion-resistant, with color that runs through the material itself.

Compatibility

Compatible Tile and Specialty Profiles

ArcticAnchor™ tile-series components are designed to fit a range of compatible tile, synthetic tile, slate, and specialty roofing profiles. Exact fit depends on the tile or panel manufacturer and profile.

A full compatible-profile list is in development. Contact our technical support team to confirm fit for your specific tile or panel before ordering, or submit a panel through our free panel testing program.

Project-specific review may be required. ArcticAnchor™ products are not fall-protection anchors and must not be used as personal tie-off points.
