Raw Materials

 

  Alu-Zinc Electroplated Steel Sheets for Stone-Coated Roof Tiles

Alu-Zinc electroplated steel sheets, also known as Galvalume steel, are the foundation material for stone-coated roofing tiles, offering exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and longevity. These sheets are coated with a precise blend of aluminum (55%), zinc (43.4%), and silicon (1.6%), providing superior protection against rust, heat, and extreme weather conditions.

1. Composition & Coating Process

Alu-Zinc steel is manufactured using a continuous hot-dip process, where a steel core is electroplated with a thin but highly durable layer of aluminum-zinc alloy. This alloy enhances the sheet's resistance to oxidation, moisture, and environmental pollutants, making it ideal for roofing applications.

2. Key Advantages in Stone-Coated Roof Tiles

Superior Corrosion Resistance - Lasts 3-6 times longer than galvanized steel due to the aluminum-zinc barrier.
High Durability - Withstands extreme weather, including heavy rain, snow, and salt-laden coastal air.
Lightweight Yet Strong - Provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, reducing structural load.
Heat & UV Reflection - Reflects solar radiation, reducing heat absorption and improving energy efficiency.
Excellent Adhesion for Stone Coating - Ensures a strong bond between the steel surface and stone chips for long-term durability.

3. Physical & Chemical Properties

Property	Specification
Base Material	High-Tensile Cold-Rolled Steel
Coating Composition	55% Aluminum, 43.4% Zinc, 1.6% Silicon
Coating Thickness	AZ50 - AZ200 (50-200 g/m²)
Steel Thickness	0.35 mm - 0.55 mm
Tensile Strength	300 - 550 MPa (G300 - G550)
Surface Treatment	Anti-fingerprint Coating for Additional Protection
Corrosion Resistance	3-6x Better Than Galvanized Steel
Thermal Reflectivity	High, Reducing Heat Absorption

4. Manufacturing Process

1. Cold Rolling - High-tensile steel is processed to achieve the required thickness.
2. Hot-Dip Alu-Zinc Coating - The steel sheet is electroplated with Alu-Zinc alloy in a molten bath.
3. Cooling & Solidification - Ensures uniform coating and adherence.
4. Surface Treatment - Anti-fingerprint coating is applied for enhanced protection and stone chip adhesion.

 

  Stone Chips for Roofing Tiles

Stone chips play a crucial role in the performance and aesthetics of stone-coated roofing tiles, offering both durability and weather resistance. These high-quality natural mineral granules are carefully selected, processed, and coated to enhance the strength and longevity of roofing materials.

1.   Composition

The stone chips used in roofing tiles are primarily derived from natural basalt or granite, known for their high density, hardness, and weather resistance. These minerals are crushed into fine granules and coated with ceramic pigments to achieve various colors and enhanced UV resistance.

2. Key Functions of Stone Chips in Roofing Tiles

Aesthetic Appeal - Available in a variety of colors to match architectural styles.
Weather Protection - Shields the steel base from environmental elements like UV rays, rain, and hail.
Noise Reduction - Dampens rain and impact noise compared to metal roofs.
Anti-Corrosion - Acts as a protective layer, preventing direct exposure of the steel surface to moisture and air.
Thermal Insulation - Enhances energy efficiency by reflecting heat and reducing indoor temperatures.

3. Manufacturing Process

1. Selection & Crushing - High-quality basalt or granite is crushed into uniform-sized granules.
2. Cleaning & Drying - Removes impurities and moisture to ensure proper adhesion.
3. Ceramic Coating - Granules are coated with UV-resistant ceramic pigments and baked at 850-900°C to ensure long-lasting color retention.
4. Surface Treatment - Additional protective layers enhance resistance to fading, algae, and extreme weather conditions.

4. Performance Characteristics

• Size Range: Typically 0.4mm - 1.2mm, optimized for roofing applications.
• Color Stability: Ceramic pigments ensure long-lasting, fade-resistant colors.
• Water Absorption: <1%, making them highly resistant to moisture damage.
• Acid & Alkali Resistance: Suitable for coastal and industrial environments.

Applications

Advantages of Using Stone-Coated Roof Tiles as Roofing Materials

Stone-coated roof tiles combine durability, aesthetics, and weather resistance, making them an excellent choice for both residential and commercial roofing projects. Stone-coated roof tiles provide the perfect balance of strength, beauty, and efficiency, making them one of the best roofing materials available. They ensure long-term protection, enhance property value, and offer superior performance in all weather conditions.

1. Exceptional Durability & Longevity

• Made from galvanized or aluminum-zinc steel, stone-coated roof tiles are highly resistant to corrosion and rust.
• Designed to last 40-70 years, they outperform traditional roofing materials like asphalt shingles.

2. Superior Weather Resistance

• Wind Resistance: Withstand strong winds up to 120-150 mph, making them ideal for storm-prone areas.
• Impact Resistance: Highly resistant to hail and falling debris, reducing the risk of damage.
• Fire Resistance: Non-combustible, offering excellent protection against fire hazards.

3. Lightweight Yet Strong

• Unlike traditional clay or concrete tiles, stone-coated tiles are lightweight, reducing stress on the building structure.
• Suitable for both new constructions and re-roofing projects without requiring additional support.

4. Energy Efficiency & Insulation

• Reflects heat effectively, keeping homes cooler in hot climates and reducing air conditioning costs.
• Helps retain warmth during colder months, improving overall energy efficiency.

5. Low Maintenance Requirements

• Resistant to moss, mold, and mildew, requiring minimal upkeep over time.
• Does not crack, warp, or fade like traditional roofing materials.

6. Aesthetic Appeal & Versatile Designs

• Available in various colors and textures that mimic natural materials like clay, slate, or wood shake.
• Enhances the overall architectural appeal of homes and buildings.

7. Environmentally Friendly

• Made from recyclable materials, making them an eco-friendly roofing option.
• Reduces waste from frequent roof replacements compared to asphalt shingles.

8. Cost-Effective in the Long Run

• Though the initial investment is higher than asphalt shingles, the extended lifespan and reduced maintenance make stone-coated tiles a cost-efficient choice over time.
