Metal tiles with such a sonorous name belong to the classics section. It closely resembles the shape ceramic tiles. Each sheet of metal tile is made of durable steel, which is protected by a special polymer layer. Monterrey is often used for the roofing of buildings belonging to historical heritage. However, this type of flooring is also ideal for residential buildings. In this article we will tell you why Monterrey metal tiles are in great demand. What makes this material so in demand? The whole secret lies in its special technical characteristics.
Advantages
- The Monterrey profile is ideally combined with different types of wall decoration. It is applicable for covering the roofs of both stone and wooden houses.
- Fits on roofs of any shape. The only limitation is the slope angle of 14°.
- Easy to install.
- The maximum service life is 50 years.
- There is no need to construct a reinforced rafter system. The average weight of Monterrey tiles is 5 kg/m2.
- If necessary, roof repairs can be easily and quickly carried out.
- Environmentally friendly product.
- Does not support combustion and is resistant to fire.
- Excellent data on external indicators. Available wide range textures and colors. The coating is resistant to sunlight and does not fade.
- Resistant to temperature changes and exposure to air.
Monterrey metal tile sheet consists of several layers. There is a special polymer coating on both sides of the sheet. In this case, each layer of the sheet is responsible for one or another function:
- The inner layer is a thin sheet of galvanized steel. It is he who takes on the main load from the outside.
- There is an aluminum-zinc or galvanized layer on both sides of the profile. This prevents metal corrosion.
- Similarly, on both sides there is a layer of primer, which has high adhesion. Thanks to it, the paint adheres to the metal surface much better.
- Available on the front side only polymer layer. The durability of metal tiles will depend on its quality.
- A varnish layer is applied on the inside, which provides additional protection.
According to GOST, the thickness of the Monterrey metal tile profile can fluctuate around 0.4–0.6 mm. The steel used for its production is cold rolled coil. The formation of each sheet is carried out on profile bending equipment. Fluctuations in thickness over the entire sheet area are not allowed. Perfect accuracy must be maintained. According to GOST, thickness deviations of up to 0.05 mm are allowed. If we talk about the European standard, then the quality requirements here are much stricter. According to the ISO standard, deviation is permissible, but not more than 0.01 mm. The result is a product with ideal rigidity and strength.
Based on this, high demands are placed on enterprises that manufacture Monterrey metal tiles. If the equipment is not updated, then sooner or later the machines begin to roll sheets with different thicknesses by leaf area. As a result, thick metal tiles will place a strong load on the rafters. Average weight Monterrey metal tiles, manufactured according to GOST, is 4.5–5 kg per 1 m 2.
Polymer coating
The polymer coating is applied to the sheet immediately before shaping. The future coating, which has a polymer layer, has a large number advantages:
- Provides excellent protection against ultraviolet rays and from the occurrence of corrosion.
- Less mechanical damage to the surface is observed.
- Color stability.
- Not scary winter frost and summer heat.
It should be noted that the polymer coating is made on the basis of different polymers. Let's look at the five most popular of them:
- Polyester. The coating consists of durable polyester paint, 25 microns thick. Creates ideal protection against corrosion and possible mechanical damage.
- Matte polyester. The coating thickness is 35 microns. It has an elegant appearance and good resistance to temperature changes. Can be installed in different climates.
- Plastisol. The coating is made of PVC, 200 microns thick. Protects against chemical and mechanical damage, corrosion and ultraviolet rays.
- Pural. The thickness of the coating is 50 microns and consists of polyurethane. Calmly tolerates sudden changes in temperature. Corrosion protection is 100%.
- PVDF. The mixture of polyvinyl fluoride and acrylic has a thickness of 27 microns. From sun rays The color of the coating does not fade and does not break under load.
So, to summarize, it depends on the quality polymer coating depends on the following technical specifications metal tiles Monterrey:
- color fastness,
- resistance to mechanical damage,
- chemical resistance,
- operational service life,
- anti-corrosion,
- UV resistance,
- endurance to temperature changes.
Dimensional geometry and profile types
The key role is played by the dimensions of the sheets and the type of profile. For example, due to correctly selected sheet sizes, you can significantly reduce the number of cut pieces. Therefore, when choosing, the following characteristics are taken into account:
- length,
- width,
- wave step,
- profile height.
Depending on the type of Monterrey profile, each of these indicators may differ. There are three profile types:
- MP Monterrey. Is the most common and popular view roofs. It is economical, durable and strong.
- MP Supermoterrey. It is a prototype of the first type. Features a higher profile height. The appearance is solid and worthy of any structure. In appearance it is very close to natural tiles.
- MP Maxi. Differs in increased height and width of waves. Thanks to this, its shape looks especially expressive.
For comparison, let’s take the first two types of Monterrey metal tiles.
MP Monterrey
- Length 0.5–9 m.
- Profile height 39 mm.
- Wave pitch 3.5 cm.
MP Supermoterrey
- Nominal sheet width 1180 mm.
- Useful sheet width 1100 mm.
- Length 0.5–9 m.
- Profile height 46 mm.
- Wave pitch 3.5 cm.
As you can see, the technical characteristics in terms of geometry and profile type are almost identical.
To produce Monterrey metal tiles, you must have equipment that is fully automated. As mentioned at the beginning of this article, the main raw material is steel. First, it undergoes passivation. This process involves applying a protective zinc layer that will prevent oxidation. After this, the surface is primed. It is important for good adhesion of the future polymer layer to the steel. When all the protective layers have been applied, the sheets are given the desired shape by profiling. Thanks to the use of high-tech lines, it is possible to achieve high precision and stability of rolled products and, as a consequence, the output of high-quality products.
All stages of work must meet technical requirements. Otherwise, the products will not meet Monterrey metal tile standards.
Pay attention! It is noteworthy that the requirements for the ISO certificate are much stricter than GOST.
Transportation and selection rules
Having understood all the technical characteristics of this type of metal tile, it is important to pay attention to the method of its transportation and selection. Regarding the first, it is important to comply with the following requirements:
- It is important to use gangways for unloading/loading. This will ensure smooth movement of the profile packs.
- For cargo transportation, you must use only vehicles whose trunk matches the length of the sheets.
- Metal tiles can only be carried in a vertical position to prevent deflection.
- Storage is only possible under a canopy in a dry place. For storage it is necessary to build a podium or lay down a beam 200 mm high.
As for the choice, it is important to take into account all the technical characteristics as a whole, which we discussed with you in this article. This is the only way to truly buy quality product, which will comply with all existing standards.

Installation
Before laying sheets of material you need to calculate them exact quantity, this involves measuring the exact dimensions of the roof. They can be done using a long tape measure. At complex design the roof needs to be divided into smaller sections, and then the data added up.
If the roof is a regular gable roof, then the length of the cornice is taken into account, which should be divided by the working width of the profile, the resulting number of sheets is rounded up, taking into account shear losses.
On video editing metal tiles Monterrey instructions:
When installing metal tiles, you should choose shoes with soft soles so that they do not slip on the roof slope. If it is gable, then installation begins at the end of the building.
Work progress:
- The first sheet is laid at a distance of 50 mm from the cornice. Such a protrusion is needed to perform eaves overhang, which protects the material from precipitation.
- The sheet is installed, leveled and secured with one screw on top so that it can still be turned.
- Place the next one on top of the first sheet with an overlap of 150 mm. Afterwards it is attached to the previous profile, but not to the sheathing itself. The same installation of the next profile is repeated.
- Three sheets fastened to each other are aligned with the cornice and fixed to the sheathing in the places of the concave wave, while the screws are screwed in through one wave.
- When all the sheets have been installed, proceed to installing the outer apron, which should be painted in suitable color roofing material.
A roof made of Monterrey metal tiles will delight home owners with its beautiful view, many friends will not be able to distinguish it from tiles. It will provide the home with protection for for many years, if you buy the material from trusted suppliers and install it correctly.
Monterrey metal tiles, the characteristics of which will be discussed below, are one of the most common ones. The most important parameters are the exact dimensions of the sheet, the multi-layer structure, as well as the presence of a special protective coating that extends the service life.
Peculiarities
This metal tile has become almost a classic today. It follows the shape as much as possible. Inside there is galvanized durable steel, which is strengthened with polymer. The material is used in restoring the roofs of historical buildings, repairing damaged areas, as well as in installing roofs on modern houses.
The sheet of Monterrey metal tiles, the characteristics of which will be useful to read before purchasing the product, consists of many layers. To protect the steel sheet, it is coated on both sides. special composition. Each layer has a specific function. On top there is a mounting protective film that covers the polymer layer. Next comes the primer layer, and after that comes the anti-corrosion coating, followed by a layer of zinc and steel sheet. From below it is covered with another primer layer and protective varnish, and also anti-corrosion coating and a layer of zinc.
Additional qualities
The material can withstand significant loads due to the presence of an inner layer. Each side of the sheet is coated with aluminum and galvanized, which reduces the likelihood of corrosion. As for the primer, it has high adhesive characteristics, which is why the paint adheres more firmly to the metal. On the front side there is a polymer that not only protects the tiles, but also makes them more durable and resistant to unfavorable conditions. There is a varnish layer on the inside that guarantees additional protection.
Specifications
The characteristics of Monterrey metal tiles must be considered before purchasing this material. Among others, we should highlight the thickness metal sheet, which is determined state standards. This value for metal tiles ranges from 0.4 to 0.6 mm.
In the production process, cold-rolled steel is used and the sheets are formed using a roll forming machine. Fluctuations in thickness are not allowed. A protective polymer layer is applied before the tiles take on their wave-like shape. The polymer layer creates a barrier to corrosion and sunlight, while the material does not lose its color for a long time. The surface is less damaged, and in summer and cold periods the canvas is not subject to negative influences.
It is made on the basis of one of the most common polymers, among them polyester, which is applied with a thickness of 25 microns. It is based on polyester paint, which protects against mechanical damage and corrosion. As for matte polyester, it is applied at a thickness of 35 microns. The appearance is exquisite, the material becomes particularly resistant to weather fluctuations.
What else is important to pay attention to?
This Monterrey metal tile, the characteristics of which are presented in the article, is suitable for any climate. Plastisol is a PVC coating that is applied up to 200 microns thick. As a result, it is possible to obtain a surface that is resistant to ultraviolet radiation, chemical and mechanical damage, as well as corrosion. The polyurethane coating is pural, it is applied in a layer of up to 50 microns and tolerates temperature fluctuations. The resulting colors are almost 100% corrosion resistant.
Additional technical specifications
