Stone Tile

Length: Stone-coated roof tiles usually range from 1,300 mm to 1,400 mm (approximately 51 to 55 inches). The longer length results in fewer overlaps, reducing installation time and cost.
Width: The typical width of these tiles is around 420 mm (about 16.5 inches). This width allows for sufficient coverage while keeping the tiles lightweight.

Coverage Per Tile: Each tile typically covers between 0.45 and 0.5 square meters (or about 4.8 to 5.4 square feet). The exact coverage can vary based on the tile’s profile and the manufacturer’s design.
Overlap: The effective coverage accounts for the necessary overlaps between tiles to ensure a watertight seal, which is critical for preventing leaks.

Steel Core: The core material, typically galvanized steel, ranges from 0.4 mm to 0.5 mm in thickness. This provides the necessary strength while keeping the tiles lightweight.
Coating Layers: The thickness of the tile may also include additional layers, such as a stone coating, adhesive layers, and a protective top coat. These layers add to the overall thickness but are usually thin enough to maintain a lightweight profile.

Per Tile: A single tile usually weighs from 2.5 kg to 3.0 kg (about 5.5 to 6.6 pounds). This lightweight design allows for easier handling and installation, reducing labor costs.
Per Square Meter: The overall weight per square meter is typically around 6 to 7 kg (approximately 13 to 15.4 pounds). This is significantly lighter than traditional roofing materials like clay tiles or slate, helping reduce the load on the roof structure.
