This incredibly robust system incorporates Zincalume Battens spaced at 307mm. Locked in place between the battens are Nulok Link Channels, each possessing a stainless steel clip used for securing the leading edge of each slate. This Link Channel eliminates the need for side double-lapping of slates because water passing through the slate is routed by the Link Channel onto the surface of the slate below.<br \/>\nTests Performed on Nulok Ceramic Slate Tiles<\/p>\n<h3>Tests performed by CREAM Building Technology Laboratory (UK)<\/h3>\n<p>BS EN 538 1994 &#8211; Flexural Strength Test<br \/>\nBS EN 539 1994 &#8211; Physical Characteristic Impermeability Test<br \/>\nBS EN 539\/2 1998 &#8211; Frost Resistance Test<br \/>\nBS EN 1024 1997 Geometric Test<br \/>\nBS EN 1304 1998 Product Definition and Specification Test<\/p>\n<h3>Test performed by Turin Polytechnic (Italy) Dept of Geological Resources and Territory<\/h3>\n<p>Water Absorption<br \/>\nResistance to indirect traction by means of bending<br \/>\nResistance to indirect traction by means of bending after freezing<br \/>\nResistance to alterations caused by weather<\/p>\n<h3>External Fire Exposure<\/h3>\n<p>BS 476: Part 3 1958<\/p>\n<h3>Simulated Static and Cyclic Wind Uplift Test<\/h3>\n<p>Passed Wind Classification upto and including C2 (cyclonic wind test).<\/p>\n<h3>Test performed on Nulok Fixing System<\/h3>\n<p>AS 2050 1989 Weather Effectiveness of Roofing System Structural<\/p>\n<p>Upwards to ultimate<br \/>\nUpwards to serviceability<br \/>\nDownwards to ultimate<br \/>\nDownwards to serviceability<\/p>\n<p>Florida Building Code Test Protocol TAS100-95 \u2013 test procedure for wind and wind driven rain resistance of discontinuous roof systems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<div  class='avia-table av-av_table-7a9a0e158fcc6df500be32f1d2023605 main_color avia-pricing-table-container avia_pricing_default  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last  avia-table-2'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Table\" ><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class=''><div class='first-table-item'>Based on overlap of 100mm<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>Slates per m2<\/li><li class=''>No. of Link Channels per m2<\/li><li class=''>Slate\/Tile Clips<\/li><li class=''>Battern Centres<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class=''><div class='first-table-item'>400 x 400mm Slate<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>8.33<\/li><li class=''>8.5<\/li><li class=''>8.5<\/li><li class=''>307 \u00b1 7mm<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class=''><div class='first-table-item'>400 x 300mm Slate<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>11.1<\/li><li class=''>11.5<\/li><li class=''>11.5<\/li><li class=''>307 \u00b1 7mm<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"pricing-table-wrap\"><ul class='pricing-table '><li class=''><div class='first-table-item'>400 x 250mm Slate<\/div><span class='pricing-extra'><\/span><\/li><li class=''>13.3<\/li><li class=''>13.5<\/li><li class=''>13.5<\/li><li class=''>307 \u00b1 7mm<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-856","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/856","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=856"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/856\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":867,"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/856\/revisions\/867"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nulokroofing.com\/au2025\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
