Product Information

Full details

The TIMCO Slate Hooks are designed for professional roofers and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, efficient method for attaching slate tiles to timber battens. These hooks serve as a robust alternative to traditional copper clout nails, providing a stable, point-driven support system that simplifies slate repairs and replacements. While they are highly durable, users should ensure their specific slate thickness is compatible with the hook design before starting large-scale installations.

FAQs

Can I use these hooks on metal battens?

No, these hooks are specifically designed for timber battens.

How many hooks are in a pack?

Each pack contains 500 individual slate hooks.

Are these hooks rust-resistant?

The hooks feature a durable colour-coated finish designed to withstand standard environmental exposure.

What is the diameter of the hook?

Each hook has a 2.7mm diameter.

Are these suitable for new builds?

While intended for repairs and replacements, they can be used for new roof installations if your design specifies hook-fixing methods.

Troubleshooting

Hook bending during insertion

Ensure the batten is not made of exceptionally hard wood; pre-drill a small starter hole if necessary.

Slate appears loose after installation

Check that the hook is fully seated against the timber batten and the slate is resting properly on the arm.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • More efficient than traditional copper clout nails
  • Discreet finish matches grey slate tiles perfectly
  • Provides enhanced structural stability through multi-point support
  • Easy to install in timber batten systems

Cons

  • Not suitable for non-timber batten substrates
  • Requires precise spacing for optimal slate alignment
  • Limited to specific tile thicknesses for a secure fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these hooks, ensure your timber battens are clear of debris. Position the hook so the point sits flush against the batten and the arm supports the bottom edge of the slate. These hooks are 2.7mm in diameter; verify your batten material is not excessively hardened to avoid bending the hook point. For maintenance, keep the remaining pack in a dry storage area to prevent moisture from compromising the colour coating. Ensure compatibility by checking that your slate type and thickness align with standard residential slate sizes, as oversized or excessively heavy slate slabs may require specialized anchoring methods beyond standard hook systems.
