6.5 × 132 mm galvanized screw for Eurofala and Ekofala, timber

Corrugated fibre-cement roofing requires fasteners selected for its profile and the roof structure. Screws for Eurofala and Ekofala sheets help create the fixing specified by the system and seal the penetration through the material. At SteelProfil, we select suitable variants for timber or steel supports, taking account of the sheet model, corrugation height and connection requirements.

In this application, screw length must allow for the corrugation geometry and the required embedment in the structure. Tip and thread type are equally important, because fixing to timber differs from fixing to a steel purlin. System screws may include features that help form the correct hole, as specified by the manufacturer. We help match the variant to the particular sheet so that every part of the connection serves the same purpose.

The washer distributes compression over a suitable area, and the seal protects the penetration through the roof covering. Commonly used EPDM is a synthetic rubber resistant to UV radiation, ozone and weathering. Correct seating allows its flexibility to work within the connection. Protection of the screw itself is selected for the service conditions, comparing suitable zinc coatings, other protective finishes or the material specified by the system.

A fastener intended for fibre-cement sheets makes it easier to repeat the same fixing across the roof. This helps on both new outbuildings and replacement roofs, where efficient material preparation matters. Selection can also include the colour of visible components, where the chosen variant provides this option. The fixings can then complement the sheets and ridge accessories. When ordering a larger quantity of sheets, it is useful to allocate the fasteners to the different roof areas at the same time.

• Matching length to the sheet profile provides the required embedment in the structure.
• The washer and seal help form the detail where the screw passes through the corrugated covering.
• Compatible system components make consistent installation across the roof easier.

At SteelProfil, we check availability of fasteners suited to the ordered covering. Quantities depend on the sheet layout and the requirements of the particular roof, so we use the installer’s schedule or the project documentation. Our wider construction range includes first- and second-grade sheets and panels, with selected batches available from stock. Fibre-cement screws are selected separately for the required connection properties and compatibility with the specific roofing system.

Promotions and competitive prices help bring the required materials together in one order. Include the sheet name, profile and supporting structure in your enquiry. We can help identify the appropriate fixing assembly and plan the number of pieces. The offer will then cover both the main roof area and the details needed to connect the sheets correctly, giving the installer accessories suited to the intended method.
