This is the preferred system where optimum fastening • High Wind Resistant
is required and strict code regulations are in effect. Tie • Protects Waterproofing by Minimizing Penetrations
rods, connectors or tie wires connect each tile into the
Tyle Tye® Strap system that is fastened by ring shank
nails, screws or spikes. The 1” continuous metallic strip
installs under the rows of tile eliminating any pressure
or weight on the strip while maintaining the integrity
of the roof system.
T WISTED WIRE TYLE-TYE SYSTEM®
This continuous system of twisted wire features a spe-
cial anchor that attaches through the underlayment to
wood, concrete, or metal roof decks. Roof tiles are tied
to the loops of the twisted wire Tyle Tye®. The water-
proof membrane is punctured only at anchoring points,
and the appropriate roofing mastic is used to seal these
penetrations.
RINESS® TILE TIE SYSTEM
This single-line tile tie system features a loop and hook
fastener that interlocks the tiles allowing for greater
labor and cost savings. It can be used with most clay
mission or clay shingle tiles.
T YLE-TYE TILE NAIL®
This system is a unique fastener used in the cover por-
tion of clay 2-piece mission tile, or clay “S” tile or most
concrete roof tiles. Tile nail outperforms any direct
deck nailed roof tile fastener by securing the tile at two
points with one fastener; prevents tile fractures or
breaks and uses the uplift forces to drive the nail por-
tion of the fastener deeper into the deck.
