Eurofala / Ekofala fixing: 6.5 × 132 mm, galvanized, timber

The corrugated shape of fibre cement requires fixings matched to its geometry and movement. Screws for Eurofala and Ekofala sheets help make this connection to a suitable roof structure. At SteelProfil, we select accessories for the specific covering so the customer can prepare a complete material package. The correct fastener supports both installation and subsequent service on a roof exposed to changing weather.

Screw length, supporting material and washer arrangement should match the selected sheet and its manufacturer’s instructions. Timber and steel supports may require different solutions. A correctly matched assembly fixes the covering at the specified point on the profile and allows the connection to behave as intended. We help organise these details when ordering, because the sheet name alone does not replace checking its variant and the structure beneath it. Corrugation height and the positions of laps between adjacent sheets should also be considered.

An EPDM washer helps seal the screw penetration through the covering. This elastomer withstands UV radiation, ozone and weathering well, which matters on a roof. In galvanized versions, zinc protects the steel component from corrosion; other fasteners may use different materials or protective coatings. Matching the entire assembly to the service conditions makes use of the fixing’s benefits without reducing selection to screw length or visible head colour alone.

Fibre cement needs an installation method that provides the recommended clearance and correct compression. Depending on the system, holes are prepared beforehand or made using the fasteners specified by the manufacturer. Care at this stage allows the sheet to be fitted without unnecessary surface stress. The owner receives a roof installed to a consistent method, and the crew has a clear material specification. Well-planned accessories also make it easier to complete successive parts of the roof.

SteelProfil offers promotions and attractive prices for roof construction and replacement materials. Selected accessories are available from stock, helping installation start on schedule. Other parts of our range include first- and second-grade sheet metal, panels and insulation. We select the fasteners for the particular covering, so economical purchasing of the other materials goes hand in hand with a properly planned fixing system.

Before ordering, establish the sheet model, support type and quantities required by the roof layout. This allows appropriate screws to be compared and the necessary number of packs assembled. We help match the offer to those details, including the other finishing components. A small accessory then becomes part of a considered project, enabling the completed roof to serve an outbuilding, warehouse or other structure through the seasons ahead.
