Tesla Metal Roof Tiles are non-energy producing tiles that create a metal roof covering that is intended for use on complete roof planes.
The Tesla Metal Tiles are comprised of textured painted sheet metal with an EPS foam plastic backer. Models include full size and partial sizes of one-sixth, one-third, one-half, two-thirds, and five-sixth size. The full size tile is 1152.1mm long. All tiles are 439.8mm wide and 43.9mm thick.
Assemblies are intended for use in steep slope roof applications with roof slopes equal to or greater than 3:12, installed over minimum 15/32-in. thick exterior grade plywood or 7/16 in. exterior grade OSB roof decks covered with approved underlayments.
Model numbers are: SRMTT1 (full size), partial tiles SRMTT5/6, SRMTT2/3, SRMTT1/2, SRMTT1/3, SRMTT1/6
