A new shock absorbing roof tile designed to simplify the installation and improve the durability of solar PV arrays was unveiled for the first time at this year's Solar Power UK exhibition at The NEC in Birmingham.
Called HookStop, the patented new tile is purpose-designed to replace fragile plain or rosemary tiles that sit directly under the roof hooks used to support the mounting rails of a roof-mounted solar PV installation.
HookStop has been developed for installers by installers, is manufactured in UV-stable recycled rubber for long-lasting outdoor use and has been designed to fit all plain and rosemary tiles. HookStop tiles are available on next-day delivery from PV Trade specialist, Hexstone's Stainless Threaded Fasteners (STF) and JCP Owlett approved stockists.
