• Product Details

    SAMAC Ridge Fixings are designed to provide a secure, mechanical method of fixing ridge and hip tiles in modern roofing applications. Typically consisting of screws, washers, and metal clamps, these fixings ensure ridge tiles are firmly secured to the ridge batten, delivering a weatherproof and maintenance-free installation. They are widely used in both traditional and dry ridge systems, where mechanical fixing is now a requirement under UK roofing standards.

    Manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials such as galvanised or stainless steel, SAMAC ridge fixings are built to withstand long-term exposure to the elements. The system works by driving a countersunk screw through the ridge tile and clamp into the batten below, applying consistent pressure to hold tiles in place and prevent movement or uplift. Available in a range of configurations—including complete fixing sets, screws, and angled or flat clamps—they provide flexibility for different roof types and installation methods.
