Metrotile Bond .900 – Traditional Pantile Appearance Built for High-Security Roofing

The Metrotile Bond .900 profile combines the distinctive look of traditional pantiles with the strength and durability required for secure, anti-vandal roofing applications. Engineered from heavy-duty steel, this roofing system is designed for buildings where impact resistance, structural integrity, and long-term performance are critical.

While maintaining the classic curved pantile aesthetic commonly associated with traditional clay roofing, Metrotile Bond .900 delivers the strength, resilience, and reliability demanded by public sector, commercial, and high-risk environments.

Traditional Pantile Aesthetics with Modern Structural Performance

The Metrotile Bond .900 profile faithfully replicates the rolling curves and shadow lines of traditional clay pantiles, allowing projects to retain a familiar architectural style while benefiting from the superior strength of steel construction.

Unlike traditional clay or concrete pantiles, which are prone to cracking, displacement, or deliberate damage, Bond .900 provides a secure, interlocking roofing system engineered for demanding environments.

Key advantages include:

• Significantly stronger than clay or concrete pantiles

• Reduced risk of tile breakage or displacement

• Lower overall roof weight, reducing structural load

• Efficient and secure installation

This makes Bond .900 particularly suitable for developments where traditional appearance is required but durability and security are essential.

Engineered for Anti-Vandal and Secure Building Applications

Manufactured from 0.9mm Drawing Grade 3 steel, each tile is protected with a ZAM (Zinc-Aluminium-Magnesium) coating, delivering exceptional corrosion resistance and long-term structural stability.

The heavier gauge steel and mechanically fixed interlocking design provide:

• High resistance to vandalism and impact damage

• Secure fixing to reduce the risk of tile removal or tampering

• Excellent wind uplift resistance

• Long-term durability with minimal maintenance

These characteristics make Metrotile Bond .900 a reliable solution for buildings where roof security and durability are key design considerations.

Typical applications include:

• Schools and academies

• Public sector and municipal buildings

• Transport infrastructure and public facilities

• Secure housing developments

• Industrial and commercial buildings

• Social housing projects requiring anti-vandal roofing solutions

Designed for Demanding Environments

Metrotile Bond .900 is specifically engineered to perform in high-traffic or high-risk environments where traditional pantile roofing materials may suffer from damage, displacement, or frequent maintenance issues.

Compared with conventional clay or concrete pantiles, Bond .900 offers:

• Greater impact resistance

• Reduced ongoing maintenance

• Long service life in exposed or challenging environments

• Reliable protection against severe weather conditions

Its combination of traditional pantile styling and steel strength provides a practical roofing solution for projects requiring both architectural character and robust performance.

A Secure Alternative to Traditional Pantiles

Metrotile Bond .900 delivers the classic pantile roof appearance with the strength and reliability of engineered steel, making it an ideal specification for buildings where durability, security, and longevity are paramount.

For architects, contractors, and specifiers working on public, commercial, or secure facilities, Metrotile Bond .900 provides a robust, anti-vandal roofing solution without sacrificing traditional design aesthetics.

Also available in a .410mm gauge, which is suitable for the majority of standard rooftop applications: Metrotile Bond .410

How many Metrotile Bond Tiles do I need?

1. Measure your roof in metres (length × width).
2. Work out the roof area by multiplying the length by the width.
3. Multiply the total area by 2.15 (the number of tiles needed per square metre).
4. Round up to the nearest whole tile.

Example:
If your roof measures 5 metres × 3 metres:

• 5 × 3 = 15 m²
• 15 × 2.15 = 32.25
• Round up to 33 Metrotile Bond Tiles

Important: This calculation is a guide only and is based on the manufacturer’s stated coverage. It does not allow for cuts or wastage. In the roofing industry, it’s standard practice to allow an extra 5%–10%, depending on roof complexity and installer experience. The final quantity required is the responsibility of the customer or installer.
