Concrete Roof Tiles: Style Them Up

Concrete Roof Tiles: Style Them Up. In the market there are several different types of concrete roofing tile styles available. Different roofing tiles are made to give consumers more artistic options. Many of the styles copy clay, slate and even wood in its designs. You can even get custom designed roofing tiles to meet your needs.

There are four different types of concrete roofing tile styles:

  • Spanish style roof tiles
  • Curved roof tiles
  • Flat inter-locking roof tiles
  • Flat-shingle style roof tiles
  • The least complex of the four designs is the curved roof tiles. The design is composed of concave and convex columns. The most traditional of the designs is the Spanish-style roof tiles. This style looks like a “S” profile. The flat roof tiles are in a broken bond pattern. This particular design is good for extreme weather conditions such as snow storms. The last design is flat shingle style. This design is distinguished by the overlapping tiles and is laid from the bottom to the top.

    Every roofing tile style is unique. Every style is unique to a certain area of the world. The weather is a huge factor when deciding what style to use on your roof.

    Die casting is a process that involves creating metal parts. This is achieved by forcing molten metal under high pressure into a mold or die cavity. It greatly reduces the need for further post-production processing by producing high quality surfaces, among other things. Most of the tools and products that people use are produced through this process.

    There are different materials used for die casting. One of the most commonly-used materials for this process is aluminum. Aluminum die casting is often used for producing automobile parts and gears and surgical equipment. It is also the preferred material for networking and telecom infrastructures and equipment.

    Among other things, aluminum die casting alloys are lightweight. They have a minimum section thickness of 0.89 mm (0.035 in) and a minimum draft of 1:100. In spite of their being a lighter material, they nonetheless belong to the stronger and harder types. They have an ultimate tenile strength that ranges from 40.5 to 48/ksi and the hardness is between 80-120 HB. The melting range is approximately from 960-1200 degrees Fahrenheit, making them among the most durable when subjected to extremely high temperatures.

    Aluminum die casting alloys are rustproof, non-staining, and have a high conductivity percentage at 55.6-78.6/Btu/fthr.F (thermal) and 23-31% (electrical) per IACS standard. They are most ideal for complex shapes and thin walls and for most electronic applications. Since most aluminum-based alloys are made from 95% recycled materials, their use contributes a lot to the promotion of green technology.

    Summing it up, aluminum-based alloys offer an efficient, cost-effective, and nature-friendly material for developing and improving products and tools that help make people’s lives easier and more productive.

    Why People Use Aluminum Die Castings

    Why People Use Aluminum Die Castings. Die casting is a powerful manufacturing process which involves the production of geometrically complex parts made from reusable molds, which is called die. The process of die casting involves the use of metal, a hot furnace, casting machinery and several pieces of die. The metal used, typically a non-ferrous type of alloys such as zinc or aluminum, is melted in the furnace and then injected to the casting machine. There are actually types of machines used in this process, there is the hot chamber die casting machine, used in zinc, and low melting temperature metals and there is the cold chamber machine which is used in aluminum and with high melting temperature type of metals. Both machines have the ability to rapidly cool and solidify the final part of the metal, which is called the casting.

    People utilize aluminum in die casting because of its properties. Aluminum is lightweight and has powerful dimensional stability and changeability. This means that the metal can be used in order to create complex shapes and thin sheets of walls. Aluminum also has a good corrosion value and strong mechanical properties. Along the lines of its strength, aluminum also has high electrical and thermal conductivity, making it effective in various electronic projects. This metal can also be used and mixed with other types of metal in order to create stronger types of alloy for other types of projects. Even though aluminum is exposed to electricity and high temperatures, it still retains strength and that is why people utilize aluminum in die casting.
