SolarDek TileFlash - SDTF-RO

Description

The SolarDek TileFlash is an ingenious dual-purpose tile and cable flashing system designed specifically for flat tile roofs. Sized to match a normal roof tile, it replaces a single tile in the roof course while providing both waterproof cable entry and cushioned protection for the solar mounting hook beneath it.

Up to four cables can pass through the flashing simultaneously, giving a clean, weatherproof route for DC cabling into the loft space. Its low-profile polymer design creates less tile lift when installed alongside a solar hook than a standard tile would, reducing the risk of tile cracking and helping keep the roofline neat.

Good to Know

This product is a dual-purpose flashing: it seals cable entry points and simultaneously cushions the roof hook used to mount solar panel rails, reducing pressure on the tile beneath. It is suitable for Rosemary and flat tile on-roof solar mounting installations.

Dual-Purpose Design

Combines tile flashing and cable management in a single component, replacing a standard tile while sealing cable penetrations.

Four Cable Entry Ports

Provides a waterproof, frictionless passage for up to four DC cables through the roof tile into the loft space.

Cushions the Solar Hook

The polymer compound protects tiles from cracking by absorbing pressure exerted on the roof hook during and after installation.

Sized Like a Standard Tile

At 250 x 165mm, it is sized to match a normal roof tile, making it straightforward to fit into an existing tile course.

Low-Profile Installation

Creates less tile lift than a standard tile when paired with a solar hook, helping maintain a neat, low-profile roofline.

Built for Multiple Tile Types

A multi-purpose flashing suited to Rosemary and flat tile on-roof solar mounting installations.

What does the SolarDek TileFlash actually do?

It serves two purposes at once: it provides a waterproof cable entry point for up to four solar PV cables, and it acts as a cushion for the solar mounting hook installed beneath it, reducing pressure on the tile and roof structure.

Will it fit in place of my existing roof tile?

Yes. The SolarDek TileFlash is sized to match a normal flat roof tile at 250 x 165mm, allowing it to be installed in place of a removed tile within the existing tile course.

How many cables can pass through the TileFlash?

It provides four cable entry ports, allowing up to four DC cables to pass through the tile into the loft space in a single, weatherproof penetration.

What roof types is it compatible with?

It is designed for flat tile roofs, including Rosemary tile profiles, and is intended for on-roof solar mounting installations.

Does the TileFlash reduce the risk of tile cracking?

Yes. Its polymer construction cushions the roof hook during and after installation, helping protect the tile beneath from cracking under the pressure of the mounting hardware.
