Marley Eternit’s new Slater’s Tub makes it quicker and easier to install fibre cement slates – which need separate fixings at the top and bottom – to BS 5534 requirements. The container is designed to sit perfectly on the battens and contains all of the fixings needed to install 1,000 slates. Removing the need to have loose bags open on the roof, the cost-effective Slater’s Tub contains 2,000 copper nails and 1,000 copper disc rivets in two sections ready to use, saving time and improving safety on site.
