Grafter 100 Breather Membrane Roofing Felt from Easy-Trim

(100gsm, choice of roll width and length)

Reliable lightweight vapour permeable membrane!

Lightweight hybrid breathable roof underlay provides excellent performance, whilst being flexible and only 100gsm. BBA certified and suitable for both fully supported and unsupported installations in tiled or slate pitch roofs.

The Grafter 100 is a 3-layer micro porous breather membrane, which features a microporous film that is thermally bonded between two spun-bonded polypropylene layers. Allows the roof to breathe, so eliminates condensation, whilst providing secondary protection against rainwater ingress. Easy-Trim breather membranes improve energy efficiency and minimise the wind uplift that can loosen slates and tiles.

Features & Benefits

  • Protects roof slate and tile - reduces wind uplift
  • Reduces condensation in roof - highly vapour permeable
  • Driven rain and snow protection - second line of defence
  • Highly versatile - use on warm, cold and hybrid roofs
  • Flexible yet strong - good tensile tear strength
  • UV stable for 3 months - protection during construction
  • Quality you can trust - independently tested
  • Superior water resistance - protective polypropylene top layer
  • Printed with brand and cutting grid - easier to identify and fit
  • Choice of roll size - 1m or 1.5m widths and 20m or 50m length

National Wind Zone Suitability

New builds must comply with British Standard for Tiling and Roofing (BS5534) Annex A, with breather membranes tested against wind uplift, and their suitability for use across the 5 national wind zones.

Fitting and Usage

Fitting of Easy-Trim breather membrane should begin at the lowest level of the roof, at the eaves, with the printed side facing out. Starting from the left, roll the membrane horizontally across the rafters to the right, and be sure to allow 100mm lap over the felt-support trays. The use of double-sided overlap tape to secure the lower edge to the felt-support tray is highly recommended.

Horizontal laps in breather membrane should be taped with the double-sided overlap tape, or battened over. Whenever possible, horizontal laps should coincide with the closest tiling or slating batten. Vertical laps should be positioned over a rafter and have a minimum of 100mm lap.

Easy-Trim breather membranes are suitable for installations on all major pitch roofing and timber frame applications, and must be installed in accordance with our fixing instructions, complying with the recommendations of BS5534: 2014 + A1: 2015; BS5250: 2011 and BS8000-0: 2014 and any other applicable standard. The products are designed to be installed by competent and experienced installers of slates and tiles.

Envirotile Envirolay Premier Underlay
Envirolay HR Underlay from Envirolite (1.3m wide x 25m long) The premier roofers underlay! Strong, high performance fire resistant roof underlay, for use on all cold or warm roof types, in all 5 UK wind pressure zones. Envirolay Premier has been fully tested and exceeds the requirements of BS 5534 so you can rest assured you are using an underlay that is fit for purpose. Features of Envirolay & Envirotile Fire resistant material Can be used in all UK zonal areas 1-5 Suitable for all cold or warm roof structures Use with Envirotile on cold roof for BS476-3 compliance Fully tested to BS5534 Annex A Fully Exova Tested with Envirotile to DD CEN/TS 1187 test4 - Brooft4 Please note that on a cold roof type with the Envirotile roof system, to conform to Fire Standard BS 476-3, only Envirolay is approved for full use. On warm roof applications, other underlay can be used with Envirotile. Part of the Envirotile Synthetic Slate system Envirotile tiles interlock with adjacent and under tiles to form a more secure integrated roof covering, and uses a reduced lap that can require just 12 tiles per square metre; so reduces weight, material cost and work. Reduced weight means cheaper transportation, reduced CO² transport emissions and less structural roof requirement. Being easy to work with and approximately 50% the weight of other synthetic tiles, makes Envirotile the perfect choice for creating an authentic looking conservatory roof conversion. Designed and manufactured in the UK, Envirotile synthetic slate is easier to work with than traditional slate and is a complete dry fix system that requires no cement. Part of a complete solution that includes ridge, verge and eaves products. Did you know? The Envirotile is also available as a Half Tile and Double Tile. Half Tiles can be used to initiate a weatherproof broken bond, finishing the verge, and for detailing around abutments or flashings. Double Tile can be used as a discreet filler tile for long sections, and are recommended on the ends of each course; this is especially important on hipped faces to ensure that first and last tiles have adequate fixing points.

Fitting Envirolay and the Envirotile 8Fix Synthetic Plastic Roofing Envirolay should be fitted with at least 100mm lap over felt support tray, and at least 150mm lap over each course. Envirolay tape (GSPDST) can be used to seal overlap for added protection against uplift during heavy winds. Starting on the right, roll out and fix to centre of rafters with clout nails. Ensure 10-15mm sag between rafters to allow any moisture build up to run down. Envirolay should be finished 25mm short of the ridge apex, and 150mm up wall face of any abutment. Envirotiles which are extremely simple to fix, with slide locks for quick alignment and security, should be laid using the 3-step layout procedure. Envirotiles can be cut equally well with hand saw or power saw, without releasing harmful dust during cutting. Half tiles, double tiles and unique eaves bar reduces material cost and work, with no need for an eaves course. The manufacturer has produced a detailed fitting guide to cover residential and commercial property, and we will be creating a dedicated Conservatory Roof Conversion Tiling Guide to support it.
