Premium HT Tile & Metal™  from MFM Building Products Corp offers unparalleled protection and ease of installation for both tile and metal roofing systems. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures and prevent water penetration, this product is a game-changer for roofing professionals. 

Premium HT Tile & Metal™ is a 60-mil self-adhering roofing underlayment that combines a high-grade reinforced polyester fabric with a high-temperature rubberized asphalt adhesive system. Its fiberglass-reinforced core enhances its durability and resistance, ensuring comprehensive roof protection. This innovative underlayment bonds seamlessly to the substrate and seals around fasteners, effectively limiting damage caused by water leaks. 

One of the standout features of Premium HT Tile & Metal is its impressive high-temperature resistance, rated for applications up to 250°F. This makes it an ideal choice for roofs in hot climates or those with high sun exposure. The product's non-slip polyester surface ensures excellent foot traction, providing a safer working environment for installers. 

The underlayment can be applied directly to the roof deck surface. It is highly flexible, allowing it to accommodate the expansion and contraction of building materials, which is crucial for maintaining a secure seal over time. Moreover, the split release liner simplifies installation in complex areas such as valleys, ridges and around chimneys. 

Premium HT Tile & Metal is designed to be installed in temperatures at or above 50°F and  can be exposed for up to 180 days, giving contractors ample time for installation without compromising the material’s integrity. It aggressively adheres to a variety of surfaces, including plywood, OSB and most other building materials. 

The underlayment meets a number of rigorous building standards, including ASTM D 1970, TAS 103-95, Florida Building Code FL 11842.4, and Miami-Dade County approval. Additionally, it is listed under the Fortified Building Program, underscoring its reliability and performance. 

With a 10-year limited warranty, Premium HT Tile & Metal provides long-term peace of mind for both contractors and homeowners. This product is not just another underlayment; it is a comprehensive solution designed to enhance the durability and lifespan of a roof.
