Easy-Trim Hip Tile Clips
Secures cut tiles along the hip!
Corrosion-free metal hip tile clips designed to mechanically secure small cut tiles along the hip line. Hips are often exposed to greater wind pressure than the main roof, making cut tiles especially vulnerable to uplift and slippage. Each pack contains 20 long (J-profile) clips and 20 short (C-profile) clips; used together they support the underside of the cut tile and anchor its head at the interlock, helping to keep tiles in place and resist wind uplift.
Conforming to NHBC recommendations for cut-tile fixing and BS 5534:2014 Annex A, these clips provide a durable mechanical fix. The long clips can be nailed to the hip batten or hooked over the tile batten, while the short clips grip the head of the cut tile against its neighbour. They work with Easy-Trim Ridge F Hip Accessory Kits or other dry-fix ridge systems to deliver a secure, standards-compliant hip detail.
