Eagle Roofing Products 1" x 1-3/16" x 8 ft Natural Wood Arched Battens, 12-Piece Bundle Covers 100 Sq Ft

This bundle contains 12 natural wood Eagle Arched Battens, each 1 in. x 1-3/16 in. x 8 ft, sold as one 100 sq ft bundle. The arched profile raises concrete tile above the deck to add ventilation and drainage from eaves to ridge. They are an integral component of Eagle's Ventilated Roof System and part of the Secure Roof Components line.

Key Features:

• Natural wood: This version of Eagle's Arched Battens is supplied in natural wood.
• Elevated airflow: The arch creates added ventilation above the deck and below the tile, allowing increased airflow from the eaves to the ridge.
• Graded lumber: Eagle's Arched Battens are the only elevated battens in the industry made from graded lumber, not brittle plastic.
• Thermal barrier: They create an effective thermal barrier between the deck and the tile, reducing heat transfer and HVAC stress in hot weather.
• Drainage and drying: Raising the tiles increases drainage and airflow, extending the lifespan of the underlayment and other components.
• Ice dam resistance: The ventilated batten application helps prevent ice damming in colder regions and dries the tile in humid areas.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Choose the natural battens where a borate treatment is not required by spec, and lay them eave-to-ridge over the underlayment with fastening per Eagle's guides and the FRSA/TRI or IAPMO ER 2015 manual. Pair them with Eagle's ridge and eave ventilation components for a complete eave-to-ridge air path. Order one bundle per square plus a small overage for hips, rakes, and starter courses.

Tile roofing is elevated work: use fall protection and install per Eagle's installation guides and applicable local building codes.
