The invention relates to a fixing bracket for a ridge tile, hip tile, coping stone or a slate. The fixing bracket comprises a base plate 1, a stem 2 attached to the base plate, a compression or crimped fitting 5 locatable on the stem and a rectangular, semi-circular or angular washer 3 held in place by the compression or crimped fitting, wherein the base plate and stem can be produced in a continuous strip. The compression or crimped fitting and washer may be integral with each other or kept as separate items. The stem may be serrated to provide a surface on which the compression or crimped fitting may grip. The base plate and stem when produced in a continuous length may be cut to the required length. Later embodiments relate to a fixing device comprising a hollow inverted angular section base plate (8 figure 4) into which a stem can be located and held in place; and a fixing device in which semi-circular or angular washers or clips can comprise lugs, locatable under the ends of the ridge or hip tiles. |
