Boosted Capistrano

Boosted Capistrano is an accessory cap piece from Eagle Roofing Products. It is layered over selected Capistrano field tiles to vary the barrel depth of the roof, in the manner of a mortar-boosted clay roof. In Eagle's range it is a roof-system component and not a stand-alone field tile, and it is used in residential concrete tile roofing.

The pieces are made exclusively for the Capistrano profile. A Boosted piece is chosen to go with a base tile, and Eagle shows contrasting accessory and base colors as adding depth.

• Cap piece width, counted without the base tile: 6 1/2 inches
• Cap piece length, counted without the base tile: 13 1/2 inches
• Weight per piece: approximately 4.8 pounds (not including mortar)

The cap is applied over 10, 20 or 30 percent of the Capistrano field, and the installed weight per 100 square feet of field tile rises with the percentage.

• West Coast: 990 pounds at 10 percent, 1,080 pounds at 20 percent and 1,170 pounds at 30 percent
• East Coast: 970 pounds at 10 percent, 1,055 pounds at 20 percent and 1,145 pounds at 30 percent

Accessory colors complement the base tile, and the colors offered depend on region. Blended colors can read as a single tone on the accessory pieces. The product page lists the following items.
