Seam-Loc
Long Span III
These standing seam panels are available in 10-3/16" or 18-5/8" width coverage and are designed for mounting over plywood substrates. They are available in 24 gauge steel and seams are 1" in height.
These architectural standing seam panels are connected with a 1-3/4" high snapped seam and are available in 12", 16", and 18" width coverage. They are designed to be utilized over solid substrates but can also be used over open structural framing. A minimum slope for the Seam-Loc roofing panel is 3:12.
These roof panels have 1-1/4" ribs on 12" centers for an even-shadowed appearance. They offer 36" width coverage and are reinforced between the ribs for added strength. Panel is available in 22, 24, or 26 gauge steel.
Loc-Seam
Standing Seam II
Standing Seam 360
Loc-Seam and Loc-Seam 360 standing seam roof panels offer a flat profile for an attractive appearance on higher pitched roofs and are available with
12" or 16" of width coverage with 2" high ribs. Loc-Seam panels have full 360 degree rolled seams formed with an electrical seaming machine.
In American standing seam roof systems, the roof floats on a system of sliding clips that prevent damage from thermal expansion and contraction. Standing seam designs also eliminate 80% of the through fasteners found
in other systems for greater weathertightness. American Standing Seam ll and Standing Seam 360 panels provide 24" width coverage with 3" high ribs. Standing Seam 360 panels are joined by an electric seaming machine, developing a full 360-degree rolled seam to ensure weathertightness - a seam type preferred by many architects and specifiers.
