Standing Seam Galvalum Roof

While many corrugated steel roofs are made using the thinner 29 gauge steel a minimum of 26 gauge g 90 galvanized steel or more commonly galvalume steel better is used for manufacturing of standing seam metal panels.

Standing seam galvalum roof.

100 aluminum standing seam is simply too soft for the geographic region we serve and can dent too easily from even the slightest hail. It s a thick tough roofing material which easily shrugs off tree branches and other debris. On site rollforming of the metal coil to form panels appropriately spacing clips on the seam per the manufacturer s requirements fastening the clips down to the roof deck for snap lock systems. This combination of galvanized aluminum and zinc has been making homes energy efficient and beautiful for years.

It s not vulnerable to rust corrosion or other debris. Galvalume is a combination of galvanized steel and aluminum. For standing seam it s much more complex and labor intensive and may include. Aligning the panels and.

It has the corrosion resistance high temperature oxidation resistance and heat reflectivity characteristic of aluminum coatings with the. While any standing seam material can dent from hail it s much less likely with a 24 gauge galvalume panel than any other material. Galvalume is incredibly durable. Galvalume stands for galvanized aluminum and it s just about as durable as it gets.

Galvalume standing seam roofing galvalume is sheet steel coated with 55 aluminum 45 zinc alloy. The alloy coating of aluminum and zinc combines the best properties of both metals. Galvalume is the trade name for a patented sheet steel product having a coating of corrosion resistant aluminum zinc alloy applied by a continuous hot dipping process. This makes it durable and ensures it will not corrode for the life of the product.
