Description

R-Mer Span is a structural standing seam roof system. It consists of a unique profile containing mesas throughout the panel to minimize "oil canning." The 2 3/8" high vertical seam makes R-Mer Span both aesthetically pleasing as well as the ideal roof system to withstand the most severe weather conditions. The heavy duty continuous clip allows for unlimited expansion and contraction. R-Mer Span can be used on slopes down to 1/4" per foot for both retrofit and/or new construction.

Advantages

  • Heavy duty 16 gauge one piece clip design provides for unlimited thermal movement
  • Symmetrically designed panel/cap configuration contains four (4) layers of steel
  • Double bead of factory applied hot melt sealant (water barrier) is completely isolated from clip
  • 2-3/8" High vertical seam
  • Tightest curving capability in industry for structural panel ("Steel - 20 ft. radius; Aluminum - 10 ft. radius")
  • Available for tapered panel applications
  • Profile contains unique mesas to minimize appearance of "oil canning"
  • Spanning capability over open purlins on slopes down to 1/4:12
  • 3/8" high clearance between panel and substrate helps ventilation and reduces possibility of condensation
  • Ideal for retrofits over existing single-plies, BUR's, modified bitumens or other metal roofs
  • Available in a wide variety of colors
