The minimum recommended slope for any "R" and "PBR"-Panel is 1:12. Metal Sales recommends that in all
roof applications sealant be used on sidelaps.
R-Panel is designed to be utilized over open structural framing, but can easily be used with a solid substrate.
The recommended substrate is
5
/
8
" plywood with a 30 pound felt moisture barrier. To avoid panel distortion, use
a properly aligned and uniform substructure. PBR-Panel is recommended for roof applications.
Each panel has a coverage of 36".
Lengths under 5'-0" are available with some cutting restrictions. Maximum recommended panel length is 45'-0".
Longer panels require additional consideration in packaging, shipping, and erection. Please consult your Metal
