VERTICAL SEAM
VERTICAL SEAM CLIP
Vertical Seam Panel Clip - Clips are placed along the male leg of each panel prior to installing adjacent panels. Design wind
uplift must be considered for proper clip spacing.
SELECTION OF SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The following chart should be used to determine proper fasteners required for clip installation on the selected applications (see
Fastener Selection Guide page 14 for other fasteners available).
Length - Minimum factory cut length is 5'-0" on panels. Panels over 45'-0" require additional consideration in packaging, ship-
ping, and erection. Please consult Metal Sales for recommendations.
There are two critical measurements involving Vertical Seam roof panels: the length of panel overhang required at the eave, and
the peak end. In each case a certain measurement is required. Check each measurement to ensure panel placement gives you the
distance required at the eave, and peak condition. In most cases any variance can be taken out at the eave or peak ends.
* Length of Dekfast will vary depending on the total thickness of the rigid insulation and metal.
** Contact your local Metal Sales branch representative for more information (see pages 2 and 3).
*** 12" Panel Only.
