Panel Cap must be installed and hand crimped into place before the Z-Closure can be installed.
1. Place a row of Double Bead Tape Sealant across panel and over each rib approximately 4" to6" from panel end.
Before proceeding, make sure Z-Closure placement will accommodate flashing.
2. Field-cut the Z-Closure 2" longer than the panel width. Snip the top and bottom leg of the Z-Closure and bend
both sides back (as shown above). Field-notch Z-Closure end to fit under panel rib and cap.
3. Fasten through the Z-Closure, Tape Sealant, T-Armor panel and substrate with appropriate fasteners.
4. Use a #12-14x1" Self Driller N/W screw to fasten through the side of panel rib, Tape Sealant and Z-Closure.
See page 52 for fastener locations.
