Snap-On Standing Seam
Friday, May 29th, 2009SNAP-CLAD Panels feature architectural panel aesthetics as well as structural panel performance.

Maximum panel length is 64 feet and minimum panel length is 4 feet.
SNAP-CLAD Panels feature a 1-3/4” leg height and a continuous interlock for improved structural performance and wind resistance. A concealed fastener clip system allows for thermal expansion/contraction while providing extraordinary hold-down strength. Two clips are available: a standard clip for most mansard and fascia applications and a high-performance clip for roofing application and UL 90 rated assemblies.
