"SSP" ROOF PANEL with VersaLok


Description: The SSP Standing Seam Roof Panel with the patented VersaLok sidelap connection. The panel is a true factory foamed-in-place trapezoidal roof panel with a standing seam offering superior weathertightness. With the IPS patented VersaLok sidelap, the roof panels snap together before being mechanically seamed. This Tecfoam panel is filled with non CFC polyurethane modified isocyanurate achieving R-values up to 39.5.

Dimensions: Nominal 36" coverage; Thickness (T) – 2", 21/2", 3", 4" and 5".

Material: Exterior – 24 ga. steel (std). 26 and 22 ga. also available.
Interior – 26 ga. steel (std). 24 and 22 ga. also available.

Finish Options: Exterior – Galvalume Plus
Dura-20 (silicone polyester)
Royal K-70 (Kynar 500/Hylar 5000)

InteriorUSDA White (standard)
Dura-20 (silicone polyester)

Texture: The exterior skin is smooth as a standard and available embossed as an option. The interior skin is embossed only.

Length: The maximum recommended length is 35'-0". Contact IPS for panel length options.

Fasteners: Concealed clip, 14 ga. steel base with an 18 ga. steel tab.
