238T

The 238T combines the attributes of snap-lock & mechanically seamed into one unique panel. The 238T has a seam in the form of a “T” and is a two-piece mechanically seamed structural Standing Seam roof panel.

Benefits of the 238T include:

Individual panel replace-ability after installation is complete
Unlimited thermal movement
Amazing wind uplift capabilities
Incredible static water performance
Symmetrical panel design for reduced waste

238T Features

Perfect for low slopes, open frame, and retrofit
Bi-Directional panel installation (excludes metallic color selections)
Pre-install clips
Center starting point possible
Superior water tightness
Jobsite Production capabilities for long panels to avoid troublesome end laps
Oil-can-reducing striations or stiffener ribs available
Minimum slope ¼:12
Curving Capable

In addition to standard panels, Architectural Building Components can taper the 238T. With a minimum slope requirement of 1/4:12, this panel is ideal for almost any design.

Retrofit Roof Installation Over an Existing Metal Roof

238T Series panels have no end laps because they are manufactured right onto the roof in lengths up to 250 feet using one of our Archzilla^® jobsite production monster trucks.

Call one of our knowledgeable area metal roof specialist for an evaluation of your facility’s metal roof and ask if a retro-fit solution would work in your situation.
