Why R-Loc Metal Panel
Built to perform — here's what sets it apart.
Commercial-grade strength
R-Loc (the familiar PBR profile) has a tall 1-1/4″ rib and a purlin-bearing leg for strength, easier installation and maximum purlin spacing — ideal for low-pitch commercial roofs and walls.
Roof or wall, big or small
A versatile 36″-coverage panel for roofing, siding and commercial buildings — shops, barns, storage and more.
Corrosion-resistant & low-maintenance
A Galvalume® AZ50 base under a baked-on paint system stands up to weather with minimal upkeep.
Backed by a lifetime warranty
Prime panels carry CentralGuard® protection — lifetime paint adhesion, 30-year chalk & fade, and 50-year Galvalume® perforation coverage.
