Rugged steel siding & roofing — from a solid 40-year Standard panel up to lifetime-warranty CentralGuard® Prime & Ultra. Choose your level of fade, rust and dent protection.
Panel-Loc Plus is our most popular and versatile panel! It gives residential, agricultural, and light commercial projects the protection of steel with an attractive appearance. There is an extra striation on top of the rib to give it superior durability and protection against extreme weather. Panel-Loc Plus’s versatility means it can be used on a roof or walls as siding and is available in three qualities: Standard, Prime, and Ultra.
Available in 29 and 26 gauge.
Panel-Loc plus comes in panels with 36″ coverage with a distance of 9” in between its ¾” ribs.
All panels are SMP paint and come in a variety of colors. Standard panels feature a 40-year paint warranty.
Engineered with a Siphon Groove to minimize leaks.
Wide fastening surface for easy application.
Unique lap groove hides the overlap, giving a smooth, clean appearance.
Bare (non-painted) Galvalume® and galvanized panels from Central States have an acrylic coating which eliminates using oils during manufacturing and eliminates fingerprinting and foot marking during installation.
The minimum roof slope for the 3/4″ Panel-Loc Plus™ is 2-1/2:12. If slopes less than 3:12 are needed, International Building Code (IBC) allows a sealant tape to be used on the laps of the panel.
Optional DripX condensation control for heightened protection.
Why Panel-Loc Plus
Built to perform — here's what sets it apart.
Fade-resistant CentralGuard® finish
Advanced inorganic pigments, a cross-linked resin and UV blockers fight fading and chalking. Prime & Ultra add a thicker 1.0-mil coat (vs .90 mil on Standard) and a lifetime paint warranty.
Galvalume® rust protection
Prime & Ultra ride on an AZ50 Galvalume® base (zinc + aluminum) for up to 4× the long-term edge-rust protection of standard coatings — backed by a 50-year rust-through warranty.
Dent-resistant steel
Every Panel-Loc Plus is Class 4 impact-rated — the top UL 2218 rating. Step up from Standard’s thin 29-gauge to Prime (thick 29-ga, ~25% more dent resistance) or Ultra (26-ga, ~215% more).
Step up to Prime — lifetime warranty
Standard is a solid 40-year panel, but Prime adds the CentralGuard® finish, a Galvalume® base and a LIFETIME paint warranty for not much more — our most popular choice. Ask us about Prime or Ultra.
Color options
Colors come in up to three finishes (Standard, Prime, Ultra). Textured colors are a CentralGuard® premium upgrade — a matte, shingle-like finish that’s more scratch- and glare-resistant. Representative swatches; view the chart for an exact match.
Standard
40-yr paint warranty · .90 mil paint · AZ35 coating · thin 29 ga
Prime most popular
LIFETIME paint warranty · 1.0 mil CentralGuard® · Galvalume® AZ50, 50-yr rust-through · thick 29 ga
Ultra best protection
LIFETIME warranty · 1.0 mil · Galvalume® AZ50 · 26 ga — 215% more dent resistance
Same panel profile, three levels of metal. Standard is a 40-year, .90-mil painted panel on an AZ35 base (thin 29-ga). Prime upgrades to CentralGuard® 1.0-mil paint with a lifetime warranty, a Galvalume® AZ50 rust coating (50-year rust-through) and a thicker 29-ga for ~25% more dent resistance. Ultra steps up to 26-ga for ~215% more dent resistance.
For not much more than Standard, Prime gets you a lifetime paint warranty (vs 40 years), the chalk- and fade-resistant CentralGuard® finish, and a Galvalume® base with up to 4× the long-term rust protection. It’s our most popular choice and the best value for a building you want to last.
It’s Central States’ premium paint-and-coating system on Prime and Ultra: advanced inorganic pigments, a cross-linked resin and UV blockers that resist fading and chalking, layered over a Galvalume® corrosion-blocking base for maximum life — backed by a lifetime warranty.
Fade is measured in Hunter Units (lower is better). A CentralGuard® finish shifts only a few Hunter units over 30 years — far less than substandard metal — thanks to its UV blockers and chalk-resistant resin.
Yes — every Panel-Loc Plus carries a Class 4 rating, the highest on the UL 2218 impact test. Dent resistance climbs with the metal: Standard (thin 29-ga), Prime (thick 29-ga, ~25% more) and Ultra (26-ga, ~215% more).
PAC Lumber is fantastic. Always helpful to me - a complete novice when it comes to building projects. Several times they have stayed open a few extra minutes for me - and always with a smile on their face. Highly recommend PAC.

I am enjoying that we don't have to run to Dickson to Lowe's! Pac has provided all our needs so far without having to leave Waverly as it should be! There prices on lumber are very compatible with Lowe's, in fact they beat them on some lumber and it's a better quality! They also deliver!!
