Product Description

RT7® is a medium rib-height trapezoidal roofing profile, has an exceptional strength to weight ratio and demonstrates impressive spanning capability and water carrying capacity at a relatively low pitch.

Manufactured from high tensile material and supplied in a range of substrates and surface finishes, RT7® lends itself to a wide range of design options, including curving, and is equally practical when utilised as commercial, industrial or residential roofing and cladding.

A purpose designed stiffened underlapping support leg offers:

Extra support for the overlapping edge
Prevents separation of the lapping edge
Prevents water ingress at the laps
Prevents deformation when screwing off the roof
Roofing installer friendly and saves on installation costs

Applications

Commercial and industrial roofing
Residential roofing
Cladding in standard or reverse run profile
Drape curving
Crimp curving
Fencing
Garage door cladding

Available in a wide range of metal substrates and surface finishes including galvanised, Zincalume, ZAM, Aluminium, Stainless Steel, Colorcote and Colorsteel (.40mm BMT .55mm and .75 mm BMT) or aluminium (.70mm BMT and .90mm BMT).

A full range of matching accessories is available including ridging, flashings, underlays, fasteners and rainwater systems.

Design Guidelines

The designer needs to take into account a number of issues to ensure that the most appropriate roofing and cladding product is chosen.

The chosen profile must meet certain performance criteria; these are centred around the profile’s ability to shed water from the roof and the ability of the product to span purlin and girt spacing's and meet design criteria.

Refer to Roofing Industries Profile Technical Summary for tables of maximum spans (intermediate and end) for each wind zone.

Selection of the correct grade of material and appropriate surface coating is imperative to ensure that RT7 performs satisfactorily in the environment it is to be installed in and to meet the requirements of the NZBC.

Contact Roofing Industries for environmental categories and surface coating literature. Zincalume and galvanised steel is available in a full range of Colorcote or Colorsteel pre-painted finishes.

Environmental

All Roofing Industries profile metal cladding is recyclable.
