POLYESTER COATED STEEL SHEETS
Supplied manufactured to required lengths
 

A section of a slate grey sheet in 30/1000 profile x 0.5mm substrate, also available as corrugated and curved corrugated sheets

 

Above profile measurements of the 30/1000 profile

 

A lower cost colour coated roofing and cladding sheet, 

Particularly suited to the agricultural sector, its colours being acceptable to most Rural Planning and Nation Park
Authorities. These profiles have a prime quality polyester coating on a galvanised substrate. Coating thickness is
 approximately 25 microns on hot-dip galvanised zinc coated steel to BS EN 10147, giving a medium life product
that can show slight chalking and colour change in high UV environments.

The maintenance re-paint period in normal un-polluted inland environments is about 10 years in Northern
Europe and between 5 and 10 years in other regions.

Barrier.   For a quality long lasting roof it is advisable to place a barrier between the sheets and the purlins on which they rest to prevent any corrosion of the sheets from the purlins. This is most important where livestock are being housed. It applies equally to both metal and timber purlins as timber purlins are often tanalised (pressure treated with chemicals to prevent rot) In the case of existing metal purlins remove any build up of rust. The barrier can be a liberal coating of bitumen paint or plastic tape.

Handling & Stacking. 

Polyester is a very popular lower cost colour coated roofing and cladding material. Care is needed in the handling and erection of this sheet, as its surface is more prone to scratching than is the 200 micron thick coating of Plastisol. Coated Steel Sheets.

 When stacking the sheets, place one sheet on top of another. DO NOT slide one sheet down the profile of another, as this will scar the coating. The same care also applies when placing the sheets on the roof.

Split Orders. Beware when ordering any coated sheeting for a project in stages separated by weeks or months. The subsequent orders will not be cut from the same coil or group of coils and thus there is a strong possibility that there will be a difference in shades between orders. This is beyond the control of both the steel manufacturer and SLE Cladding Ltd.

 

STORAGE. For long term storage, Polyester sheets in pack form MUST be stored in a dry condition in a dry store.
(preferably heated).
