Installation Supplies

MetalMax sells fasteners, underlayment, sealants, tapes, closures, & roof boots that are easy to use and are designed/formulated specifically to attach, seal or insulate metal roofing and siding to create a weathertight structure. Underlayment is a water-resistant barrier material that is installed directly onto your roof deck, underneath the metal panels. Fasteners and Sealants are available in colors to blend with your roofing and siding panels. We also offer permanent touch-up paint pens to fix panel scratches and nicks.

FASTENERS

Our Fasteners are designed specifically to attach metal roof and sidewall panels used in pre-engineered metal building applications. All fasteners come standard with an enhanced corrosion resistant coating. 36 standard colors are available.

Benefits:

Exceptional corrosion and weather resistance
Conventionally electroplated and painted fasteners will normally resist the corrosion effects of Kesternich testing for 15-20 cycles.
Powder-coated finish outperforms the conventional dip-spin applied wet-coatings.
Powder is formulated to provide color retention, plus chalk and fade resistance expected of finished building panels.
Excellent film hardness. Our powder coated fasteners resist scratches and damage during shipping better than conventionally applied wet paints. The overall toughness and heavier coating thickness of the powder finish provides excellent resistance to the abuses of normal installation.

SYNTHETIC UNDERLAYMENT

Our synthetic underlayment is a highly engineered coated woven synthetic material that offers a reliable secondary layer of protection under all types of primary sloped roofing material. Unlike felt, its recyclable polyolefin construction doesn’t expand or contract and is inert to mold and mildew growth. It is 100% synthetic and is unaffected by water. It is engineered to lay flat and will not buckle or wrinkle when exposed to temperature and moisture fluctuations on the roof. Unlike oil saturated felts, our synthetic underlayment does not dry out, leach oils in the heat, nor does it become stiff, difficult to roll or crack in the cold.

Benefits:

304 Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, & Aluminum are available.
Painted #43 Stainless are available to match most architectural panel colors.
Rivets come in bags of 100 pieces.

PEEL & STICK UNDERLAYMENT

Our Peel and Stick Roof Underlayment is a modified rubberized asphalt underlayment with a tough, rugged surface and a self-sealing lap system. It is an advanced, slip resistant, synthetic polymer surfaced, self-adhering, roofing underlayment that is designed for 2:12 or greater sloped roof applications subject to the effects of ice damming and wind driven rain. It can be used under many types of roofing materials including metal, tile, shakes, slate, and both asphalt and synthetic shingles.

SINGLE BUBBLE INSULATION

This reflective insulation comes 4-mm thick and consists of a layer of air bubbles laminated between aluminum foil on one side and white polyethylene on the other.

Benefits:

Reduces condensation, air infiltration, and energy costs
Reduces inside heat gains and provides an excellent R-value
Protects livestock
Is a reliable, long-lasting vapor barrier
Prevents condensation and is not affected by mold
Easy to clean

DOUBLE BUBBLE INSULATION

This reflective insulation comes 8-mm thick and consists of two layers of air bubbles laminated between aluminum foil and a while polyethylene film.

Benefits:

Reduces condensation, air infiltration, and energy costs
Reduces inside heat gains and provides an excellent R-value
Protects livestock
Is a reliable, long-lasting vapor barrier
Prevents condensation and is not affected by mold
Easy to clean

VINYL BACK INSULATION

Our Fiberglass insulation is a resilient, flexible fiberglass blanket laminated to a high-quality vapor retarder facing. It is the most common and cost-effective solution used for insulating pre-engineered metal buildings. Faced fiberglass can be installed as a single layer or combined with unfaced MBI fiberglass and various support hardware to create a “High R-Value System.”

Specifications:

R-Value = R-10
Approximate Thickness = 3.0″
Available Widths = 36″, 48″, 60″, 72″
Lengths = Custom laminated to length.

EXPANDING FOAM TAPE

Our metal roof and building sealants are self-adhering tape seals made from resilient, open-cell polyurethane foam impregnated with a water-based acrylic-modified asphalt emulsion (AST Hi-Acrylic) or a water-based, acrylic impregnation (MST). They replace and outperform liquid sealants, butyl-tape sealants and closed-cell closures.

INSULATION TAPE

Our insulation tapes are used to seal and seam insulation used in metal and commercial buildings. They are coated with a high-performance cold weather acrylic adhesive offering a superior quick stick. They also provide a strong bond and great performance at low temperatures. Depending on the type of insulation used, we offer a variety of insulation tapes to accommodate your project.

AYR-FOIL: White Polyethylene Adhesive Tape – 7 mil / 175 microns – 2” x 180’
AYR-FOIL: Aluminum Adhesive Tape – 2 mil / 50 microns – 2” X 150’
ECHO: All Weather WMP-VR-R Plus Facing Tape – Mold Resistant – 3 in X 50 yd
ECHO: All Weather Double Coated Polyester Tape – 1.5 in X 60 yd

BUTYL TAPE

This highly elastic butyl tape has excellent surface tack specifically designed for sealing metal roof panel joints and Standing Seam Roof (SSR) endlaps. Its superior surface tack allows it to adhere to metal substrates that are contaminated with light roll forming oil without prewiping the surface. It has excellent adhesion and compressibility to cold substrates and is designed to seal and prevent the entry of dust, air and moisture to produce a weather tight seal in metal building details.

SEALANTS

We offer commercial gun-grade roofing adhesives/sealants in black, white, clear and over 225 standard colors.

PROFILE CLOSURES

These solid closures make a more air-tight system that helps keep out insects and wind-driven rain. Our inside closures go underneath the panel, while our outside closures go on top of the panel and underneath flashings or other trim. Our closures are made using a crosslink polyethylene foam with a unique coating that gives it better UV resistance and better durability than the industry standard.

ROOF BOOTS

MetalMax carries round, square, high temperature and sloped metal roof pipe boots to ensure you are equipped for any type of metal roof configuration. Available in both silicone and EPDM material, we stock most common sizes.
