The UNA-CLAD® UC-3 is a Double-Lock Standing Seam roofing system that provides a traditional look and allows mechanical seaming to be utilized to enhance the architects design needs while meeting current wind-load designs for architectural metal roofing. The UC-3 roofing system offers the designer the ability to design or specify various radius roof profiles. Concealed fasteners and patented stainless steel slotted clips allow for expansion and contraction. It is recommended that UC-3 panels be installed over a solid substrate such as plywood and an underlayment of 30# felt. The UC-3 roofing system is available in 24 and 26 gauge painted galvanized steel, .032 painted or anodized aluminum, and 16 oz. or 20 oz. Architectural Grade Sheet Copper. Heavier gauges, narrower widths, and embossing minimize oil canning. Contact Firestone Metal Products for radius capabilities.

Note: Oil canning is not a cause for rejection.
