Ordering Roof Panels and Screws
Care -should be taken to order_ panels of the correclength to avoid having to make-_.
corrective measures after purchase. Panel lengths should fall 2 to 3 inches short of the ridge when
a vented_ridge_is desired, and should -extend 2 to- 3-inches_past-the- eave- to allow a sufficient drip
edge (except as noted on pg. 3 concerning gutters). When a roof transition is involved, panels of
the upper portion should be ordered short to allow placement of the transition flashing (see
diagram on p.'10). The Gulf Coast sales personnel are ready to assist customers with information
specific to their particular roof.
rt Specially-washered screws applied through the flat of the metal is the most recommended
method used to attach roofing panels. 1-inch screws can be used if penetration of only 3/4 inch is
either necessary or desired; otherwise, 11/2 inch screws are usually recommended. 21/2 inch screws
are also available, and are often used by those who adhere to through -the -rib fastening, and for
ridge -cap application. See pages 6 and 7 for more information on screw spacing and ordering.

should be mentioned when ordering transition flashing.

Paint and finishes of Gulf Coast panels and trim are designed to withstand severe rain and
wet weather conditions. Neither paint, galvanized, or Galvalume finishes, however, are designed to
be in continuous contact with water for long periods of time. Damage will result if uninstalled

Codes allow re -roofing over shingles without the use of battens calculation chart
provided the roof has been checked by a licensed roofing contractor to insure levelness and pullout integrity.
Gulf Rib metal roofing can be separated from the moisture barrier by minimum, nominal 1 "x3" yellow
pine battens spaced on maximum 24"centers, or according to ASCE calculations where applicable. Since
direct contact between pressure treated lumber and metal roofing must be avoided in order to prevent
potential corrosion, Gulf Coast Supply sells only untreated battens.
CAUTION: Battens must be fastened to the roof deck with minimum #6 screws at 12" on -center, or two
minimum 8d common or pneumatic nails spaced 8" on -center, or one every 4" on -center (or by applicable
calculations according to ASCE 7-98). Battens must be installed to support the entire width and length
of ridge, eave,)hip, valley, and gable -end trims.
For solid decking, at least 15/32-inch structural plywood supported on rafters at a maximum of 24" on
center is required.
If care is taken, metal roofing application can be aided by pre -drilling panels,, allowing screws to go _
quickly and accurately into the desired -spacing. Pre -drilling will work provided that pilot holes are placed
accurately in the proper locations on panels. Purlin spacing must be uniform and carefully measured.
For panel lap details, see Figure 5 on page 4. _
Gulf Coast Policies
Delivery policy Delivery charges apply to all orders where delivery is requested. Please consult your Gulf Coast sales
department for details.
Sales tax All orders picked up at Gulf Coast Supply, and all orders delivered within the state of Florida, are subject to
state sales tax. Tax exemptions should be verified prior to delivery or customer pickup.
Warrantied products A 40 year warranty applies to most material* manufactured from painted coil stock, and a 25-year
warranty to Galvalume material. Ask for details.
Indemnity All prices and designs are subject to change without notice
Disclaimer While we have made every attempt at accuracy in this manual, we are not responsible for typographic,
printing, or technical errors.
Oil Canning —a repeating, wave -like appearance in the length of the panel —is a common and often unavoidable
phenomenon in metal panels like Gulf Rib roofing that have large, flat areas within the panel. It is therefore not a
defect, nor a cause for rejection. See p. 3 for details on how to avoid oil -canning.
Return policy All panel orders and special order (non -stock) trims are considered the property of the customer and non-
refundable once they are manufactured. Standard trim and accessories are refundable providing they are returned in a
clean, resalable condition. For details, go to www.gulfcoastsupply.com and click on "No Hassle Return Policy" at
