R-Panel Roof Curb

R-Panel Roof Curb (High Rib Roof Curb) fits any R-Panel metal roof system. Curb dimensions and configuration are built to meet any skylight or rooftop equipment requirements. Pitch correction to match roof slope as specified. Rib-to-rib (R&S Layover) side flanges come standard for a complete weather tight seal. Economical flat flange models are also available. Roof curb may include a custom finish that matches the roof color. Roof Curbs install under the roof panel on the up-slope and over the roof panel on the down-slope, which results in a shingled watershed condition for complete weather-tight condition. In addition, a 20-Year Warranty comes standard on all aluminum curbs.
