Overview

The PAC-150 180° Seam is a mechanically seamed standing seam roof panel from PAC-CLAD, the Petersen brand. It belongs to the standing-seam roofing family and is used on commercial roofing in the United States. The panel has a double-lock seam and a narrow rib profile.

The panel is seamed in the field to 180°. It is the double-lock counterpart of the 90° configuration of PAC-150. It is one of the standing seam metal roof panels in the PAC-CLAD range.

Profile and dimensions

The 180° panel stands 1-1/2 in high at the seam and comes in four nominal on-center widths: 12, 16, 18 and 20 in.

  • Seam height: 1-1/2 in
  • Nominal widths: 12 in, 16 in, 18 in or 20 in O.C.
  • Listed minimum slope: 1:12
  • Maximum panel length: 64 ft when factory or shop-formed

The 180° seam is formed by mechanical seaming in the field. Panels can be factory or shop-formed, or field-formed, and field-formed lengths are virtually unlimited.

Pan variations

Four pan styles exist for the 180° seam: smooth as the standard, with striated, pencil rib and flat rib as options. All four share the 1-1/2 in height and the four nominal widths.

Lengths and curving

Panels formed in the factory or shop run to a maximum of 64 ft, and the minimum length is approximately 4 ft. Field-formed lengths are virtually unlimited.

Panels can be curved in the field or at the factory, depending on radius and panel length. The minimum curve radius is 20 ft.

Materials

The 180° panel is rolled from 24 gauge steel or .032 aluminum. Galvalume Plus is available as a steel option.

Seaming equipment

Seamers for the PAC-150 180° Seam are available from pac-clad.diroofseamers.com. Seamers for the 90° configuration are not available from Petersen.

Classifications and approvals

The 180° seam carries three UL classification entries.

  • UL-580
  • UL-1897
  • TAS-125

Its Florida Building Product Approvals are referred to the Acworth, Georgia facility.

Warranty

The finish carries a 35-year non-prorated warranty, and a weathertightness warranty can be obtained.

Finish and production

Colors are Kynar-based 70% PVDF coatings. The PAC-CLAD color guide groups colors into standard, metallic and cool ranges.

The panel is produced only at the Georgia, Maryland and Arizona facilities of Petersen. The facilities are in Acworth, Georgia, in Baltimore, Maryland, and in Phoenix, Arizona.

Seaming

The 180° seam is closed with a mechanical seamer in the field.

Mechanical seamers are required. On slopes greater than 6:12, seamer slippage can scratch the finish, and the scratches may void the warranty. D.I. Roof Seamers is the only supplier of seaming equipment approved by Petersen, and it also supplies hand crimpers and other tools.
