R Panel
36" Coverage · 1-1/4" Ribs · 26 & 24 Gauge
R Panel is the workhorse of Florida metal roofing. Three feet of coverage per sheet, tall 1-1/4" ribs every 12 inches, and a stiff profile that spans purlins without sagging. It goes up fast with color-matched screws and handles roofs and walls equally well.

About this panel
Strong, simple, and ready today
Roofs and walls
Like PBR, it suits barns and pole buildings; use it on workshops, garages, carports and homes, then run the same panel down the walls for a matched look. Painted colors come in 26 gauge; 24 gauge Galvalume is there when the job calls for a heavier sheet.
Cut to your list
Send us a cut list and we cut every sheet to the inch, up to 40 feet. Pick up within 1–2 business days at our Tampa warehouse or have it delivered anywhere in Florida.
