Star Panel Metal Siding
North Star Metals popular Star Panel, although known as an excellent roofing material, is also great for siding. Our 29 gauge Star Panel also has a 40 yr limited warranty (see below). The Star Panel is used for general roofing and wall applications, and is installed using exposed fasteners. If you want upgrade to our 26 ga. Standing Seam panel, click here.
Our Star Panel Profile has a 36 inch coverage with a full 29 gauge thickness. Our Star Panels can be installed over an open purlin system, or a solid substrate. They can be used for exterior and interior applications.
They are precisely formed with clean, distinct lines. They are intricately designed with a five degree over-bend on the overlap, combined with an anti-siphon groove on the underlap for superior weather tightness. This design also creates a less noticeable overlap, resulting in a more beautiful application.
- Rib spacing 9″ on center
- Anti-Siphon grove helps keep panels watertight
- Panel Coverage 36″
- Rib height 3/4″
- Steel thickness: 29 ga at 80K psi
- Panels lengths from 36″ to 40′
