PRODUCTS THAT PERFORM
 

1 Unmatched coating performance
Resists chalking and fading

Our standard exterior coating for painted panels is the Butler-Cote® 500 finish system, a full strength, 70% Kynar 500® or Hylar 5000® coating. Our coating will resist chalking and fading better that industry standard Silicone Polyester coatings.

4 Sealant Groove
Assures weathertighntness

Slotted Holes
Allow expansion and contraction

Daily temperature changes are a roof system's number one enemy. As outside temperatures change, the roof must be able to accommodate the forces of thermal expansion and contraction. The Butlerib II roof system offers factory-punched slotted holes in roof panels to accommodate these forces. Factory punching helps avoid the tearing and loosening of roof panels common to other systems, which ultimately result in holes and leaks.

  

2 Deep Corrugation
Affirms strength

The depth of a panel's corrugation is a critical factor in a roof's strength, durability and ability to perform over the long term. That's why Butlerib® II panels offer the deepest and widest corrugations in the industry to provide unequaled strength and durability for both wind uplift and roof traffic. In fact, Butler uses as much as 8% more steel to manufacture a roof panel than the industry standard profiles.


6 Factory Punching
Creates perfect alignment

Proper alignment of roof panels is crucial to roof performance. Improper alignment affects weathertightness and creates problems when installing closures, roof accessories and trim. All roof panels and structural members of the Butlerib II roof system can be factory punched to assure proper alignment.

3 Return Leg
Supports the pressure

To provide added support against roof traffic, Butlerib II roof panels incorporate a "return leg" on all sidelap connections. Roof panels without the return leg often separate under fastener installation or roof-traffic pressure, increasing the probability of roof failure and leaks.

7 Stronger Fasteners
Maintain incredible strength

Because other manufacturers don't factory punch their roof structurals. They are generally forced to use self-drilling screws to make critical clip and panel attachments. Butler factory punches structurals, and we use the Butler Scrubolt™ fastener for clip and panel attachment. These high-strength, substantial Scrubolt fasteners have twice the pullout strength of industry-standard self-drillers.

8 Mitered Panels
Maintain incredible strength

To seal out weather and pests, the Butlerib II wall system features mitered panels at the eave. In addition to improving your building's appearance, mitered panels also help ensure square and accurate erection.

9 Warranty
10 years of guaranteed protection.

Superior engineering and top-quality materials make it possible for Butler to offer the industry's only 10 year warranty for a fastened-down rib roof system.warranty

10 Steel-Rod Bracing
Provides solid reinforcement

No matter how strong the building, the bracing system is its backbone. Over the years, Butler steel-rod bracing retains its original strength and tightness. It doesn't stretch or sag like wire rope and cable, allowing your building to move or rock under wind loads.

11 Research
A fully tested system

Our Butler Research Center performs quality control tests of roof materials, parts and processes. The use of sophisticated testing equipment enables the staff to predict actual field performance of a product and helps ensure that the roof product on your new building will stand up to weathering and age. Our roof products are rigorously tested and evaluated on a ongoing basis in compliance with our Zero Defect Supplier and ISo 9001 requirements.11

Butler II Engineered Accessories
Butler roof and wall accessories are designed to match the panel configuration of your roof to provide maximum weathertightness. All accessories are backed by a Butler warranty.
13 Light-Transmitting Roof Panels
A fully tested system
Over time, industry-standard Light-Transmitting Roof Panels turn yellow and brittle and start to deteriorate after just a few years. This results in leaks and high-maintenance costs. Butler Lite-Panels use a Tedlar® coating to prevent ultraviolet deterioration. They won't turn yellow or brittle, and you'll enjoy natural bright lighting and low maintenance for years.
14 Pipe Flashing
Seals weathertight
Used with all Butler roof systems, these one-piece units create a weathertight seal and are able to withstand an extreme range of temperature.
15 Ridge Ventilators
Seals weathertight
These ventilators are constructed of a strong 24-gauge, galvanized steel to help control condensation.
16 Gravity Ventilator
Prevents water intrusion
Designed to avoid water leakage, these ventilators are made of an ABS plastic material that provides long life and an attractive appearance.
17 Panel Base Conditions
Keep rodents out
Butler is the only industry manufacturer to offer six optional bas conditions to seal out rodents from your building.
