FlexLoc®
The FlexLoc® panel system combines a clean, flat appearance with an easy-to-engage seam. This seam becomes even tighter as the up-lift pressure increases. Because of this feature, the FlexLoc® is an ideal system for curved applications as well as a soffit system.
CONCEALED FASTENING SYSTEM
The FlexLoc® system is attached to the substructure by concealed
clips with a low profile pancake head fastener.
APPLICATION
FlexLoc® panels can be used for soffit systems or barrel vault
roofs. On barrel vault roofs, FlexLoc® panels should be attached to
a waterproofed, solid substructure. When used as a fascia, panels canbe
applied to open framing such as the MBCI LiteFrame system.
ARCHITECT/ENGINEER INFORMATION
1. Use a properly aligned and uniform substructure to avoid panel distortion.
Typical substructure for barrel roofs: two layers of 3/8" plywood
over metal deck. For fascia and soffit: subgirts or hat sections.
2. For barrel roofs, the panels must be installed over a completely
waterproofed substructure. If the waterproofing membrane is mechanically
attached with metal fasteners of any type, they should be covered to protect
the back side of the panels. Any mechanical attachment device that does
not lay flat on the deck will telegraph through the panels.
3. Panels are subject to surface distortion due to improperly applied
fasteners. Overdriven fasteners will cause stress and induce oil canning
across the panel at or near the point of attachment. Oil canning is not
a cause for rejection.
4. For continuous panels over 40', please inquire.
5. Panels can be walked down to a 10'-0" minimum radius. Contact MBCI
for radii of 10'-0" or less.
