About PBU Panel
PBU Panel
PBU Panel is a high-strength symmetric U-rib panel, with six 3/4 inch ribs at 6 inch centers across a 36 inch width. Metal Warehouse Inc. roll-forms it in Sherman, TX for liner, wall, and light commercial roofing work across North Texas and Southern Oklahoma.
PBU Panel is an exposed-fastener panel with a symmetrical U-rib profile: six 3/4 inch ribs spaced at 6 inch centers across 36 inches of coverage. The closer rib spacing gives it a cleaner, more refined appearance than the wider-rib PBR while still delivering excellent structural capacity. It runs down to a 1:12 pitch with butyl tape sealant, and panels are reversible, with color on the opposite side, for wall and soffit applications only.
