Description

We can manufacture custom lengths up to 10 meters, ensuring a precision fit for any size, from small refurbishments to large-scale new builds.

Specifications

  • Material: High-Tensile Galvanised Steel (BS & European Standards)
  • Thickness: 1.6mm and 2.0mm
  • Section Depths: 140mm, 175mm and 200mm
  • Maximum length: 10,000mm (10m)

Versatile Connection Systems

Our Z Purlins can be configured to meet your specific structural load requirements using two primary methods:

  • Sleeved System: Optimised for buildings with three or more bays. The sleeve sits on the cleat to connect two Z Purlins, significantly increasing the strength and rigidity of the structure.
  • Butted System: Best for smaller spans, lighter loadings, or instances where space is restricted, such as fitting within the web of a rafter.

Essential Purlin & Side Rail Accessories

  • To ensure your structural framework remains level and resists twisting or wind suction, we manufacture a full suite of matching galvanised accessories:
  • Sag Bars & Apex Ties: Prevents purlin rotation mid-bay and holds the top roof sections in perfect alignment.
  • Side Rail Supports: Vertical bars that add stability to wall cladding, protecting against wind pressure and suction loads.
  • Diagonal Wire Ties: Used in horizontal side rail applications to maintain level sections across various bay sizes (Mid, Split, or Part Bay).
  • Eaves Beams & Ties: Critical components that bridge the eaves beam to the first Z Purlin, reinforcing the roof pitch transition.

Custom Manufacturing & Refurbishments

Whether you are designing a new structure or need to match existing Z Purlin profiles for an extension or repair, our team provides bespoke manufacturing to your exact measurements.
