- Material: Galvanized steel with Z150 coating — for enhanced corrosion resistance and long service life.
- Profile: IBR (Inverted Box Rib) profile with 686 mm effective cover width — ensures good drainage and structural strength.
- Thickness: 0.47 mm — a standard gauge balancing strength, lightweight structure, and cost-effectiveness.
- Length: 5.400 m — long sheet length reduces number of joints and gives clean finishes, ideal for larger roofs or sheds.
- Coverage: 686 mm cover width per sheet — efficient coverage per sheet, reducing material and labor requirements.
- Good strength-to-weight ratio — steel sheeting offers strong structural performance with less dead load compared to heavy roofing materials.
- Suitable for a wide range of applications: domestic houses, carports, industrial warehouses, agricultural sheds, and side cladding.

Benefits.
IBR 0.47 mm Galv Z150 Roofing Sheet – 5.4 m (686 mm Cover)
- Durability & weather resistance: Galvanized steel with Z150 coating helps resist rust, corrosion and withstands rain, wind or hail.
- Lightweight yet strong: The 0.47 mm gauge and IBR profile gives good strength-to-weight, reducing load on roof trusses and allowing for simpler framing.
- Efficient coverage & simpler installation: 5.4 m length and 686 mm cover minimize overlaps — fewer sheets needed, faster install, and fewer leak paths.
- Versatile use: Suitable for roofs, walls, sheds or commercial buildings — flexible for many project types.
- Cost-effective: Metal sheeting generally costs less overall than heavy tile or slate roofs — lower structural load, easier install, less labor.
- Good drainage and leak protection: IBR rib design ensures effective water runoff and reduces risk of leaks in heavy rain.
Installation & Maintenance Tips.
IBR 0.47 mm Galv Z150 Roofing Sheet – 5.4 m (686 mm Cover)
- Ensure correct purlin spacing and structural support — 0.47 mm IBR sheeting works best when installed on correctly spaced trusses or purlins (check local building standards).
- Use appropriate fasteners (galvanized or stainless) — to prevent corrosion at fixing points and maintain long-term roof integrity.
- Allow for expansion/contraction — steel roofing expands in heat; ensure correct overlap, end-laps and ventilation.
- Consider insulation or thermal barrier under sheeting — metal roofs can heat up under direct sun; insulation helps with indoor temperature control.
- Regular inspection in coastal or high-humidity areas — ensure the galvanized coating remains intact and check for signs of rust at edges or fastener points.
