Roof Hugger Retrofit Sub-Purlins are zee-shaped structural members that are typically 10 to 12 feet in length. They are made from minimum 16-gauge, high strength, galvanized steel and specifically notched to fit over the ribs of the existing metal roof panels. This factory notching provides a correct “structure to structure” connection with the least possible increase in assembly height.
In addition, our systems may add strength to the existing roof system thus assisting in offsetting the added weight of the new Metal-over-Metal roof components. Roof Hugger sub-purlins can be fabricated for almost any existing metal roof panel profile including screw-down and standing seams and up to 8-inches tall to accommodate for added insulation between the old and new roofs.
