SPECIFICATION DATA SHEET

FLAT SHEET AND COIL

1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Aluminum or Metallic Steel with PVDF finish used to produce flat
sheets and coils.
Aluminum Alloy ASTM B 209 Alloy 3003 H14 or 3105 H14, or
Metallic Coated

Steel ASTM A 653 Structural Steel SS 50 (SS 37
for 48” width) with G90 coating or ASTM A 792 structural steel
grade 50 (grade 37 for 48” width) with AZ50 coating. Materials
are pretreated, primed and coated with a full strength PVDF
(containing a minimum of 70% KYNAR 500

®

or HYLAR 5000

®

Resin) coating system, consisting of nominal 1.0 mil total dry film
thickness (.2 mil primer with a .8 mil top coat). Reverse side is
coated with a wash coat of .4 to .5 mil dry film thickness.
Galvanized materials are pretreated with a high-performance zinc
phosphate system.
Masking, a strippable polymer film, can be applied as a protective
covering for handling during fabrication and installation of
materials, if requested. The polymer masking must be removed
immediately after installation and should not be exposed to
continued periods of direct sunlight or extreme heat.

Basic Use: Architectural Sheet Metal applications in general
building construction, such as metal roofing, mansard applications,
fascias, soffits, ceilings, storefronts, copings, gravel stops, specialty
accent details, etc.

Materials:

Gauges Available:

Aluminum - .032, .040, .050, .063 and .080 thicknesses.

Metallic Coated Steel - 22, 24 and 29 gauge.
Sheet Sizes - Up to 60" width by length required.
Texture - Smooth and stucco embossed available.

Limitations:

All ATAS materials are pre-finished and, therefore, care should be
taken during fabrication and installation of materials. Fabrication
and installation of materials should conform to standards
established by the Architectural Sheet Metal Community. During
the fabrication and/or forming of the materials, proper bend radii
must be used. Minor scratches should be touched-up immediately,
utilizing an air dry coating furnished by ATAS. For damage other
than minor scratches, such as dents, deep abrasions, or scratches
which have damaged base materials, the actual unit should be
replaced. All metal shavings, chips, and dust must be removed
from material immediately.
