Butlerib II: Economical, Easily Serviceable
Butlerib II Roof Panel
The Butler II (BRII) is the most economical roof for Butler buildings. It is a through-fastened roof that offers superior uplift resistance due to the use of the Butler Scrubolt instead of self-drilling screws. Not only does the Scrubolt offer twice the pullout strength when compared to self-drilling screws, it also adds to the weather-tightness of the panel because it doesn’t readily “gnaw” away at the BRII roof panel when acted upon by the thermal movement of the roof as a self-drilling screw would. This leads to a longer service life than other through-fastened roofs. Additionally, the BRII roof doesn’t require any specialized tools for service, making it a great choice if the property owner is going to do minor repairs and maintenance with in house crews.
The BRII Butler roof is a great option for:
- Shops
- Garages
- Industrial buildings
- Outbuildings
VSR II: The Architect’s Roof
VSR II Roof Panel
The Butler VSR II roof is truly the architect’s standing seam roof. Not only is it visually appealing, but it is also designed to fit most specifications for architectural standing seam roofs. Another benefits is that it is designed with Butler’s weather-tight features. Unlike competitors’ architectural roof panels that are joined with a small batten strip or snapped together, Butler’s VSRII panels are mechanically seamed together for superior protection against the elements. The VSRII’s clip also allows up to two inches of movement, allowing the roof to move with the natural expansion and contraction of the roof, adding to the effective service life of the Butler roof.
The VSRII roof is a great option for:
- Schools
- Churches
- Commercial buildings with visible roof lines
- Fascia
MR-24: The Industry Leader in Weather-Tight Construction
MR-24 Roof Panel
The Butler MR-24 roof is the crème de la crème of standing seam roof systems. When you need the ultimate protection for what lies under your roof, you need the MR-24 roof system. It features a mechanically seamed panel with the patented 360-degree double-lock Pittsburgh seam (the same seam found on the rim of your soda can), a movable clip fastened with the Butler Scrubolt to absorb the thermal movement of the panels, seamed in gable trim and parallel flashings, and engineered roof curbs. These features combine to make the MR-24 roof a highly engineered system, acting as a monolithic steel structure over your building. No wonder it’s one of the only roof systems with over forty years of in place performance that continues to outlive its warranty.
The MR-24 roof system is ideal for:
- Supermarkets
- Low-slope roofs
- Warehouses
- Retail Stores
- Industrial Buildings
