A selection of our steel wall cladding profile options are shown below. All of these profiles are available curved,
achieve a Class ‘0’ spread of flame rating and can be integrated into our numerous vertical or horizontal built up
system options.

The profiles illustrated are designed to be installed with the broad pan facing outermost, thus giving a smoother/flush
appearance. However, the majority of sections can be reversed allowing a more pronounced surface to be created
by the narrow rib.
Please refer to the Roof Cladding category for these sections. A minimum 0.50mm nominal gauge should be used
for all external wall projects but this may need to be increased to 0.70mm for structural, orientation or material
availability purposes.
Additional profiles including specialist sections, not shown within this web-site, can be made available. For
further advice on the items shown or the availability of sections that may meet your needs but are not
illustrated, Please contact us direct to discuss your specific requirements.

AC 13.5-3 (3 inch corrugated)
Originally the sole profile of choice for the agricultural sector, this section has started to find particular favour with
architects. When produced in high specification finishes and installed horizontally its small sinusoidal form cleverly
mimics the appearance of roller shutter doors and louvres offering an aesthetically pleasing hi-tech appearance
and provides an excellent way of breaking up large scale clad areas. This profile is also available as 14-3 with two
over lap tails.

AC 32-1000 C
This is our most popular wall cladding section. The profile offers an economic and convenient metre wide module,
making it compatible with many of our lining panel options. The broad pan offers a smoother, less ‘industrial’
surface finish than profiles with a narrower pitch and its fully supported side lap prevents, in the majority of cases,
the need for side lap stitching to ensure weather-tightness. Options are available with stiffenning ribs/swages in
the broad pans.

AC 34-1000 C
This section has been designed with a narrower pitch between corrugations than conventional metre wide
sections, offering the advantage of increased load bearing capacity. Predominantly specified on areas where the
anticipated wind loadings are slightly higher than normal this section, when produced in 0.70mm nominal gauge
material, also lends itself perfectly to horizontal applications. The narrower broad flanges are ‘stiffer’ and therefore
less susceptible to ‘stress marking’ when installed to vertical support steelwork – marking, we all too commonly
see when viewing some installed competitor products.

AC 38-914 C
Still regularly specified using it’s original ‘WA6M’ reference, this profile was one of the first to be developed for use
as industrial wall cladding within the UK. Offering a tight 152.4mm pitch this profile is structurally superior to the
metre wide sections we commonly use today, making it ideal for projects where wind loads would make the other
sections impractical. As with AC 34-1000 C this section offers improved stress resistance when installed
horizontally.

AC 50-1000 HR
A specifically developed architectural profile for use on horizontal wall applications this bold ‘half round’ section
provides a high-tech appearance that offers a perfect contrast when used in conjunction with our smaller
sinusoidal section or trapezoidal and composite panel options. Specialist ‘fins’ are available, to offer vertical
breaks across the width of the elevation, thus preventing the need for relatively unsightly vertical end laps. A
shallower 40mm deep section is also available.

Single Skin Walls
Condensation forming on the
inside face of a single skin wall
cladding sheet does not present
the same consequential issues as
on roof cladding. Typically, the
wall can be detailed to allow any
potential build up to drain outside
the building envelope.
However, Dripstop condensation
control fleece can be applied to
the reverse face of our roof
sections and installed as wall
cladding, providing a cost
effective solution in virtually any
environment where condensation
would be a serious nuisance.
Double Skin Walls
Where a double skin insulated
system is required to meet the
thermal performance
requirements laid out in Building

components that you will need.
From insulation and spacer
systems to fixings and sealants,
we can supply the entire system -
