Panel Profile
What this panel actually looks like in cross-section — including how it's fastened.
One profile across three options — the Glossy, Textured, and White Liner panels are all the same Tuff Rib Ag rolled shape. They differ only in gauge and finish: 28-ga glossy, 26-ga textured, or 29-ga white liner. Screws seat in the flat valleys between the 3/4" ribs.
Available Colors
Glossy Finish
Gold, Patina Green, Avocado Green, and Dark Blue are premium colors available at additional cost on Galvalume panels. Free metal samples available for 100% color matching.

White Liner Panel
Get pricing →The White Liner Panel is the same Tuff Rib Ag profile in a thinner 29-gauge metal, available only in white, with a lesser exterior-grade paint and no warranty. It's designed for bright white interiors — ceilings and walls in warehouses, shops, and barns — priced for secondary applications.
