Description

ROOFTRAK® IFP-MR integrated fixing point system for fully supported metal roofing.


Features and benefits:

  • Designed for use in fully supported metal roofing as a fixing point which can move with the metal roof covering as it expands and contracts overcoming the problem of providing an external fixing point without limiting thermal movement. It can move up to 25 mm making it compatible with all metal roofing coverings.
  • Factory fitted with a flashing flange which can be supplied in any metal roofing material so that it integrates with the roof it is being used on.
  • Where necessary, should be used with the IFP-MB movement bracket to enable the free movement of the fitting.
