Product catalog summary
Introduction
The LYSAGHT Lok-kLip™ system is an innovative solution for end and expansion joints in roofing, specifically designed for use with the kLip-Lok 700 Hi-STRENGTH® sheets. It offers a fast, easy installation process without the need for pre-drilling or special purlin detailing, making it suitable for cyclonic locations and ensuring a weather-resistant seal.

System Components
The system includes a ZiNCALUME® steel bracket and a polyethylene foam weather strip. The bracket functions like a concealed fix bracket, attaching to the ribs of the bottom sheet with standard roofing fasteners.

Benefits
  • Maintains clean roof lines with a low profile.
  • Cost-effective for long-length roofing designs using shorter sheets.
  • Preserves existing roofing warranties when installed correctly.
  • Allows for thermal movement and is compatible with translucent sheeting.

Thermal Expansion
Lok-kLip reduces the impact of thermal movement by using shorter sheets, accommodating the natural expansion and contraction of metals due to temperature changes.

Installation and Testing
The Lok-kLip system has been tested for wind uplift and weather resistance, ensuring performance to specifications when installed according to guidelines. Installation involves snapping the bracket onto the kL-700HS rib and securing it with fasteners, with specific instructions for cyclonic and non-cyclonic areas.

Roof Design Considerations
Ensure roofing sheets do not exceed recommended spans and slopes for effective drainage. The installation process includes turning up and down the pans of sheets and using weather strips to prevent water ingress.
