Six ribs for a strong, bold roof
Dragon IT5 roofing sheets are a box-profile mabati with six ribs and an effective cover width of 820 mm (1 m overall). The ribs are 60 mm wide with 100 mm valleys between them, so they sit closer together than on IT4. That gives the sheet extra stiffness and a bold, modern look.
The trapezoidal ribs give the sheet stiffness and a clean, modern look, and an anti-capillary groove along the overlap helps stop water being drawn back under the sheet. IT5 comes in gauge 28 to 30 with the matching accessories you need, including ridge caps, valleys and roofing nails.
