CF Tuff-Cast™

Metl-Span’s CF Tuff-Cast™ profile is an appealing insulated metal panel given its appearance of finished precast concrete. The exterior surface of the concrete look exterior panel is a hard aggregated fiber reinforced polymer coating and is created with the factory-applied Tuff Cote® finish system, which offers an extremely durable, impact and abrasion-resistant coating that can withstand severe weather conditions.

The wall panel’s exterior provides your building with an attractive precast concrete building alternative while maintaining energy efficiency. Since the panels have a double tongue-and-groove joint system, the cost of labor is reduced significantly when a building is constructed. This joint system also creates a barrier that is air, vapor, and water resistant. 

The CF Tuff-Cast profile is available in a variety of color options, along with either vertical or horizontal textures. 

The values in the table represent PUR values. For PIR, see data sheet.

Colors

1.  Metallic paint finishes will exhibit color shift, shade variances, striations and longitudinal patterning that are inherent characteristics and are not a product defect or cause for rejection.

2.  All Metl-Span colors are formulated to provide maximum energy-efficiency and solar reflectivity.  All standard available Premium I and Premium II colors have been formulated for maximum solar reflectance.

3.  Prices vary by color, gauge and quantity of metal.  Please contact your Metl-Span representative for complete information.

4.  All colors shown are approximate actual finish colors displayed as accurately as possible.

5. Light Stone – Tuff Cote® does not match the Light Stone – Standard SP color offering.
