CF Tuff Wall®
CF Tuff Wall®
The Metl-Span CF Tuff Wall® is an attractive, stucco-like insulated metal wall panel that exhibits the natural beauty sought by many designers and owners. The exterior surface of the panel is a hard aggregated, fiber-reinforced polymer coating created with the factory-applied Tuff Cote® finish system. Tuff Cote® finish offers an extremely durable, impact and abrasion-resistant coating that can withstand severe weather conditions. CF Tuff Wall stucco insulated metal panels are the ideal panel to create the aesthetic appearance of a stucco wall with the impressive R-values and LEED opportunities of an insulated metal panel.
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.
