All LYSAGHT® roof claddings can be used for both roofing and walling. This brochure focuses on cladding
profiles specifically designed for walling, but does include our three most popular roofing profiles which are
also used for walls. All LYSAGHT® wall cladding products are made from Australian-made ZINCALUME® or
COLORBOND® steel, so you know you are buying quality.
This brochure is a guide to the design and installation of steel walling manufactured by Lysaght. We intend
that it is used by all trades and professions involved with specifying and applying the wide range of our
products.
We refer only to genuine steel cladding manufactured by us and marketed under our brand names. Our
recommendations should only be used for our products because they are based on testing of our profiles,
base metal thicknesses (BMT) and material finishes.

MAINTENANCE
Optimum product life will be achieved if all external walls are
washed regularly. Areas not cleaned by natural rainfall (such as
the tops of walls sheltered by eaves) should be washed down
according to our maintenance guidelines.
SAFETY, STORAGE AND HANDLING
Handling Safety - LYSAGHT® product may be sharp and heavy.
It is recommended that heavy-duty cut resistant gloves and
appropriate manual handling techniques or a lifting plan be used
when handling material.
Keep the product dry and clear of the ground. If stacked or
bundled product becomes wet, separate it and dry thoroughly
with a clean cloth. Handle materials carefully to avoid damage:
don’t drag materials over rough surfaces or each other; don’t drag
tools over material; protect from swarf.
METAL & TIMBER COMPATIBILITY
Lead, copper, free carbon, bare steel and green or some
chemically-treated timber are not compatible with this product.
Don’t allow any contact of the product with those materials, nor
discharge of rainwater from them onto the product. Supporting
members should be coated to avoid problems with underside
condensation. If there are doubts about the compatibility of other
products being used, ask for advice from our information line.
CUTTING
Lengths are custom cut. Check maximum and minimum with
your supplier.
For cutting thin metal on site, we recommend a circular saw with
a metal-cutting blade because it produces fewer damaging hot
metal particles (swarf) and leaves less resultant burr than does a
carborundum disc.
INSTALLATION ADVICE
Cut materials over the ground and not over other materials.
This manual provides some basic installation guidance on the

1800 641 417.
FASTENERS
Where insulation is to be installed, you may need to increase the
length of the screws given, depending on the density and thickness
of the insulation. When the screw is properly tightened:
• into metal: there should be at least three threads protruding
past the support you are fixing to, with rib fixed screws the
Shankguard must not reach that support;
• i nto timber: the screw must penetrate the timber by the same
amount that the recommended screw would do if there were no
insulation.
SEALED JOINTS
For sealed joints use screws or rivets and neutral-cure silicone
sealant branded as suitable for use with galvanised or
ZINCALUME® steel.
WALLING SOLUTIONS

SIDE-LAPS
Refer to the LYSAGHT® Roofing & Walling Installation Manual
regarding side-laps. If added side-lap fastening is required then
the choice of fastener should be to match the aesthetics of the
installation with consideration of the features of the walling profile
and it’s fixing fasteners.

CUSTOM ORB® is the classic corrugated cladding. It is ideal
for traditional or contemporary design and is the most popular
LYSAGHT® profile.
It is long, wide, strong, lightweight and economical and it can be
fixed quickly and easily.
CUSTOM ORB® is versatile so it can be used for commercial,
industrial and residential buildings.
CUSTOM ORB® can be gently curved and this is reflected in some
16mm
of today’s most adventurous and dramatic designs.

FASTENING SHEETS TO SUPPORTS

CUSTOM ORB® is pierce-fixed to timber or steel supports. This
means that fastener screws pass through the sheeting.
You can place screws through the crests or in the valleys. For
walling, valley-fixing is the standard industry practice.
Crest fixing
Always drive the screws perpendicular to the sheeting, and in the
centre of the corrugation or crest. Side-lap fastener

Don’t place fasteners less than 25mm from the ends of sheets. Don't fix here

SIDE-LAPS
CUSTOM ORB® is overlapped at the sides not less than 1.5
corrugations. It is generally considered good practice to use
fasteners along side-laps however, when cladding is supported as Valley fixing
indicated in maximum support spacings, side-lap fasteners are not
usually needed when crest fixed. When valley-fixed, the cladding
needs a side-lap fastener in all laps, at each support.
END-LAPPING Crest: 3 fasteners †
End-laps are not usually necessary because CUSTOM ORB® is
available in long lengths.

EASYCLAD® INSTALLATION
EASYCLAD® can be attached to the supporting frame with the
panels either running vertical or horizontal.
The first panel is held in place by a CD 40 starting clip, flashing First Sheet - CD 40 Clip Intermediate Sheet
or by a trim channel fitted over the panel. The underlapping or
side of this panel is then fastened to each support adjacent to
the return lip. The next panel is then overlapped and hooked
over the return lip, with the underlapping side being fastened
as previous. The laying of subsequent sheets follows this First Sheet - Trim channel
procedure.
For aesthetic reasons, end-laps are not recommended.

two or three corrugations may detract from the final look of the
installation.
Start fixing near the centre of the sheet on the one edge
(underlapping edge) and work outwards towards the ends of the
sheet. Place successive rows of fasteners parallel with the first row,
working similarly from the centre.
If the sheet is long (about 3000mm or longer), be very careful that
the sheet remains parallel/straight, along both edges.
Take care the corrugations are not flattened, thus forcing the sheets
to become wider.

FASTENING SHEETS TO SUPPORTS

SPANDEK® is pierce-fixed to timber or steel supports. This means
that fastener screws pass through the sheeting.
You can place screws for SPANDEK® through the crests or in the
valleys. For walling, valley-fixing is the standard industry practice.
Always drive the screws perpendicular to the sheeting, and in the
centre of the corrugation or rib.
Crest fixing
Don’t place fasteners less than 25mm from the ends of sheets.
Side-lap fastener
SIDE-LAPS
The edge of SPANDEK® with the anti-capillary groove is always the
underlap (see figures on this page). It is generally considered good
practice to use fasteners along side-laps however, when cladding
is supported as indicated in Maximum Support Spacings, side-lap
fasteners are not usually needed when crest fixed. When valley-
fixed, the cladding needs a side-lap fastener in all laps, at each
support.
END-LAPPING Valley fixing
End-laps are not usually necessary because SPANDEK® is available
in long lengths. Crest: 3 fasteners †

If you want end-laps, refer to the LYSAGHT® Roofing and Walling

Installation Manual.

 TRIMDEK®
TRIMDEK® is a stylish, ribbed profile with subtle fluting in the pans
to provide strength and long spanning capabilities.
Strong, durable, versatile roof and wall cladding available in long
lengths so one sheet may be used from eaves to floor without
end-laps.
The strength, spanning ability, lightness and rigidity of TRIMDEK®
profile permits wide support spacings to be used with safety.
Long, straight lengths of TRIMDEK® can be easily aligned.
