Z Purlin
Z purlins are high-strength steel framing components designed in the shape of the letter “Z”. Engineered for durability and versatility, they are typically installed parallel to the building’s eave to provide reliable support for roof decking and wall sheeting. Z purlins are commonly used in both roofing and siding applications, offering an ideal solution for a wide range of commercial, industrial, and agricultural structures. Their structural efficiency and ease of installation make them a preferred choice for modern metal building systems.

- Galvanized Z purlins are coated with a protective layer of zinc through a hot-dip galvanizing process, providing superior resistance to rust and corrosion. This makes galvanized purlins an ideal solution for structures exposed to harsh environmental conditions such as coastal regions, high-humidity zones, or areas prone to heavy rainfall or snowfall. The durability and low maintenance requirements of galvanized purlins often result in a lower total cost of ownership over time.
- Red oxide Z purlins are treated with a red oxide primer, offering basic corrosion resistance. While not as robust as galvanized coating, this finish is suitable for interior applications or environments where exposure to moisture and harsh elements is limited. Red oxide purlins may require periodic repainting, especially in outdoor settings, to maintain their protective qualities. They are often chosen for their cost-effectiveness in less demanding conditions.
