The SAFLOK 700 concealed fix profile is able to manufacture on site by means of a mobile mill thereby avoiding unnecessary handling, end-lapping and piercing of sheets. SAFLOK 700 has a unique clipping system which combines strength and agility to enable the sheet to expand and contract under normal conditions with no damage to the material whatever the length.
On-site cranking and bull-nosing facilities are also available.
SAFLOK 700 has undergone both local SABS testing and wind tunnel uplift testing in Australia. The results reflect that the system can withstand wind speeds of between 50 and 58 m/s depending on the material utilized.
