Benefits

The SSQ275 NewLock Panel profile fits into existing and new SSQ and SSQ II roof panel machines. The New Tech Machinery SSQ II is our best-selling, most versatile portable roof panel machine. User-friendly profile changeovers can be completed in 45 minutes or less with one wrench and no tape measuring required. The SSQ II roof panel machine is capable of running 15 different profiles.

When seamed in a single-lock configuration, this unique interlocking panel profile system is as strong, or stronger, than many of the double-lock systems in the industry.
