The UNIVERSE^® 2000R "rainscreen" is our most popular, versatile, and cost-effective rainscreen MCM system.

The unique ball attachment method allows non-progressive installation and individual panel removability without disturbing adjacent panels and without impacting system integrity.

The panel is able to thermally expand and contract by rotating around the extrusion ball.

Pressure-equalization is achieved through ventiliation slots/holes on the sill return leg.

An air and moisture barrier applied over sheathing is required and serves as the weather barrier.

Joint width options are 5/8" and 3/4" and joint consistency is enforced to ensure fit and finish.

The aluminum retainer can be painted to a desired color.  Small quanitities of custom colors may be a premium.

Fully tested to current code requirements including AAMA 501.1-83, ASTM E283 (@ 6.24 psf), ASTM E330 (@ 15 psf), and ASTM E331 (@ 60 psf)
