metal header - 20 gauge metal laminated on EPS foam for header

IB Panels ® header system is built to be structurally sound as well as keeping our extreme R-factor. This type of header is our most common header system. We laminate 20 gauge metal onto EPS and then fasten it to OSB and 2x material. The OSB on the headers will be the same width as the R.O. (rough openings) of the window or door. The metal/foam case and 2x are 3" longer than the OSB to allow it to slide into the outside panels.
