The UV Enhanced polycarbonate dome and 16mm 5 layer multi-wall polycarbonate configuration provide the benefits of blast and bomb protection and energy efficiency without limiting light transmission.
Average peak reflected pressure = 6.97 psi with a 40 psi-msec average positive phase impulse allows a NO HAZARD rating and level of protection that meets or exceeds the protection required for military installations and high risk projects from embassies to government buildings worldwide.

- Single Wall Self-Flashing comes fully assembled and is available with an optional exposed 2X4 wood nailer to provide a solid termination point for the roof membrane or termination bar but also provides proper fastener anchoring per our product testing. The curb(s) are able to be shipped separately (loose) for installation prior to the skylight portion. Installing the curbs prior to the curb mount portion provides protection of the finished skylight and glazing during the roofing installation process and minimizes jobsite damage to the finished skylight. An optional addition of 1.5” polyisocyanurate insulation can be added and is adhered to the exterior wall but is left exposed to be covered by the roof membrane at time of installation.
- Insulated Self-Flashing with (Maxim(um) Insulated Curb is a 1.75” thick curb wall with a concealed 2X4 and 1.5” polyisocyanurate insulation between aluminum inner and outer walls. This option allows for the skylight to be shipped fully assembled or with the curb(s) shipped separately (loose) for installation prior to the skylight portion. Installing the curbs prior to the curb mount portion provides protection of the finished skylight and glazing during the roofing installation process and minimizes jobsite damage to the finished skylight. Maxim offers stainless steel fasteners and sealants upon request to make this a simple process.
