Frequently Asked Questions

What does a first-stage hand seamer do?

A first-stage hand seamer bends the top leg of a standing seam panel to approximately 90°, preparing it for the second-stage seam or final closing. It’s the first step in double-lock or mechanically seamed roof installations.

How do I choose the correct size?

Select the seamer size that matches the seam width of your metal roofing panel. Measure the width of the male leg (top of the seam) to ensure a proper fit. Common sizes include 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", and more.

What’s the difference between ESE 001 and ESE 001C?

Both are 1/2" seamers, but the 001C version is designed for use on curved panels, such as radius or arched metal roofing. The 001 is for straight panel runs.

Can this tool be used on painted panels?

Yes. The ESE hand seamers are designed with care to minimize scratching or marring painted metal panels. However, always ensure the tool is clean and used correctly to avoid damage.

Is this compatible with all standing seam panels?

These seamers are compatible with most single- or double-lock standing seam panels that match the selected seam size. Check your panel profile and seam width before ordering.
