Features & Benefits

  • Prevents uplift by wind
  • Allows natural expansion and contraction
  • Protects against water ingress at fixing
  • Complete collar with screw, screw cap cover and gasket
  • White or Chocolate Brown for Mahogany and Rosewood uPVC
  • 10mm, 16mm, 25mm and 35mm sheet options

Fitting Polycarbonate Sheet Fixing Buttons

Fixing button diagram Fixing button diagram

The following general pointers are offered to help you best fit the Polycarbonate Sheet Fixing Buttons:

  • Use a sharp steel drill bit instead of a wood one
  • Drill at least 40mm away from the edge
  • Drill between the ribs
  • Do not over-tighten the screw fixing and squash the sheets - as a guide the button should not touch the sheet
  • Using an 18mm drill bit will allow the sheet to move due to natural expansion and contraction
  • If using a large sheet the use of a perlin can be used.
  • Use to fix into perlins, noggins or rafters.

Part of Sunwood's high quality, maintenance-free Snap-Tight range of rafter bars. The extruded aluminium Base Bars feature a central recess with locking points into which the toothed legs of the PVC-u Cap are located and long-lasting EPDM rubber gaskets to cushion and form a weather-tight seal on the underside of the polycarbonate. The PVC-u Cap has coextruded seals that forms a sound, pressure seal on the top of the polycarbonate once the PVC-u Cap has been pressed firmly into position. Retro-fitted to existing timber roofs with 10, 16 or 25mm polycarbonate, the 25GB Rafter Main Bar and other Sunwood components can encase and seal problem leak areas while also breathing a new lease of life into the roof. Sunwood is equally effective on new installations too, offering an attractive, low-maintenance, long-life capping solution.

16mm Clear Polycarbonate Sheets
16mm Clear Polycarbonate Sheets Any size up to 2.1m x 6m (width x length) Lightweight, tough and thermally efficient roofing panels! Clear multi-wall polycarbonate permits high light transmission and provides greater heat build up. Clear polycarbonate keeps it bright and light - even on the darkest winter days. Good choice for colder spots and ideal for industrial and commercial greenhouses. 16mm polycarbonate sheets are great for carports, pergolas and greenhouses. For large applications, such as conservatories, a thicker 25mm or 35mm polycarbonate is recommended. Polycarbonate is a great insulator that also reduces condensation and diffuses light. It can also be more energy efficient than glass of a comparable thickness and up to 50% cheaper. Features & Benefits UV Resistance - minimises long-term yellowing High resistance to impact - resistance to breakage Super thermal efficiency - triplewall and fivewall Robust yet lightweight - fraction of glass weight Fire safety - Class 1 Spread of Flame Protection 10 year warranty - light transmission is guaranteed Technical Information Detail16mm ClearOpalBronze Weight 2.7 2.7 2.7 Light Transmission 74 63 32 U-value (W/m2K) 2.27 2.27 2.27 Sound Reduction (dB) 21 21 21 Solar Heat Gain Coefficient 0.78 0.69 0.53 * Weight is measured in (kg/m)
