Edge Trim for Sunwood Snap-Tight Glazing Bars

Fitting the Sunwood Edge Trims

With the glazing bar Top Cap removed, ensure that the rubber gasket strip is only fitted to the side holding polycarbonate roof sheet and not the open side. The rail, on the underside of the Edge Trims botton lip, should be clipped into the track which the rubber gasket would normally be fitted. This is enough to ensure that the edge trim stays secure and provides a surface for the top capping.

End Closure for 10mm Polycarbonate Sheets (White, Brown or Anthracite Grey) Seal and protect the ends of your polycarbonate sheets Also known as "U" Drips, Poly End Covers and End Profile Trims, these End Closures are designed to protect ends and form a tight seal to the top of polycarbonate sheeting. End closures are typically fitted to the gutter-end of pitched roofs, such as those of a conservatory, or to both ends of a free-standing roof. Provide decorative protection to the vulnerable ends of polycarbonate sheeting. Features & Benefits Seals open end of polycarbonate sheet Helps prevent dust and insects entering the sheet Protects vented anti-dust breather tape Drip design prevents water from being blown back towards the roof Drainage holes reduce condensation and moisture IMPORTANT SIZE INFORMATION These end closures are designed to fit 10mm thick sheets, and are supplied in 2.1m lengths for white and brown, and 2.5m length for anthracite grey. Extend the life of your roof With three sides protected by glazing bars and ridge capping, the gutter end is often the only edge of polycarbonate sheets that are exposed. When left exposed, the breather tape that is applied to the open fluted ends of the sheets become wet and deteriorate. This leads to failure of the tape and the sheets flutes suffering condensation, algae build-up and insect penetration. Fitting End Closures helps stop this from happening. These End Closures are designed with a 3mm 'drip' on the front edge, to stop water running back towards the roofing material.
