Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cut the flexible PVC flat bar strips to the length I need?
The strips can be cut to length using standard hand tools such as a sharp utility knife, fine-tooth hacksaw or shears, depending on the thickness. Mark the required length, support the strip on a firm surface and cut squarely to achieve a clean edge.
What is the best way to fix these PVC flat bar strips in place?
Fixing method depends on the substrate and application. Common options include using a suitable contact or grab adhesive on clean, dry surfaces, or securing mechanically with small screws or pins where appearance allows. In some installations the strip may be pushed into a pre-formed channel or rebate for a friction fit.
Can these PVC flat bar strips be used outdoors?
The strips are primarily intended for indoor or sheltered locations. They may be used outdoors in covered or low-exposure areas, but prolonged direct UV and weather exposure may affect appearance and lifespan. For fully external, high-exposure applications, consider using them in protected positions or consult for more weather-resistant profile options.
