Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct size of T barb edging trim for my panel?
Match the main leg and barb dimensions of the trim as closely as possible to the thickness of your panel and the slot you intend to cut. The first dimension typically relates to the visible top width, while the remaining dimensions refer to the stem and barb parts that fit into the panel. Allow a small amount of interference so the barb grips securely without forcing the trim or damaging the board.
Can this rigid PVC edging trim be cut to shorter lengths on site?
Yes, the 3m lengths can be cut down easily using a fine-toothed saw, PVC cutters or a suitable hand tool. Measure and mark carefully, support the profile while cutting to avoid cracking, and lightly de-burr the cut ends if needed for a neat finish.
Is adhesive required to fix the T barb edging trim in place?
In many cases the T barb design provides sufficient mechanical grip in a correctly sized slot, so no adhesive is required. However, for high-traffic areas, heavily used furniture or where the slot fit is slightly loose, a compatible PVC or general-purpose construction adhesive may be used to provide additional security.
