Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct size of T barb edging trim for my panels?
Match the key dimensions of the trim to your panel and groove sizes. The first dimension generally corresponds to the visible width of the convex top, while the smaller dimensions relate to the barb and stem that fit into the groove. Measure your panel thickness and groove size carefully and select the closest matching option from the available sizes to ensure a secure fit.
Can this PVC edging trim be cut to length on site?
Yes, the rigid PVC trim can be easily cut to the required length using basic tools such as a fine-toothed saw or heavy-duty shears. It is supplied in a 75m length, allowing you to cut multiple pieces as needed for your installation while minimising waste.
Is the edging trim suitable for use in damp or regularly cleaned environments?
The rigid PVC material offers good resistance to moisture and can be wiped clean with mild detergents, making it suitable for many damp or regularly cleaned areas. However, it should not be considered a substitute for fully waterproof or chemical-resistant systems, so always check suitability against your specific environmental and cleaning requirements.
