Fixings
Things to note
- During temperature changes through the day and night, laserlite polycarbonate will expand and contract. When fixing the polycarbonate sheeting to a structure it is important that you allow for this ‘movement’ in the sheet. This can be done by pre-drilling a 10 mm (oversized) hole in the sheet for the screws to go through. Laserlite ONE SHOT screws have a cutter on every screw which means that it takes no extra time to install them. One Shot screws also come with a washer that suits polycarbonate ensuring that you have a watertight seal.
- Silicones are not recommended for Polycarbonate sheeting.
- As a rule of thumb you will need 7 screws per lineal metre of sheeting.
- Always ensure that the inkjet markings on the sheet are facing the sun – this is the side with the protective UV layer on the sheet, which stops the sheet from breaking down prematurely due to the effects of harmful UV.
- Sheets can be cut to length free of charge before dispatch, otherwise a fine tooth circular saw can be used.
