Things to note

  • As the temperature changes polycarbonate will expand and contract. It is important to allow for the sheet to ‘move’ as this process occurs – otherwise the sheet can become damaged.
    • This can be done be pre-drilling a 10 mm oversized hole in the sheet for the screws to go through.  Alternatively, Suntuf CLEARFIX or POLYMATE screws have a cutter on every screw which means that it takes no extra time to install them.
    • It is also important not to over tighten the screw and deform the sheet profile.
  • When estimating how many screws you will need – 7 screws per lineal metre of sheeting is a good guide.
  • Polycarbonate is generally not compatible with silicone – talk to us about other options.
  • Always ensure that the sheets are installed with the correct side facing up, this 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.
