8 & 16mm Polycarbonate Panel Fabrication: For Pop-On Panels - See Fab Photos
** For Light to Medium Duty Applications **
-Cut polycarbonate sheet to required size.
-Do appropriate measurements and angle cut U-Profile so neat miter joint created at corners. Best to have the inside base of U-Profile snugged up tight against the sheet. This will create a more rigid panel, plus a tight and strong miter joint.
-Starting about 1" from the corners, place 3/8" self-drilling screws through the short leg of the U-Profile and into the polycarbonate sheet. Screws are provided free with U-Profile. Screw will easily move though U-Profile and penetrate into polycarbonate, creating a tight fit. Continue placing screws about every 12" along the extrusion. Repeat for all U-Profiles.
-Pop-On Panel Installation:
-Drill 1/16" weep holes in bottom edge of the lower U-Profile for moisture release.
-Position panel so framing members are behind long leg of U-Profile. Begin securing panel to frame by placing clips close to corners & every 12" on-center. Clips required along top, bottom and sides of panel as shown below. Once you have set the clips you are done with that panel.
-When using 48" wide sheets space framing (where sheets meet) a minimum of 48-1/2" on-center. This will allow sufficient room for clips (if clips are offset).
Note: Screws thread into clips. Install with a screw gun or portable drill with phillips bit. Panel, with proper Mid-Sheet Fastening offers resistance to movement by medium strength winds. Not meant for high wind or hurricane zones.
