Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Two Part Edge Trim is an ideal solution for contractors and DIY enthusiasts installing 170mm weatherboard cladding who need a reliable, professional finish. Its standout benefit is the modular two-part design, which removes the frustration of sliding boards into rigid channels in confined or difficult areas. While it significantly streamlines the installation process, users must ensure the rear section is perfectly leveled during the initial fix to ensure the top snap-on piece aligns correctly.

FAQs

What cladding size is this trim designed for?

This trim is specifically designed for 170mm weatherboard cladding systems.

How long is the trim?

Each piece is 3 metres in length.

Can I use this for non-Freefoam cladding?

It is engineered for the Freefoam weatherboard range; compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.

Does the trim require adhesive?

No, it features a snap-on mechanism designed to lock securely into the base profile without needing extra adhesive.

Is the Sand finish UV stable?

Yes, as part of the professional range, these trims are designed for exterior use with high durability against the elements.

What is the benefit of the two-part design?

It allows you to fix the base first and snap the decorative cover on later, avoiding the need to slide boards into a tight channel.

Troubleshooting

The top trim does not snap on fully

Ensure that the cladding boards are not protruding too far into the channel area or check that the base profile is mounted level.

Gap between the trim and the board

Verify that you are using the correct 170mm weatherboard system and that the base profile is firmly fixed to the support battens.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly faster installation in tight spaces
  • Snap-on mechanism ensures a secure and clean fit
  • Compatible with standard 170mm weatherboard systems
  • Provides a high-quality professional appearance
  • Easier handling than traditional rigid channel trims

Cons

  • Requires precise alignment of the rear section during installation
  • Limited to 170mm cladding systems
  • Color matching is specific to the Sand finish range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, first measure and fix the rear section of the trim securely to the batten frame. Ensure this base is plumb or level, as any deviation will affect the ability of the top trim to snap into place. Once the base is fixed, install your 170mm weatherboard cladding boards. Finally, align the top profile with the base and apply light pressure to snap it into position along the full 3-metre length. For care, simply wipe down with a mild detergent and water as needed to maintain the Sand finish appearance.
