Product Information

Full details

The PolyX Rafter Bar End Bar is designed for contractors and DIY enthusiasts installing polycarbonate roofing systems who need a clean, structural finish for exposed edges. Its primary benefit is the integrated adjustable adaptor that eliminates the need for extra F-sections or closers, simplifying the installation process significantly. However, users should note that the system requires careful alignment of the snap cap to ensure a secure, weather-tight seal during the final assembly stage.

FAQs

Can I use this with 10mm sheets?

No, the PolyX Rafter Bar is specifically designed for sheet thicknesses between 16mm and 35mm.

Does this require a separate F-section?

No, the bar features an integrated adjustable adaptor that replaces the need for a separate F-section.

How long is the maximum span supported?

The bar is capable of supporting spans up to 6 metres.

Is this bar weather-resistant?

Yes, it is designed for exterior use with high-quality seals to prevent water ingress.

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic tools such as a drill for fixing the base and a rubber mallet for helping the snap cap seat if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Snap cap is difficult to engage

Check that the sheet is fully seated on the gasket and that no debris is obstructing the locking channel.

Visible gaps between cap and base

Ensure the thickness of the polycarbonate sheet is within the 16mm-35mm range and that the base is correctly fixed to the rafter.
