Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Two Part Edge Trim (FC301E3CLB) is designed for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts working with 170mm weatherboard cladding systems. Its primary benefit is the innovative two-piece design, which allows for precise board placement in confined spaces, significantly reducing installation frustration. A key caveat to note is that this trim is specifically engineered for 170mm systems, so it may not be compatible with thicker or thinner cladding profiles.

FAQs

Can I use this trim with 150mm cladding?

No, this trim is specifically designed for 170mm weatherboard cladding systems and will not fit other sizes properly.

What is the length of each trim piece?

Each trim piece is 3 metres in length.

Is the finish UV resistant?

Yes, Freefoam components are designed for outdoor use and include weather-resistant properties to maintain the Colonial Blue color over time.

Can the trim be painted?

It is recommended to use the trim in its original finish, as painting may interfere with the snap-fit mechanism and the manufacturer's warranty.

How do I cut the trim to size?

The trim can be cut easily using a fine-toothed handsaw or a power saw with a blade suitable for PVC materials.

Troubleshooting

The top trim piece will not snap into the base

Check that the rear base section is not obstructed by excess cladding or debris, and ensure the base section was installed completely flat against the wall.

Visible gaps between trim and cladding

Verify that your cladding boards are cut to the correct length and are fully seated within the channel of the rear base plate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly easier installation in tight corners
  • High-quality, weather-resistant material
  • Provides a clean, professional-looking edge finish
  • Easy to cut and handle for custom configurations

Cons

  • Not compatible with cladding profiles outside the 170mm range
  • Requires precise alignment of the base section for the top part to snap correctly
  • 3-metre length may require careful planning for shipping or transport

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your base substrate is level. Fix the rear component of the trim using appropriate corrosion-resistant fasteners spaced at regular intervals. Once the cladding boards are positioned and secured to the wall, align the snap-fit top trim and apply firm, even pressure along the length until it clicks into the base. For maintenance, simply wipe down the trim with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to remove dust or debris. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could damage the Colonial Blue finish.
