In which direction can polycarbonate sheet be bent?
The sheet may only be bent so that the curve of the bend runs parallel to the direction of the cells. Otherwise, the cells may become deformed and the UV protection may be damaged, which can significantly reduce the mechanical strength of the sheet.
Why can’t polycarbonate be installed perpendicular to the slope?
The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the cells, especially in the morning and evening, causes condensation to form inside the cells. The condensed water drains away by gravity if the cells run in the direction of the slope. If they don’t, persistent condensation and even algae growth can occur.
Is a support spacing of 1000 mm sufficient, or is closer support needed?
For 10 mm thick sheets, the manufacturer recommends supports every 700 mm, while for sheets 16 mm or thicker, 1000 mm is sufficient.
Can installation errors be the reason water or condensation gets into the cells?
It may indicate installation errors, such as missing end sealing tapes or unsuitable end profiles. Even with professional installation, some condensation may appear in the morning and evening, which is considered normal.
Is it true that multiwall polycarbonate sometimes creaks or pops?
This can happen with poor installation, for example due to a missing base profile, omitted expansion gaps or overtightened fixing screws. Careful installation prevents this.
In what sizes can polycarbonate be purchased?
The standard factory width of polycarbonate sheets is 2100 mm and the length is 7000 mm. We cut the sheets to size according to customer requirements.
Is a rubber gasket needed at every support point?
A rubber gasket must be used at every support where the polycarbonate sheet touches the supporting structure, unless there is an H-profile above it.
How can I tell which side of the polycarbonate is UV-protected?
10 and 16 mm sheets with an X6 structure are UV-protected on both sides. In other cases, the UV-protected side is marked on the protective film: 'this side out'.
