Polycarbonate Fixing Buttons

Polycarbonate Roof Sheet Fixing Buttons

Polycarbonate roof sheet fixing buttons provide a versatile solution for securing polycarbonate sheets to underlying structures. While not always essential, they are particularly useful for intermediate rafters where glazing bars aren’t used or on noggins to prevent sheets from rattling against rafters in windy conditions. Available in packs of 10, these fixing buttons come in white, brown, and anthracite grey and are compatible with sheet thicknesses of 10mm, 16mm, and 25mm.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Suitable for polycarbonate sheets with thicknesses of 10mm, 16mm, and 25mm.

Applications

• Intermediate rafters where glazing bars aren’t used.

Components

• Cover Cap: Protects the screw head and provides a tidy finish.

Installation Guidelines

1. Pre-Drilling: Drill 10mm sized holes in the polycarbonate sheet at the desired fixing points, ensuring alignment with the structure.
2. Positioning: Place the sealing washer over the hole, insert the screw through the cover cap, and into the washer.
3. Securing: Tighten the screw until the fixing button is snug against the sheet. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the sheet.
