Installation
Fixing with a continuous line of adhesive mortar is preferred on blockwork, or alternatively a bed of render.
Non-corrosive mechanical fixings can be used as well but are not required. With external wall insulation, non-corrosive fixings alone are sufficient.
PVC-U beading is fast and easy to cut to length with tin snips or a fine toothed hacksaw and is safer to handle than cut metal.
Supplied in 2.5m lengths and in packs of 25.
