Aluminium 10mm F Section Edge Trim 6.0m

The Aluminium 10mm F Section is a professional grade edge trim for polycarbonate roofing and glazing systems. Supplied in a 6.0m length, it terminates the edges of Sunlite 10mm twinwall, Sunpal 10mm panels and EZ Glaze sheets, giving the roof a clean architectural line where the sheets finish at a gable, a wall or an open edge.

The F section is an extruded aluminium profile with an F shaped cross section. It slips over the cut edge of the sheet, sealing the open flutes or corrugations and providing a drip face that directs rainwater away from the roof edge. That stops water, dust and insects getting into the open sheet ends, which is where a lot of polycarbonate roofs fail over time.

Aluminium is the right material for this trim because it stays straight and stable across extreme temperature changes. A plastic trim can warp or discolour, but extruded aluminium keeps the roofline sharp and needs no painting. It is the sort of detail that lifts a DIY install to a commercial standard finish.

Applications

• Finishing the gable end of a polycarbonate roof
• Terminating sheets at a wall abutment
• Sealing the open edges of twinwall and solid sheets

What You Need To Complete The Job

When the F section is used to finish EZ Glaze sheets, pair it with the EZ Glaze gasket so the seal against the sheet edge is complete. The rest of the EZ Glaze system, including the ridge cap and wall flashing, is in the EZ Glaze category. The wider range of sheets and accessories sits under Polycarbonate Roofing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an F section used for?

It is an edge trim that slips over the cut end of a polycarbonate sheet. It seals the open flutes or corrugations, provides a drip face to manage water runoff, and gives the roof edge a clean, straight finish.

Which sheets does it fit?

It is designed for 10mm sheets including Sunlite 10mm twinwall and Sunpal 10mm panels, and it is also used with EZ Glaze sheets when paired with the appropriate gasket. Match the trim to the sheet thickness you are installing.

Do I need the gasket with the F section?

For EZ Glaze sheets, yes. The gasket finishes the cut 3mm sheet edge inside the 10mm F section and completes the seal. For 10mm twinwall sheets, the F section itself seals the open flutes.

Can the 6.0m length be cut to fit?

Yes. The aluminium profile is easy to cut on site with a hacksaw or a metal-cutting disc. Measure your edge run and cut the section to length, allowing for any joiners or internal corners.

Why aluminium instead of plastic trim?

Aluminium stays straight and rigid across temperature changes, resists UV degradation and does not warp or discolour the way plastic trims can. It also gives a cleaner architectural finish that matches the rest of the roof hardware.
