Important pre installation guidelines
Very Important information
For successful installation of Dotmar® Uniboard the following guidelines must be adhered to.
Thermal Expansion
Like all thermoplastics, the coefficient of linear thermal expansion is higher than most metals and timber at 2×10-4. That translates to 2mm per metre for every 10°Celcius increase or decrease in temperature. There may be some situations where this may need to be taken into consideration. If sufficient allowance is not made in these circumstances, Product bending and bowing may result and will void any supplier warranty.
It is highly recommended that you discuss your individual application with the Dotmar representative you purchased your product from and ask him or her to recommend to you the best possible installation method and fixture type after viewing the application.
Please Note: Dotmar EPP is a supplier of plastic material products and the information above should act as a guide only. Decisions made on what should be the best fixing method or fasteners to be used lay solely the responsibility of the Company providing the Installation or the individual installer. The Dotmar Product range must be installed within the guidelines of the product supplier’s technical specifications.
