WPC installation fasteners.—-Simply put, it is a connector specially designed to fix WPC wall panels or decking flooring.During the installation process, this fastener plays a vital role, not only ensuring the stability of the wall cladding or decking floor, but also greatly affecting the aesthetics of the entire project.Therefore, choosing the right fastener is a key step to ensure the quality of the project.
In the installation of WPC decking or wall Panel, we usually use stainless steel fasteners or PP fasteners for fixing.
In the specific operation, first use a drill with a smaller diameter to make a small hole in the nailing part of the wood plastic, and then use the corresponding screws to fix the fastener to the keel.
Regarding the Clips of wpc decking. they also play a very important role.
In the installation of WPC decking, the correct selection and quality of the fasteners directly affect the flatness and stability of the deck floor.
Common WPC decking fasteners on the market have a variety of models and specifications, which can be selected according to actual needs.
Some high-quality fasteners even have the characteristics of waterproof, moisture-proof, and anti-aging, which further improves the service life and performance of the floor.
Stainless steel fasteners are suitable for outdoor or humid environment installation of WPC DECKING due to their strong corrosion resistance; plastic fasteners are light and low cost, but may be slightly inferior in terms of load-bearing and durability. The type of fastener you choose depends on your specific needs and usage environment.
We need to realize that all materials will expand and contract with temperature changes.
WPC decks are no exception, and their coefficient of thermal expansion is usually between 0.3% and 0.5%.
This means that the deck will expand in the sun or when the temperature rises, and shrink slightly at night or when the temperature drops.
If there is no reserved gap between the fasteners, this natural physical phenomenon will cause squeezing between the decks, which will cause deformation, cracking and even damage, seriously affecting the service life and appearance of the floor.
So when choosing fasteners of wpc decking, you should also consider the local climate and choose the right Clips.
The clearance design of stainless steel fasteners is generally 1mm or 3mm, while the clearance design of plastic fasteners is mostly 3mm or 5mm.
The fasteners are installed on the keels through screws. The optimal distance between the keel centers should be controlled between 310-410mm, which can ensure sufficient support and facilitate drainage and air circulation.
The joints between the keels should be properly spaced to accommodate the physical changes of thermal expansion and contraction.
According to the difference in structural design, WPC fasteners are also divided into different types such as dovetail injection fasteners and square fasteners.
Each type of fastener has its specific application scenarios and functions.
For example, dovetail injection fasteners can better adapt to the slight expansion and contraction of wpc flooring under temperature and humidity changes due to their unique tail design, and maintain the overall stability of the decking; while square fasteners are particularly suitable for occasions with heavy loads due to their sturdy structure.
The products produced by WPC materials are mainly used in floors, garden pavilions, tree pools, Bridges, gallery frames, wood plastic profiles, outdoor floors, guardrail, fence, plank road, dock.In the installation, usually need to use plastic fasteners.
