Installation Guidelines
Measure and mark the required length before cutting the aluminium flat bar. Use an appropriate metal-cutting tool to achieve a clean and accurate cut.
Remove any sharp edges or burrs after cutting. Position the flat bar correctly and secure it using suitable screws, rivets, bolts, or compatible adhesive depending on the mounting surface and intended application.
Ensure the profile is straight and correctly aligned before permanently fastening it into position.
Care and Maintenance
Clean the aluminium surface using a soft cloth, mild detergent, and water when required. Avoid abrasive cleaning products that could scratch the surface.
Where the flat bar is mechanically fastened, periodically inspect the installation to ensure all fixings remain secure.
