How can the T8 profile be used on façades, soffits and light cladding?
T8 is useful where the steel sheet is to form a light, discreet cladding. The low rib height suits soffits and small façades. However, the panel layout must be matched to the openings, and ventilation and water drainage must be planned. The designation T8 alone is not enough to establish the sheet dimensions, the purlin spacing or the fixing method. In the selected example the profile is 8 mm high, 1156 mm effective width and 1220 mm overall width. It is available in several steel thicknesses. The dimensions of other products sold under the T8 designation may differ. The order should therefore specify the particular section, not just the group name.
