NOTES ON PRODUCT HANDLING, STORAGE AND USE
Battens should be stored in a dry, flat area to ensure that the product is not distorted,scratched or damaged. Should moisture damage occur, the product should be separated and dried. Failing to do this could impair the life of the galvanised coating.
Battens should not be used in corrosive atmospheres or in contact with tanalised timber, copper products or chemically treated products (e.g. insulation)
If used in a roof situation, a thermal barrier should be used over the batten. Generally installation of the battens should not proceed until the building has been closed off. However the CB35 batten has pre-punched holes along the length that will allow draining of any moisture collected in the batten.
Special attention should be paid to all electrical wiring regulations .
PLEASE NOTE: Rollformers 2000 LTD strongly recomends the use of electrical strapping to earth across all steel batten on installation. This would prevent any possibility of the battens going live on contact with a power source.
