Features & Benefits
-
Color Identification: The green color allows for fast size recognition and reduces selection errors.
-
Load Stability: Rigid polypropylene provides stable support under frame screw clamping without crushing.
-
Moisture and Rot Resistance: Non-absorbent plastic prevents swelling, rotting, or corrosion in wet conditions.
-
Clean Seating: Smooth, burr-free faces ensure reliable load spreading beneath frame fixings.
-
Stackable Use: Uniform geometry allows stacking with other packers for precise builds.
-
Substrate Compatibility: Safe for use with timber, masonry, concrete, and metal frames; electrically non-conductive.
Applications
-
Window Frame Setting: Establish plumb, level, and square before fixing.
-
Door Frame Installation: Shim hinge and strike sides for precise reveals.
-
Partitioning and Stud Work: Pack track and studs to true lines prior to boarding.
-
Joinery and Cabinetry: Fine adjustment under sills, casings, and carcasses.
-
Cladding and Battening: Space battens off substrates for drainage paths.
Installation Guidance
-
Select Thickness: Choose packers to match the required gap and build by stacking if needed.
-
Place for Support: Position directly under frame load points and at fixings to spread pressure.
-
Fix without Distortion: Tighten screws to secure while avoiding excessive compression.
-
Verify Alignment: Check level, plumb, and diagonals; adjust with additional packers as required.
-
Trim if Necessary: Flush-cut any protruding packer edges after final fixing.
