The tool is designed to flatten the soft edge against the pan and side walls of the rib.<\/p>\n<p>When dressing down onto Corrugated profiles, just push down with the \u2018Work M8\u2019 until completely formed, resulting in a perfect fit.<\/p>\n<h4>AL Edge<\/h4>\n<p>Requires the use of a soft faced hammer, preferably convex shaped or a \u201cKnobal\u201d (placed on the hammer face) and preferably a single dressing down tap with such into place for corrugate and a tap into the pan on each side of rib on trapezoidal.<\/p>\n<p>Caution&#8211;Do not over dress material as aluminium tends to work harden and will spring back up if overworked so less dressing will generally give a more aesthetically pleasing result.<\/p>\n<h4>EZ Edge &amp; Vent Edge<\/h4>\n<p>Historically the use of your thumb or fingers is easy enough to dress down and still works.<br \/>\nRecently we have developed the \u2018EZ Work M8\u2019 tool which has been specifically designed to dress our soft edge easily without damage or overstretching and tearing of perforations or rubber backing.<\/p>\n<p>This use of the \u201cEZ Work M8\u201d is preferable on Ez Edge and recommended on Vent Edge to allow the perforations to open evenly during the dressing process and allow the maximum ventilation possible without tearing the material.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"compatibility\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Compatibility<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The grade of Aluminium of our Soft Edging is compatible with Galvanised, Zincalume, Zinc, ZAM, and Aluminium roofing and cladding.<\/p>\n<p>The Polyisobutylene material also compatible with the above mentioned materials and is manufactured from low carbon black materials and is non-conductive as required.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"maintenance\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Maintenance<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Natural rain wash is normally sufficient to remove most contaminants or salt spray &amp; dust.
