Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PVC flat bar strip used for?
PVC flat bar strips are used for edge finishing, covering joints, protecting surfaces and general trim work in construction, DIY and signage applications. They provide a clean, flat plastic surface that can be glued, screwed or nailed in place.
