Full details
The Wetwall Splashwall H-Shaped Panel Straight Joint is an essential accessory for professional and DIY bathroom installers looking to create a seamless, waterproof transition between two in-line wall panels. Designed specifically for 4mm panel systems, this H-shaped connector ensures a clean aesthetic while reinforcing the structural integrity of your shower or wet room splashwall. While it provides an excellent professional finish, users should ensure their wall surfaces are perfectly level before installation to prevent potential gaps or alignment issues.

FAQs
Can I use this joint for corner installations?
No, this is a straight joint for in-line panel connections. You will need a specific corner trim for 90-degree bends.
Is this product waterproof?
The material itself is water-resistant PVC; however, we recommend using a bathroom-grade silicone sealant within the joint to ensure a completely watertight seal.
What tools do I need to cut the joint?
A standard fine-tooth hacksaw or a miter saw with a plastic-cutting blade works best.
Does this joint come in different colors?
The Wetwall H-Joint is designed to provide a neutral, professional finish compatible with most panel designs.
Can I use this for non-Wetwall brand panels?
This joint is designed for 4mm panels. If your non-Wetwall panels are exactly 4mm, it may fit, but compatibility is only guaranteed with Wetwall products.
Troubleshooting
The panel does not fit into the H-Joint groove
Verify that the panel edge is free from burrs or excess glue, and ensure the panel is exactly 4mm thick.
The joint feels loose after installation
Ensure that your wall substrate is flat; a bowed wall will pull the joint away from the panel. Secure with a small bead of silicone if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Steps
- Measure the height of your installation area and cut the H-Joint to the corresponding length using a fine-tooth hacksaw.
- Ensure both wall panels are cut square and edges are free of debris.
- Apply a small amount of recommended silicone sealant into the grooves of the H-Joint.
- Slide the joint onto the edge of the first installed panel.
- Align the second panel and slide it into the remaining groove of the joint until flush.
Compatibility
- Compatible exclusively with 4mm thick Wetwall panels.
- Not designed for use with panels exceeding 4mm thickness.
Care
- Clean regularly with a soft, non-abrasive cloth and mild soapy water to prevent soap scum buildup.
- Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, which can scratch the PVC surface.
