The FloPlast Cladding Centre Joint Trim is an essential component for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to create seamless, continuous lines when installing external cladding systems. Engineered to bridge two cladding panels, this trim provides a durable and clean aesthetic finish for exterior walls. While it offers excellent structural alignment and weather protection, users should note that its fixed 5-metre length may require strategic cutting to match specific wall heights or architectural requirements.

Use stainless steel, rust-proof cladding pins or screws to secure the trim to your timber battens.
Yes, it provides an alternative to butt-jointing, offering a more structured and intentional finish between panel segments.
Verify that you are using 150mm Shiplap or 100mm V-Joint compatible panels and check for any debris inside the trim channel.
Check that the supporting batten is level. Adjust the trim alignment before final fixing if the vertical plumb is off.
For optimal results, ensure the supporting framework or battens are perfectly vertical before securing the trim. Use appropriate corrosion-resistant fixings to attach the trim to your wooden batten structure. This product is specifically designed to house 150mm Shiplap and 100mm V-Joint cladding. Maintenance is minimal; however, it is recommended to clean the trim annually with a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove surface grime or pollutants. Avoid abrasive cleaners or sharp implements that may scratch the surface finish during the installation or cleaning process.
