Panel 15 is a composite panel made by laminating a textured aluminum skin to a substrate of douglas fir exterior grade plywood. A fiberglass reinforced kraft/foil scrim backer is added for panel balance and acts as a moisture barrier. These panels are ideal for applications such as; claddings, canopies, fascia, accent bands, and soffits. Panel 15 is also ideal for many other applications where durability, strength, and overall cost are primary concerns. For a non-progressive installation, the two piece extruded moldings may be used. Plastic receivers are first installed, then construction adhesive is placed in the field of the panel. The panels are then fastened around the perimeter and sealant is applied. the joints are completed with a snap-on aluminum cover. For a progressive installation, the one piece moldings are used. The extrusions are mechanically fastened to the substrate and the panels are then inserted and installed using sealant around the perimeter and construction adhesive in the field of the panel.
