Applications

 

DURATEX’S tough low gloss, lightly textured finish makes it the perfect choice for demanding applications. DuraTex’s brighter white provides an excellent complement to vinyl sidings and windows.

ALSCO DURATEX Aluminum Trim Coil is designed for residential and light commercial applications. Trim coil can be field-formed to provide low-maintenance coverings for exterior trim surfaces such as window and door casings, window sills, drip caps, fascias, porch posts, louvers, flashings, etc. Trim sheet shall be attached with color-matched stainless steel or aluminum trim nails.

 

 

Applications Considerations

 

Direct contact of aluminum product(s) with certain dissimilar materials or contact with the water run-off from such materials is likely to result in corrosion, which is not covered by the product warranty. Therefore, care should be exercised to avoid contact of aluminum with any corrosive materials during installation including, but not limited to: pretreated lumber, concrete, masonry cement, stucco, salt, corrosive chemicals, dissimilar metals (copper, zinc, steel, etc.), and roofing systems made with metallic granules of such dissimilar metals.
