Green-tek Foam Closure Strip - 3ft - Vertical Profile - For Corrugated Sheets

Green-tek Foam Closure Strip - 3ft - Vertical Profile - For Corrugated Sheets

Green-tek Foam Closure Strips are designed for use with corrugated greenhouse and building panels to improve sealing and structural stability at connection points. These foam strips fill the gaps between corrugated panels and structural members at ridges, eaves, and purlins - preventing moisture, dust, and pests from entering through the corrugation voids. The vertical profile matches the corrugation pattern of standard corrugated polycarbonate sheets including DynaGlas and similar profiles.

Key Features & Benefits

• Corrugation gap filling: Foam conforms to the corrugation profile to fill voids between the panel and structural members - creating a weather-resistant seal at ridges, eaves, and lateral connections.
• Vertical profile: Matches the corrugation pattern of standard corrugated greenhouse panels for a precise, gap-free fit.
• Pest exclusion: Sealed corrugation gaps prevent insects, rodents, and birds from entering the structure through the panel-to-frame gaps.
• Moisture protection: Foam seal reduces wind-driven rain and condensate intrusion at structural connection points.
• 3ft length: Standard section length for efficient installation across greenhouse structural members.

Who Should Use This

Required for all installations of Green-tek DynaGlas and other corrugated polycarbonate panels where panels connect to ridge caps, eave boards, purlins, or other structural members. Foam closure strips are a necessary component of a complete, professional-quality corrugated panel installation.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Green-tek DynaGlas corrugated polycarbonate and similar corrugated panel profiles. Available in vertical (for most ridge and eave connections) and horizontal profiles to suit different corrugation orientations and connection types.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between vertical and horizontal closure strips?

Vertical closure strips have foam profile ridges that run parallel to the corrugation channels - these are used at the ends of panels (ridge and eave connections) where the corrugations are exposed. Horizontal closure strips have ridges running perpendicular to the corrugations - used at side laps and purlin connections where panels overlap or bear on structural members.

How are foam closure strips attached to the panels?

Foam closure strips are typically self-adhesive on one side, allowing them to be pressed directly onto the corrugated panel surface at the connection point. The strip is then compressed between the panel and the structural member when fasteners are tightened, creating the weather-resistant seal.

How many closure strips do I need for a greenhouse installation?

You will need closure strips at every structural connection where a corrugated panel meets a ridge cap, eave board, or purlin - typically at the top and bottom of each panel. Calculate the total linear footage of panel-to-structure connections in your design and divide by the 3ft strip length to determine the quantity needed.

Can foam closure strips be cut to length?

Yes. Foam closure strips can be cut with scissors or a utility knife to fit custom lengths at corners, transitions, and partial panel installations.
