Trim Coil


I have always just used the standard .019 trim coil.
I did not until recently know my supplier Norandex also has a .022 and a .024
Thinking of switching to the .024
Any comments.
Thanks

Re: Trim Coil


Dont have to order and is a stock item.
They carry .019, .022 and .024
Have not checked the price but think I will go ahead and switch to the .024

Re: Trim Coil


10$ More, I know the cheap A$$es around here would never go for it. LoL But seriously it probably makes for a better, stronger job.

Re: Trim Coil


I have been seeing alot more of a product called "Quality Edge" it is supposed to have a "no-mar" finish or protect that protects the coil from getting marked up when you bend it and hem it or do whatever you are going to do with it. I like the idea of thinker aluminum tho - imo
