How much slope does this clear polycarbonate roofing sheet need?

For drainage purpose, our pergola flat roof should have a minimum incline of 5 degrees, which is equivalent to 8.8% slope. This translates to a drop of at least 88mm for every meter of horizontal sheet run.

How much Rafter spacing do you need for this clear roofing sheet?

When installing Excelite Clear plastic roofing, you have two options: either using rafters or battens for fixing.

On to Rafters

If you choose rafters only, we recommend rafters spacing at 600-700mm centers, which eliminates the need for battens. And you'll attach the Aluminium joiners directly onto the rafters, keeping them hidden from view. We recommend contact us before you proceed with rafter installation.

If your structure is already constructed and the rafters are improperly spaced, you have two options: you can either insert purlins to bridge the gap or trim the sheets to match the rafter centers.

On to Battens

If your structure is designed with battens, you can go with wider spacing roofing sheets, like 800mm to 1000mm wide polycarbonate.

How to Cut polycarbonate flat sheet?

We can cut to size for you free of charge for pergola roof panels. You can also cut the plastic roll by circular saw (Fine teeth blade), or jigsaw.  Remember to allow for some overhang in the length to ensure that water from the sheet will fall into the gutter, also allows 2mm in the width for expansion between the Glazing bar.

Choosing The Right Roofing Sheet

Polycarbonate roofing sheets are available in various types, each offering distinct benefits and characteristics. Understanding the differences between these sheets can help you choose the most suitable option for your roofing project. In this section, we compare clear polycarbonate roofing sheets with other popular types such as tinted, frosted, and multiwall polycarbonate sheets.

• Clear Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets: Clear polycarbonate roofing sheets offer high light transmission, UV protection, and excellent impact resistance. These sheets are ideal for applications where maximum transparency and natural light are essential, such as greenhouses, sunrooms, and patios.
• Tinted Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets: Tinted polycarbonate roofing sheets provide a similar level of impact resistance and UV protection as clear sheets while adding the benefit of reduced glare and heat transmission. The tinted sheets offer solar control by reducing the amount of sunlight and heat that passes through, making them ideal for roofing areas where some shading or privacy is desired without sacrificing durability.
• Frosted Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets: Frosted polycarbonate sheets offer a unique combination of strength, impact resistance, and light diffusion. Their textured surface diffuses light, creating a soft, even glow without glare. The frosted finish also provides a level of privacy while still allowing natural light to pass through. These sheets are suitable for applications that require a balance of privacy, light transmission, and durability, such as decorative partitions, skylights, and roofing solutions where a subtle, diffused light effect is desired.

Multiwall Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets: Multiwall polycarbonate sheets consist of multiple layers, providing exceptional thermal insulation and enhanced rigidity. These sheets maintain high impact resistance and UV protection while offering improved energy efficiency due to their insulating properties. They also contribute to noise reduction, making them suitable for roofing solutions in areas where noise control is a concern.
