Dekfast Poly Washers
What are Dekfast poly washers? Dekfast poly washers are durable molded polymer washers made for roofing systems, sealing and spreading load in metal-to-wood and metal-to-metal panel installations. At 19mm, they suit almost any #12 screw and are commonly used with polycarbonate skylight and sidelight panels, allowing for thermal movement.
What is a Dekfast poly washer used for?
Dekfast poly washers are a roofing-system component from the DEKS line, providing sealing and holding strength for metal-to-wood and metal-to-metal panel fastening. The molded polymer body spreads the screw's load across the panel and helps seal the fixing point, and the 19mm diameter is sized to allow pre-drilling and let polycarbonate skylight and sidelight panels move with thermal expansion, which prevents cracking around the fastener. They pair with almost any #12 roofing screw. A quality washer is central to a long-lasting roof, so match the Dekfast washer to your fastener and follow the panel manufacturer's fixing instructions for best results.
