Exolon® Multi UV 5M

1 of 21 products in this brand
Exolon® multi UV 5M/25-20 is a polycarbonate sheet of 25 mm thickness, with a M-structure for enhanced stiffness. It combines good load bearing properties, good thermal insulation, light transmission and excellent weather resistance. The sheet is lightweight, impact resistant and easy to install. The sheets are produced with a coextruded UV-protective layer, which is homogeneously fused with the sheet material. This UV-protected side must be installed facing upwards/outwards. It provides Exolon® multi UV with a highly effective protection against weathering, guaranteed for 10 years.

Technical Details & Test Data

Technical Details

When using Exolon® multi UV 5M/25-20 in roof or wall installations, the forces exerted by snow and wind loads must be absorbed by a suitable substructure. We recommend implementing the support distance indicated in the diagram for the respective loads.

The diagram shows the load bearing capacity for Exolon® multi UV 5M/25-20 (supported on all sides, rebate depth ≥ 20 mm) with a standard profile on the longitudinal sides. The loadbearing curves enable the user to calculate the actual loadbearing characteristics of the multi-wall sheets in their support construction. If the rebate depth is smaller, the support distances should be reduced in accordance with the relevant load. For wind forces alone, the loads are permitted to be multiplied by 1.1.

Load bearing characteristics (determination): The component resistance (limit state of load bearing capacity) of Exolon® multi UV 5M/25-20 has been calculated by using test reports on similar products. These values are reference values, adequate safety margins must be observed in addition to these values. The margins are to be assessed on a case-by case-basis.

In general, experience has proven that a safety factor of 1.3 is adequate with regard to the measured resistance values. This safety factor is included in the load tables and diagram. These specifications do not replace national regulations, such as building inspectorate approval in Germany (DIBt), Avis Techniques in France, etc.
