Liner Edge Protection
Duct liner edges need to be protected so airflow does not peel, erode, or carry fibers downstream.
Stop if
- This liner edge is exposed. Does the spec require nosing, adhesive, pins, or edge coating here?
Watch out
- Do not leave loose liner edges in the airstream. Do not rely on adhesive alone where mechanical fastening is required.
Check
- Liner edge treatment, adhesive, pins/washers, nosing where required, and manufacturer/spec detail.
Steps
- Liner edge treatment, adhesive, pins/washers, nosing where required, and manufacturer/spec detail.
