The new Fiberdeck® HERITAGE composite decking appears to perfectly imitate exotic wood. The pores of the wood are reproduced in every details. The surface of the board has irregularities that catch the light and dance. It is like an "adze", the ancestral tool used by carpenters to plane a piece of wood.
This board benefits from a new co-extruded coating that is very resistant to abrasion. The protective layer is hard and limits scratches. This layer is present on all 4 sides of the decking board.
Finally, this solid board is available in 3 multi-chromatic colours: Ocean gray, Indian Summer and Havana Brown to get as close as possible to a natural exotic decking.
Cobra Hybrid 8-18 clip installation
HERITAGE decking boards must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions using Cobra Hybrid 8-18 stainless steel clips. A bag of 90 clips fasteners is sufficient for about 5 m2 of deck.
These new dual-material clips help hold the stainless-steel screws in place during installation. This saves considerable time during installation. Moreover, the universal stainless-steel screws are self-drilling in softwoods, exotic woods and aluminium joists.
Boards fastened using Cobra Hybrid 8-18 clips can be easily removed without disassembling the entire deck.
Joist gaps (centre-to-centre distance) are at most 40 cm for HERITAGE boards. Applying a joist barrier on softwood/hardwood joists to extend their durability is recommended.
