Stratco Clickfast fascia and gutter system is completely compatible with normal building construction. It complements steel or tiled roofs and means that accurate cutting of rafter ends is no longer required.
Clickfast fascia system uses side-fix fascia brackets which can be nailed into the side of the rafter, rather than the end. Nailing into the side grain of rafters is far stronger than nailing into the end grain which may open up, releasing the nail. The fascia then slides onto the side-fix rafter bracket, allowing for free horizontal movement and uniform expansion and contraction and minimising distortion.
Clickfast fascia system has free horizontal movement, allowing uniform expansion and contraction. It has been designed to allow for gutter fall, using the award winning Clickfast suspension clip. The revolutionary suspension clip allows you to select the amount of fall the gutter receives. This high strength spring-clip is notched to allow for the clip to attach to the suspension rib found on all Stratco gutters. Gutters can even be adjusted later to correct house settlement.
Clickfast fascia and gutter system was designed to comply with Australian Standards including 'Metal rainwater goods - selection & installation'. This standard requires that eaves gutters receive a minimum 1 in 500 fall.
