FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What are 4 mm F-frames and what are they used for?
4 mm F-frames are F-shaped perimeter trims used to frame the face panels of larger 3D channel letters and logos. They create a secure mounting lip to connect the face to the letter return while sealing the interior against dirt and moisture.
When should I choose 4 mm F-frames over the 3 mm version?
They are selected when using 4 mm thick panels (typically cast acrylic or polycarbonate), which are required on larger letter signs to ensure greater rigidity and prevent wind deflection.
How are 4 mm F-frames mounted and shaped?
The trim is slotted onto the perimeter of the routed sheet and bonded with dedicated acrylic adhesive. For bends and corners, the rear flange is notched or heated with a heat gun to follow the letter contours accurately.
