• Q. Can I mount the clips into other materials such as fibreglass?
  Yes, for fibreglass you will need to use the CT13 drill bit which is custom designed for the properties of this material.
• Q. Why do clips occasionally break?
  Male clips can be broken due to mishandling, please ensure male clips are not installed until the final fit. We recommend you regularly monitor the diameter of the female hole drilled out by the CT07. If it is less then 16.8mm, undue tension is applied to the female part of clip when screwed in place. This puts pressure on the male part of clip causing occasional breakages. NB do not use standard 16mm drill bits as these will cause breakages.
• Q. Panels are not fitting correctly?
  Please check clip alignment. If panels are fabric covered, check allowance has been made for the correct thickness of fabric on the edge of panels and check the 10mm drill hole is square to face.
