What is Edge Banding ?
Edge banding is a process in woodworking where a strip of material is applied to the edges of a piece of furniture, such as a cabinet or table, to give it a finished look and protect the edges from damage. The strip is typically made of plastic, veneer, or solid wood and is attached using glue or a heat-activated adhesive.
What is PVC Edge Banding Used For ?
PVC Edge banding is used in woodworking to finish and protect the edges of furniture pieces such as cabinets, desks, tables, and bookshelves. The main purposes of pvc edge banding are:
Aesthetics: PVC Edgebanding provides a finished, uniform look to the furniture piece, hiding rough or raw edges and enhancing its overall appearance.
Durability: PVC Edge banding protects the edges from damage, such as chipping, splitting, or warping, prolonging the life of the furniture.
Surface protection: PVC Edge banding prevents moisture, dirt, and debris from penetrating and damaging the edge of the furniture, maintaining its clean and hygienic surface.
Concealment: PVC Edge banding can be used to conceal different types of edges, such as the end grain of plywood or MDF, which can be unsightly or difficult to finish.
What is the best thickness for edge banding?
The size of pvc edge banding you should use depends on the thickness of the edge to be covered. PVC Edge banding is typically available in thicknesses ranging from 0.5mm to 3mm. The most common thicknesses are 1mm and 1.5mm pvc edge banding .
Here are some general guidelines:
For edges with a thickness of less than 12mm, use a 1mm pvc edge banding.
For edges with a thickness of 12-18mm, use a 1.5mm pvc edge banding.
For edges with a thickness of more than 18mm, use a thicker edge banding, such as 2mm pvc edge banding or 3mm edge banding, to ensure adequate coverage and a seamless finish.
It's important to measure the exact thickness of the edge before purchasing pvc edge banding to ensure a proper fit. Keep in mind that some pvc edgeband is designed to be folded and bonded to both sides of the edge for added strength and stability.
