Winged Slat
When you need increased privacy, our Winged Slat® is the answer.
With the proven quality and durability of our standard slats plus unique “wings” for extra screening and security, these slats are self-locking–no channels are needed!
HIGH DURABILITY
Pexco PDS® HDPE Fence Products are resistant to severe weather conditions, salt water, sand, road dirt, most acids, alcohol, alkaline, ammonia, petroleum distillates, and common environmental pollutants.
EASY MAINTENANCE
Pressure cleaning of surface contaminants is quickly accomplished with plain water.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1:
Insert vertical slats with angle cut end downward. Winged portion interlocks with chain link knuckles.
Note:
These are friction-fitting Fence Slats. Additional time should be allowed for installation.
IMPORTANT:
For fence heights higher than 8 feet, we strongly advise NOT to double-stack Winged Slats®. If you double-stack, you will be at risk of the Winged Slats® not all giving the same visual appearance or giving the same privacy effect on the top and bottom portions of the Fence.
Specifications
Design: Our innovative Winged Slat has a rigid, flat tubular body, with “legs” inside for extra support and durability. Flexible and resilient wing portions are positioned on each side of the slat body. Serrations are added to the wings for easier installation and locking power.
Standard Heights: 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 feet.
Slat Length: 2” shorter than the overall height of the fence.
Wind Load & Privacy Factor: Approximately 90%. (Based on wire/mesh
used – stretch tension).
