A. When used with an adhesive, the toggle makes the COMPOSOLITE® panel connections as strong as the shear strength of the joint. Refer to Section 15 in the Strongwell Design Manual for more information. With regard to banding, a fiberglass channel measuring 3.42″ x 1.3″ x .125″ can be used to cover and band open ends on COMPOSOLITE® panels.
