James Hardie Starter Strip with Ventilation, 38mm x 3m (SKU: 96125)

The James Hardie Start Strip with Ventilation is designed to provide the correct starting angle for the first cladding siding.



This 3 metre strip suits batten with a thickness of 38mm. This easy-to-cut strip is also made from high quality aluminium.



The minimum recommended size batten that should be used to allow a free-flow ventilation gap between the cladding layer and the substrate is 38mm. Additionally it is critical that an air inlet and air outlet gap of at least 10mm is left at the base and at the roofline, above doors and windows.
