Tolerance: ±10% of the nominal thickness

Note: Uniform wall thickness ensures consistent mechanical and thermal performance.

3. Length

Range/Value: Up to 12 m

Tolerance: ±5 mm for fixed lengths

Note: Can be customized to meet specific project requirements.

4. Straightness

Range/Value: ≤1 mm/m

Tolerance: Not specifically marked

Note: Ensures easy installation and alignment during assembly.
