36mm Flat Glazing Packers
36mm flat glazing packers for extra-wide glazing channels and larger unit installations where a broad, dependable support surface is needed. These polypropylene packers help installers raise, level, and position sealed units with controlled spacing across wider frame systems.
Product Overview
36mm Flat Glazing Packers are extra-wide plastic packers designed for glazing jobs where a larger bearing surface is required beneath the glass unit.
At 36mm wide and 100mm long, FP36 packers offer more contact width than 32mm and 34mm packers, making them useful for wider channels, larger glazed units, door sections, and curtain walling applications where stable support is important.
Manufactured from polypropylene, these packers are firm, rot-resistant, and moisture-resistant. They help maintain the correct glass position during installation while providing reliable support under load.
Why installers choose 36mm Flat Glazing Packers:
- Extra-wide 36mm profile for broad unit support
- Useful for larger sealed units and wider glazing channels
- Helps distribute support across a wider contact area
- Suitable for window, door, conservatory, and curtain walling work
- Strong polypropylene construction for stable packing
These 36mm glazing packers are a practical option when the glazing channel allows for a wider packer and the installation requires a stable, even support point under the unit.
