Folding Guide

The most commonly used folds are identified below. Certain folds require an allowance
for short panels in order to enable folded panels to nest properly. Short panels
are noted in the flat sheet diagrams. The amount of trim on short panels is a function
of the weight of the stock being used. In general, the range is from 1/32" to 1/8".
Consult with your Account Representative to discuss the requirements for any given project.
