    Default Colorbond Corrugated Filler Strips

    Hi Guys, i've almost finished converting my carport into a brick garage and was wondering if you can buy the filler strips in a metal or colorbond material. I know you can buy foam filler strips as pictured, but is there any other alternative, i want to make the garage as dust free as possible.
    I've also updated my colorbond roof where i want the corrugated to be blocked up.



    cheers

    The foam ones will keep dust out better than any metal ones because they get compressed by the roof sheeting. The metal ones I have seen don't fit the profile very well.

    Thanks for the reply i guess i may have use the foam then, Do you know where the best place to buy these, Bunnings wants around $11 for 3 strips which adds up pretty quickly doing an entire double garage.

    I think Tradelink and most plumbers supplies sell them by the box full.

    Thanks for the replies, Just to give everyone an update if anyone else needs these in the future, I've tried One steel which was a supplier for Lysaught but they have sinced moved away from the roofing area and don't stock anything like this anymore.

    Tradelink: $4.50 each (900mm) length is standard.
    Bunnings: $11 for 3 strips.

    BUT i found Robot Trading (http://www.robottrading.com.au/) has them for $1.95incl GST.
