End Cap Installation - Installing the End Caps
1. Place the end cap in front of the TruOrganics 3G boards holes and push in as shown in Diagram 5. If
additional pressure is needed to install the end caps a rubber mallet should be used.
2. Silicone (shown in Diagram 5) is recommended to be used on the end cap or inside the holes of the
board in order to secure the end caps and seal the end of the deck board.
3. When finished, the ends of the boards should look like Diagram 6 below.

Additional Installation Information
Routing
Solid boards can be routed for hidden fasteners to be
placed in them as shown in Diagram 7. Please note that
boards should not be routed the entire length of the
deck.
Expansion Space in Extreme Climates: Manual
Equation
In extreme climates additional expansion space
between the boards may be necessary. Please
reference the formula below to calculate your
expansion space.
What you will need to know:
• Coefficient of Linear Expansion (CLE): 0.04 mm/m (°C) / 20.2 x 10E-6 inch/inch/ (°F)
• Installation Temperature (°C or °F)
• Max or Minimum Temperature in your region (°C or °F)
A. When installing at a low temperature always use the maximum temperature in your region to calculate
B. When installing at a high temperature always use the minimum temperature in your region to calculate
• Length of the Board (mm / inches)
Expansion space = Coefficient of Linear Expansion (CLE, °C or °F) x Length of the Board (mm / inches) x
(Max. or Min. Temp. in your region - Installation Temp., (°C or °F).
