How Bendy Is 4mm Correx?

[Sunnycharlie]

I'm planning on expanding my piggy cage as my babies are growing at an alarming pace! I have cubes already and have sourced some 4mm correx locally. It will need picking up though and I'm not sure how flexible the 4mm correx is. I need to get a 2.4 x 1.2 sheet into my Zafira. It obviously won't go in as a flat sheet but does it bend without damaging?

It should roll up fairly ok. My 2mm was flexible and I shouldn't think 4mm with be drastically different.

If it rolls, it's no problem. I know the 2mm is really bendy but I thought the 4mm would be more rigid?

It will be yes, but I think it'll be bendable. Maybe someone else on the forum can say for certain though.

Hmmmm....it's not really that flexible. And it will roll width wise...so even with it rolled you'll still have the 2.4m length to deal with. Without cutting it at the shop there's no way I would've got a 2.4 x 1.2 x 4mm in my car - a Honda Accord.

I hope you manage. Good luck!

Ah, so I need to measure my Zafira! I wasn't sure which way the corragations ran. If it doesn't fit, I will have to get the 2mm version instead.

When I picked up mine from a local sign maker the guy scored it for me so I could fold it in half. Didn't affect the use as I just put tape on the scolded part and turned it the other way around. That's always an option if it doesn't roll up. (which I didn't think it would with 4mm... )
