SFM 12 7A 3 is the test standard on attributes, and the same table records 1 documented attribute conflict. OSFM 8160-2246:0500 is the identifier for this Paneltek soffit.

Warnings cite handbook provenance for the listing and ask to match a live GOVmotus row to the exact soffit model. That conflict plus handbook provenance is why the model string is the comparable object, not the eaves category.

Lot comparison and dimension sheets are the next stops.

Spec sheets

  • Engineered Cedar Panelling — Architect's Specification (1x4 and 1x6 packaging and dimension tables) — Paneltek Products Ltd. · PDF
    THE DOCUMENT THAT TURNED A CENSUS HIT INTO A NO-FIGURE. Its THICKNESS column reads `15mm(5/8”)` for every length of both the 1x4 (97mm/3.8" width) and the 1x6 (139mm/5.5" width) — and 15 mm is 0.5906 inch, which is 19/32" and is NOT 5/8" (0.625 in, 15.875 mm). So the manufacturer's own specification contradicts itself inside a single table cell: its metric value agrees with the OSFM listing and its imperial parenthetical agrees with the drawing. Both Visscher and Canyon print the same 15 mm alongside 19/32", which is the corroboration that makes the parenthetical the outlier rather than the metric.

CAD drawings

  • 1x6 Engineered Tongue and Groove — Fineline and Micro-V dimensioned end sections — Paneltek Products Ltd. · PDF
    One page, two dimensioned end sections, no text layer — rendered at 150 dpi and read as an image. Both sections print a 5/8" thickness, which CONFLICTS with this record's own OSFM listing at 19/32". Covers the 1x6 only; the listing also covers a nominal 4" width for which no drawing is published.
