What is the metal rail holding the coroplast to the frame?

  Hi. It’s called a termination strip. Made from aluminum. It’s used with a rubber roof system to secure the edges on the facia or rake. Menards, here in the Midwest, or any big box store that sells rubber roofing materials should carry them. Don’t know if they come in different sizes.

  Whoa! No wonder the people at Lowe’s and Home Depot couldn’t identify it. Thanks J&D for your help. I’ll contact some roofing folks tomorrow.

  Mike - Just cleaning up the underside of the trailer so it doesn't detract from the new diamond plate valve boxes!  I was actually toying with the idea of covering the entire bottom in diamond plate, but sanity returned.

  @Tabaz   I am thinking about replacing the coroplast myself.  But I agree, if sanity prevails I won't.
  
  Adding tank heaters and would like to add some insulation.  I was thinking a more rigid bottom cover would be a nice upgrade.

  Can't you just replace the strips with flat aluminum bar from Home Depot?

  Tundra57 - I looked into that.  The metal bars are significantly thicker than the factory stuff.  I did find out Lowe's and Home Depot sell the factory strips for about $5 each.  They come in 10' lengths are are dropped shipped to a location of your choosing.
