SPECIFICATION SHEET
Strip Width | Depending on the application, 100x2mm, 150×3 (or 5)mm, 200x2mm, 300×3(or 5)mm or 400x4mm strips can be used (or wider sheets for screening applications). Most commonly used strips are 150x3mm, however, this should be consistent with the application and the requirements of sealing, frequency & type of the traffic etc. Special widths of 65mm and 75mm is also available in a variety of colours. |
Strip Thickness | For external openings, which are higher than normal, 4 or 5mm strips are better than 3mm, however for internal openings, 3mm strips generally work best, however, this should be consistent with the application and the requirements of sealing, frequency & type of the traffic etc. |
Overlap | Overlap selected should be consistent with the requirements of sealing the opening, frequency and type of the traffic. For instance, the bigger the overlap, the better the sealing. Higher overlap is required for high openings and for high/moderate wind areas. |
Head Rail | For openings with moderate traffic up to 2200high, light duty head rail is suitable. Medium duty head rail is better for all other openings. Heavy duty head rail is also available for openings with heavy traffic or the openings where many fixings points are not available at the head of the opening. Head rail is made of Clear Anodised Aluminium, specially extruded so that head of the bolts can be slid in. |
Fixing | Face fixing is recommended, as it gives better sealing on the sides and does not reduce the opening height. |
