Aluminium profile:
Alloy SIS 4104-06 finished as standard in brown or natural anodising or
white varnish to provide minimal maintenance.
By implementation of strict internal Quality Control procedures throughout
the manufacturing period from initial extrusion to final anodising process,
the chemical bonding of the oxide film to the profile which prevents the
peeling or stripping of the coating, is carefully monitored.
H Windows are also available in a range of 60 selected powder coating
colours from the Corro-Coat range to enhance the designer's options.
Timber Profile:
Class 'B' Redwood conforming to SIS 818102 (not finger-jointing). The
timber sections are supplied with the surfaces treated either with varnish
or electrostatic spraying applied under controlled factory conditions.
Glazing and joint material conforming to SIS 818140.
Factory-fitted sealing-strip of Q-Ion type V-strip. Fittings:
Fittings:
The H Window fitting is made of cold- rolled steel, zinc-plated (minimum
15 microns), yellow chromed with protective lacquer based upon the counter
balance principle to ensure the window is always fully balanced.
Espagnolette of zinc-plated steel. Polished chrome handle which can also
be supplied with a lock.
For ease of installation and to suit client requirements, window frames
can be pre-drilled prior to delivery and be provided with sealing caps.
Quality control:
As well as the stringent in-house quality control, independent testing
is undertaken by the Swedish National Testing and Research Institute.
The Institute visits the plant two or three times a year and selects windows
from the production line on a random basis to he tested in their laboratories.
Copies of test certificates can be made available upon request.
Technical
and design service:
Our technical representatives are available to give advice to all specifiers
of the H Aluminium Window System.
If you are unable to utilise the standard product in your design we can
discuss the individual requirement and subject to viability of cost, advise
on solutions.
Quality assurance:
Manufacture of all products is carried out in our Swedish factories under
P-Mark licence, the Swedish equivalent of the British Standard Kite-Mark,
regulated under the auspices of the Swedish National Testing and Research
Institute.
Products have been independently tested in the U.K. to determine weather-
tightness with respect to air infiltration, water penetration and wind
resistance, in accordance with BS 5368: Part 1: I976, BS 5368: Part 2:1980,
BS 5368: Part 3: 1978, as modified by BS 6375 Part 1: 1989.
The following results were obtained:
Air Infiltration. The samples satisfied the requirements of BS
6375: Part 1:1989, to a test pressure class of 600 Pa, Grade C.
Water Penetration. The samples satisfied the requirements of BS
6375: Part 1: 1989, to a test pressure class of 600 Pa. No water leakage
was observed throughout the tests.
Wind Resistance. The samples satisfied the requirements of BS 6375:
Part 1: 1989, to a test pressure class of 2400 Pa.
