Cross-section of tilt & turn window IV78 TREND Overall U value Uw=1,25 W.m-2K-1
Elements description:
Frame width 78 mm
Seal (alkoxic silicone) glued to facilitate the flow of rainwater front the window
Multiple hinges ROTO hardware hardware (model which maximally reduces the amount of visible hardware). The sash is perfectly fixed to the frame
enabling opening, half-opening and semi-half-opening (micro ventilation) of the window. The hardware is covered with "titanium layer" (white galvanize)
increasing its performance. The mechanism is equipped with plastic sleeves which decrease wear and tear the rotating parts
Aluminium wing drip mould protects wood against moisture flowing off the glass
Sash
Aluminium frame drip mould with increased ventilation chamber to carry away water
Undercut for the external windowsill
Radial and half-radial graining of wood – glued in four layers to prevent bowing and cracking of wood
Undercut for the internal windowsill
Sikkens-Four-layer surface finish system in-depth impregnation, colour impregnation, high pressure coating with 150 µm glazing. This advanced system
provides a barrier against severe weather conditions whilst allowing the timber to breathe actively. Temperature and humidity changes are compensated
for by the high elasticity of the paint coating resulting in a lifetime product providing the maintenance guide is followed.
Tightly fitted seal envelope – manufactured from a double thickness of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). The soft part ensures a perfect seals and facilitates
closing of the window. The fixed part protects the seal from being pushed too deeply into the canal
Environmentally friendly waterproof glue – Class D4 with a polyvinyl acetate base
Setting feather – manufactured from high-percissive polyvinyl chloride
Beading
Absorbent (hygroscopic agent) – absorbs moisture in the air cavity
Double-glazing 6-22-4 Ug=1,1 W.m-2K-1 with acoustic insulation of 35 dB. "Float Glass" – manufactured using a vertical pane moulding method. A uniform
thickness and ideal homogeneity is obtained. A technologically advanced fault detection system in the early stages of production eleminates the
possibility of finding fault in the final product.
Argon gas
Seal produced from organic materials. Seals the aluminium frame between the panes of glass
Swisspacer - aluminium or special glass fibre reinforced organic composite material frame (width 22 mm) resulting in a glazing thickness of 32 mm
