Stiles and rails are manufactured from extruded 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, sized and configured for maximum strength without unnecessary, non-functional bulk. |
• |
Stiles and rails are joined with mitered corners and angle blocks secured by 3/8" (9.5mm) diameter full-width galvanized steel tie rods. |
| • |
Tie rods run through integral splines in the top and bottom rails, effectively making the tie rod a part of the rail. |
| • |
Face sheets are secured on all four sides by full-length integral reglets on the edges of the stiles and rails. |
| • |
Poured-in-place urethane core with a minimum five pounds per cubic foot density ensures impact resistance, flexural strength, and thermal insulation. In addition, it won't absorb or be damaged by water. |
| • |
Anodized aluminum finishes are Class 1 (.7mil/.018mm) and resist fading and corrosion. |
| • |
Aluminum face sheets are 0.62" (1.6mm) thick architectural-quality 5005 alloy. |
