Aluminum profile for glass - a variety of
Among the materials having the widest application in any field of human activity, for example in construction and other works, it is possible to note aluminum and its alloys. It is advantageously distinguished by its low cost, low weight, high strength in the alloy and resistance to external influences: so the range of temperature differences is almost three hundred degrees Celsius, high resistance to aggressive media, etc.
Profiles are divided into several types, they are distinguished by their geometry( corner, pipe, rectangle, square, etc.) and areas of application( doors and windows made of aluminum, protective nets-"mosquito nets" on them, etc.).
For the construction of small forms( trade pavilions, equipment in them), special profile elements are used for frameworks of increased strength. The aluminum profile has been successfully used to manufacture a number of security devices: roller shutters, blinds, gates, etc.
Special profiles of the rack-and-pinion type, as well as systems called façade profiles, used for glazing, partitioning devices, etc.- All of the above "arsenal" has a long service life, is easily processed in the course of application, allows you to create structural solutions of any complexity.
Aluminum window profile - features of production and installation
Along with a number of advantages, the material has a high thermal conductivity, as a result of which, the construction needs additional measures of thermal protection. In industrial production are produced, so-called, warm structures from the aluminum profile.
The peculiarity of them is that the aluminum window profile has special thermal inserts-insulators( called thermal bridges) having thermal conductivity one and a half order lower than that of aluminum. This design "breaks" the horizontal belt profile, excluding the freezing of windows or door leaf.
This aluminum multi-chamber profile is used to create insulating glass units with the ability to operate in the most extreme temperature conditions.
Widely used glazing with aluminum profile in the design of facade structures, loggias or different balconies. The use of such a profile allows not only to successfully solve the problem of isolation from external dust and noise in city streets, but also to improve the appearance due to the high surface fineness of the profiles.
This is achieved by giving them a different shape( for example, a ribbed surface, a zaovalenny or figured edge, decorative inserts of plastic in a special groove) and applying a durable outer coating at the production stage. So, anodized surface can look like chrome, bronze, gold, silver, cognac, can be imitated the surface of the tree( as examples it is enough to bring the richness of the color of the ceiling ceilings), etc.
The advantages of an aluminum profile under glass include simplicity and fast installation speed. As well as a high degree of unification, eliminating the need for labor-intensive fitting when installing products.
At the same time, when such a need arises, the fit is as quick and simple as possible. High reliability and durability of operation allows the design revision or reuse of its elements in the future with practically no loss of properties.
As already mentioned, there is a special multi-chamber aluminum profile for double-glazed windows with thermal bridges. The use of such a profile has a number of undeniable advantages over plastic systems. And above all, this is complete safety for human health.
The durability and strength of aluminum double-glazed windows is immeasurably higher, which allows to successfully solve problems of increasing safety, etc. In general, the total cost of operation of such insulating glass is much lower than that of plastic windows. Of course, the cost of a profile with a thermal bridge may seem high, but after all, its service life is at least eight decades.
Aluminum profile for double-glazed windows - fastening of glass and mesh
When choosing a profile for yourself, you need to remember that the use of "warm" options is advisable for windows, entrance doors, etc., ie.in places where you need to keep warm. At the same time, for cold loggias or balconies the "cold" profile is more suitable.
The possibilities of aluminum multi-chamber profiles with a thermal bridge for doors and double-glazed windows allow them to withstand temperature changes of about one hundred degrees without forming a dew point. But, like all door and window systems, they need protection from dust and insects, being open, especially in the warm season.
And then come to the aid of well-proven mosquito nets. It is very simple( even independently) to perform a similar construction, using an aluminum profile for mosquito nets. As always, the main wishes and requirements for such an aluminum structure will be durability, strength and reliability of fastening, resistance to external influences of the environment.
The Mosquito Aluminum Profile should provide easy installation and reliable mesh fixing, the correct frame geometry( special mounting angles will help here) and the absence of cracks and looseness when installing in a window, door, window, etc. For a close fit of the frame, special Z-shaped fastening brackets are usually used, keeping it in the lower and upper parts.
On the frame assembled from the profile and corners, by means of a special sealing cord inserted into the groove, the mesh and side handles are strengthened for mounting it in the brackets of the holders. An important point of attachment of the Z-shaped brackets is the treatment of the sealant points of their attachment to the profile of the window or door.
