Technical Details
  • The seal is made of extruded silicone elastomer giving it unique properties and making it ideal for compression seal draught proofing. These include, exceptional resistance to UV and weathering, an operating temperature range of -30°C to 200°C and far superior compression set resistance to any other material.
Fitting Details
The seal is normally fixed to the top edge of each louvre pane with the blade pointing outwards. On the bottom louvre pane fix to the lower edge with the blade pointing inwards. Fitting can be carried out from inside the building. The edge to be sealed must be degreased prior to adhesive application.

Cut the louvre seal to the required length. Apply a bead of adhesive into the foot of the seal, then slide the seal into position over the edge of the glass. When all panes have seal fitted, the window must be left partially open for 1½ hours for adhesive curing. No further adjustment will be necessary.
