FIGURE OF EIGHT
Sheerframe 8000, the
very latest suite of
lead-free 70mm window system profiles
from the pioneers of
thermoplastic extrusion, now offers a new
8-chambered mainframe option designed
to provide an array of
specification benefits.
Available in popular
contour styling, the new
8-chambered mainframe
is slim in appearance with
a large face of 52mm to
complement the 60mm intermediate frame and the
70 x 70mm large frame.
When used in combination with a 5-chambered sash fitted with
an expanded PVC foam
Thermlock frame reinforcement and 44mm
Argon gas-filled triple
glazing, the 8-chambered
mainframe window specification will comfortably
deliver an A+ WER “zero
carbon” thermal performance with an impressive
U-value of just 0.8 W/
m2K.
With a 14mm wide rebate upstand and a 56mm
glazing area the Sheerframe 8000 system offers
a future proof choice of
28mm, 36mm, and 44mm
double and triple glazing
along with a glass bonding platform built in from
the start.
‘greater structural
strength’
“The 8-chambered mainframe gives greater structural strength and enables
fabrication of large-span
windows requiring no
reinforcement in most
cases,” comments David
Strang, Sheerframe’s Group
Key Account Director, “and
this new Sheerframe 8000
profile specification is also a
winner in terms of reduced
cost and superior thermal
performance.”
