The load bearing test was carried out with a window using 6 window brackets at full extension. An additional 203kg was added to the window and left to hang for 114hours the window drop was less than 1mm.
The maximum wind pressure was carried out on a window using 6 window brackets at full extension. A gradual pressure was added to the window with a maximum load of 4000N without failure or deformation of the window brackets.
The bracket is made from ferritic stainless steel, zinc alloy, copper nickel chrome plated and a grey acetal homopolymer.
Normal operating temperature is -20°C to +60°C.
Materials used will not degrade,
due to ultraviolet light or when using neutral acidity non-solvent cleaning chemicals, at a rate faster than other parts of the window assembly.
The Offsite bracket has been EPD verified Environmental Product Declaration In accordance with ISO 14025:2006 and EN15804:2012+A2:2019/AC:2021.
Training
We offer support throughout the whole project assisting you to look out for key specifications for all windows and doors.
Training is also offered in the factory whilst the timber is in production showing the production workers different windows and doors designs, drainage holes etc. and how to fit the bracket to the windows and then onto the timber frame.
Once factory fitted and the timber frame is erected onsite, we can offer onsite training on how to commission the windows from the transportation position to the final window reveal position.
