EWJ-Series | ♦ Custom Colors Available - The primary visual seals are extruded from Santoprene® material. The seal may be custom colored to coordinate with any building’s façade. Standard colors include black, white, tan, and gray. ♦ Once the extruded aluminum frames are attached to the walls, the seals easily snap-fit into the frames. ♦ There are two different profile configurations to suit a variety of design applications. The first profile is our smooth seal which utilizes fewer ‘V’s for those who require only 50% movement. Our second profile is our ridge seal which utilizes multiple ‘V’s to achieve 100% movement ♦ Seals can be heat-fused at directional changes to ensure weather-tight junctures. Parapet transitions are factory produced to ensure a continuous weather barrier. |
