| PanelGrip for installation of Glass Panel Railings The Wagner Companies has developed PanelGrip, a dry-mount glazing system for the installation of tempered glass panel railings. PanelGrip enables the installer to fabricate a structural Glass Railing System with cost reductions up to 80% in labor and 30% in freight. The Wagner PanelGrip System is a patent-pending locking assembly of high-strength aluminum, two PVC isolators, and a specially designed aluminum shoe moulding. PanelGrip requires no special tools and provides an easy, clean and cost effective alternative for the installation of tempered glass panels. PanelGrip is for use with nominal ½" (12mm) tempered glass or other ½" thick panel material and allows for a .450" to .515" range in glass thickness. The PanelGrip System was tested per ASTM E935, Standard Test Methods for Performance of Permanent Railing Systems and Rails for Buildings. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
