SST-52 FACADE

Our SST-52 Facade System is the ideal curtain wall solution for any architectural application. Designed to handle large and heavy glazing modules.

DOWNLOAD DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS

A wide range of mullions and transom options ensure compatibility with large and heavy glazing modules.

With mullion profiles ranging from 5/8” to 10”, and transoms ranging from 7/8” to 10”, paired with its ability to utilize a variety of union options, the SST-52 system is a universal and versatile facade solution for vertical, inclined, corner, and polygonal applications.

With a glazing capacity of up to 1-1/8”, and the interior visible section of only 2”, the SST-52 facade system provides great energy efficiency, as well as thermal and acoustic insulation with the help of newly designed polyamide thermal breaks and EPDM gaskets.

The SST-52 yields a clean industrial exterior with integrated drainage channels and aluminum housings around every glazing module.

Characteristics

  • 6063 T-5 (Anodized Aluminum)

  • Thermal Break (polyamide): 3/4”

  • Gaskets: EPDM, Vulcanized (optional)

  • U ≥ 0.14 Btu/(h⋅ft²⋅°F)

  • Max Glazing: 1-1/8”

  • Min Glazing: 1/4”

  • Max Weight (top hung): 396 lb.

  • Max Weight (fixed light): 770 lb.

The SST-52's glass is mechanically fixed to a perimetral frame, utilizing a specially designed external trim that ensures the stability of the glazing. A major advantage of this approach is the elimination of necessity for chemical fixing with structural silicone or similar fixatives. Heavy duty clips are utilized for fixing the glass-frame to the base profile.

The SST-52's exterior look is that of an open channel with aluminum framing around the glass, with EPDM gaskets around the perimeter of each module which serve as the first line of defense against moisture and weather elements.

Vetrina Windows uses AAMA 2604 Powder Coating as the primary process for applying colors to aluminum profiles. Our process yields highly durable long-lasting surfaces, resistant to severe atmospheric conditions. We are proud to offer the full RAL chart as the range of color options for the aluminum frames. Dual-color options are also available, where the exterior and interior frames can be different colors to match any aesthetic.
