The TP-52's glazing is externally pressure fixed to the supporting profiles via strategically positioned screw ports integrated into the mullions and transoms. Special gaskets are used on four sides separating the glass from metal parts. Another external profile plays a role of a continuous cover for the support hardware creating a clean seamless look.
With a visible section of only 2", the TP-52 facade system allows for glazing capacity of up to 2-1/4", which combined with sets of new PVC thermal breaks and EPDM gaskets, offers excellent thermal and acoustic performance, as well as great energy efficiency, approaching U value of 0.1.
OPEARTION
FEATURES
• Mullions: from 5/8" to 10" || Transoms: from 7/8" to 10"
• Visible section: 2”
• Extensive range of profiles and unions
• Vertical, Inclined, 90°, corners, polygonal
• Large and heavy glazing modulations
• Weather Tightness Elements: Drainage pipettes, tear strip gaskets, vulcanized edges
• In order to fix the glass to the supporting profiles, a pressed profile is needed, this profile is screwed to the mullions and transoms, and covered with an embellisher profile (cover profile)

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.
