System 50 - Sloped Glass Enclosures

|
Marlin System 50 slope glazing is a custom fabricated system
for overhead glazing applications. Internal condensation gutters
allow moisture to be drained to a continuous transition gutter. It
features a rigid polyurethane "thermal barrier" as an integral part
of the framing members to ensure outstanding thermal
performance.
System 50 has a 2" x 5" rafter designed to accept a steel
insert for longer spans. The system is assembled with screw race
construction or shear block method. Snap in fillers conceal bolt
connections at head and transition to provide a clean attractive
appearance.
The system accepts 1/4" to 1" glazing options. Glazing is
accomplished from the exterior with screw applied pressure plates
and wet seal. Snap on cover caps provide a clean, flush grid
appearance
