50 Plastic Window & Glazing Packers Spacers 1mm - 6mm

Product Information

Insulating properties that raise the temperature of the glass edges. This aids in reducing condensation and boosts the window’s general energy efficiency. An aluminum window spacer is typically shaped like a square. That kind of shape is inflexible, which is a top factor in why the seal fails and the window gets foggy. This guarantees better insulation on the edges of the glass, which is the location on the window that typically has the least effective insulation. Plus, it nearly gets rid of all of the condensation located on the edges of the window which are related to metal spacers which conduct cold air. This program is offered in addition to manufacturer warranty. Should a product become damaged or otherwise inoperable past the point of installation, Window Mart will provide a one-time, free of charge repair or replacement of the product. However, as it is such a highly conductive metal, it is not the most efficient material. Aluminium conducts heat at the edge of the sealed unit, which reduces the insulating effect.

In enhanced testing, the Super Spacer was shown to last more than twice as long as the other two seal systems. Plus, it lasted five times longer than one seal systems. With the new thermal performance requirements established by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 enacted by President Obama, ENERGY STAR promises an Energy Tax Credit, but only if: Another benefit of the Intercept ® Spacer System is how it looks inside the window. With its rigidity and strong seal, it sits tight between the two panes of glass and gives the window a crisp, clean look with uninterrupted sight lines. Foam spacers are often placed by hand inside the insulating glass unit within a window. Because foam is a very pliable material, it doesn't always sit straight inside the panes of glass and can result in a wavy appearance, which interferes with the window’s sight lines.Super Spacer® features an all-foam dual-seal construction to maximize strength and efficiency. No other window spacer can offer the same level of performance. A Super Spacer unit withstands temperatures of 140°F/60°C and humidity levels of 95% to 100%. Plus, the continual bombardment of ultraviolet rays during the world’s toughest test of durability which is the P-1 chamber. Spacer bars hold a desiccant – an absorbent substance such as silica pellets. Small holes in their surface allow the desiccant to adsorb moisture from within the sealed unit during its lifetime. What are spacer bars made from? Every window unit is comprised of two (or sometimes three) panes of glass separated by a spacer that holds the panes together, creating an insulating air space where a safe gas, such as argon or krypton, can be added to protect the home from heat loss and the outside elements. Understanding Spacers Stainless steel materials, along with their properties, are similar to those of aluminum spacers. However, stainless steel has only one-tenth the thermal conductivity of aluminum and improves condensation resistance.

The Supercept Spacer System has a distinct U-shape that will allow enough flex to keep the seal in all climates, but at the same time, it maintains adequate rigidity so as to ensure thermal performance and temperature control. Although we send all items on a next day service, due to our freight mostly being un-conveyable through the courier hub network our delivery partners ask that we allow 2 working days for any item sent by us. The GGF (Glass and Glazing Federation) of London, England has recently completed a study of warm edge spacer systems that began in January, 2002. The government funded Pii Project's primary objective was the evaluation of the thermal conductivity of commercially available warm edge spacer systems. The study included aluminum bar, Azon Warm Light, Swiss Spacer, TPS, Swiggle strip and Edgetech Super Spacer. The two year project included software simulations as well as "real performed with various window componants such as clear glass, low-e glass, soft timber framing and aluminum framing systems. Each test series was kept standard with the exception of the spacer bar. At project completion, Edgetech's Super Spacer was best in all catagories.

In the same vein as the gas fill, glass spacers play a significant role in thermal performance of an insulating glass unit. Therefore, it is imperative to make sure your spacer technology is effective and sustainable. If you really want to make your home 95% safe from the nuisances of sound pollution, then you should opt to get acoustically laminated glass or noise reduction windows in combination with your Super Spacers. Clera Windows + Doors specializes in securing your home from the annoying sounds outside, so you can enjoy the serenity of your household. High Quality Heat Flow Resistance Moisture increases the chance for mould to grow, which is hazardous to your health. Keep your family safe from infections, allergies, or asthma by investing in Super Spacer. Decreases Stress On Sealants This is because it effectively improves the glass surface temperature, has optimal sound absorption, has proper heat flow resistance, minimizes stress on the sealants, and helps repel condensation better than its competitors. Its amazing thermal control abilities, flexibility, and quality are truly unparalleled. Why Is The Super Spacer The Best Choice For Your Windows?

In the past, two-pane windows have spaces made of metal. Normally, the metal used in spacer systems was aluminum. The issue with using aluminum is that it is an effective material for the conduction of cold and heat. As a homeowner you are going to make a significant investment in your home by purchasing new windows. Style, color and cost are all very important factors to consider. It is equally important to understand and consider the components of a window that you don't usually see, such as the spacer.

When it comes to thermal performance, the Intercept ® spacer and foam spacers are equal. However, a myth being propagated by foam spacer manufacturers is that metal spacers lead to poor thermal performance in a window. Using scientific evidence and thermal imaging technology, it has been proven that Intercept ® stainless steel spacers are just as effective as foam when it comes to thermal performance.

Growing energy requirements, though, created demand for newer solutions. So, warm edge spacers made from low-conductivity materials were introduced as a higher-performance alternative to traditional aluminum spacers. Spacer bars are an integral and critical feature of a sealed unit – the glazed element of the window that sits within the frame. Spacer bars are used to separate the panes of glass to form a cavity that enables thermal insulation.

Warm edge spacer bars lower the U-values of windows, and are therefore becoming an industry standard. Is there a choice of colour? When it comes to material, spacers are typically divided into two main groups – aluminum or warm edge spacers. The significantly decreased interior condensation or fogging means any health issues caused by mold can be almost completely eradicated.
