P288 Structural Glazing Bar System

The P288 is a heavy duty, two-part 60mm wide, long-span structural glazing bar system that was initially designed for installing 25mm multiwall polycarbonate or 24mm double glazed glass units.

When glazing with 25mm multiwall it can span up to 4m at 1250mm centres between fixing points and 2.6m at 600mm centres when installing the glass units. For longer roofs the use of additional intermediate purlins will provide extra fixing points.

The P288 glazing bar system consists of a 60mm wide aluminium base bar complete with flat gaskets, a PVCu underclad that clips on to the base bar and a 60mm wide screw-on aluminium capping bar complete with flat gaskets.

Please note that this glazing bar system does not include an end plate.

The base bar should be fixed to its supports top, (middle and) bottom, the glazing faced up and the capping bar screwed on at intervals of no more than 400mm. Each bar should be finished by fitting an aluminium mechanical end plate.

This glazing bar system is stocked as individual packs in white & anthracite grey (RAL7016) in a range of lengths.
