Linetec's textured wood grain finishes for aluminum

Linetec’s specialty wood grain coatings for aluminum provide the benefits of metal with the biophilic beauty of natural wood. Choose from more than 50 wood grain species and colors, along with textured grain patterns. Ensuring a durable surface that retains its color and gloss, Linetec's Class 2, 2+ and 2.5+ powder coating process meets or exceeds the AAMA 2604 specification. Linetec’s wood grain finishes for aluminum mimic the aesthetic of real wood without swelling, rotting or warping. Scratch-resistant and corrosion-resistant, these finishes provide protection from UV rays and are impervious to humidity and insects. Supported with a five-year standard warranty, these wood grain finishes maximize the appearance, performance and lifespan of architectural aluminum products. Suitable for both interior and exterior applications, these wood grain finishes are ideal for a variety of architectural components: canopies, trellis systems, handrails, fencing, interior and entry doors, interior wall panels, façade cladding systems, garage doors, shutters, column covers, window and door framing, mullions and decorative accents.

SunGuard® SNR 50

SunGuard SNR 50 coated glass provides a remarkable low solar heat gain, a neutral silver appearance and stunning neutral reflectivity, providing options for architects to achieve a specific aesthetic and make their designs come alive. 

SNR 50 offers a balance of medium reflectivity and neutral aesthetic with a 48 percent visible light transmission and 0.25 solar heat gain coefficient.

“Our projects strive for a sense of belonging and strong contextual relevance,” explains Matthew Z. Leach, AIA, Principal/Senior Designer, Page. “Glass should contribute to the vibrance of the project while highlighting the adjacent materials as well as the reflected context. It is important that the color rendition of reflection be as bright but also as neutral as possible. SunGuard® SNR 50 does this without appearing too dark or too reflective. It’s a very natural, neutral glass, evocative of more classic modern architectural glazing systems. It is as well suited for reflecting the bright sky as it is for reflecting beautiful landscapes and cityscapes."

By combining the classical, neutral aesthetic both at normal and angular incidence with superior energy performance, this new product presents attractive exteriors architects seek while helping to provide bright, comfortable interiors.

Isomelt DM15 Matrix

Isomelt DM15 warm melt matrix is a single-component, desiccant matrix for use with PPG’s patented Intercept® warm-edge technology and functions both as a desiccant and hot melt adhesive.

Isomelt DM15 brings the following to the insulating glass manufacturing industry:

  • Industry-leading desiccant matrix drying capacity
  • Excellent adhesion to various Intercept® coil stocks
  • Meets and/or exceeds the requirements of ASTM E2190

Ködispace® 4SG Reactive Thermoplastic Spacer

H.B. Fuller’s Ködispace 4SG Warm Edge Spacer System is the premier solution for both commercial and residential applications. Characterized by high energy efficiency, superior gas retention, and an automated process resulting in more precise spacer placement, Ködispace 4SG is currently the only reactive thermoplastic spacer system available.

The patented formulation chemically bonds to glass and silicone secondary sealant. There is no spacer migration, and it has a higher temperature stability than standard insulating glass with polyisobutylene (PIB) in addition to an increased resistance to incompatible glazing conditions. Its migration resistance is proven through extensive laboratory testing.

The invisible thermoplastic spacer system ultimately results in a more visually appealing insulating glass, creating a harmonious connection between glass and frame. Additionally, the auto-adjusting application provides unparalleled flexible design freedom and triple glazing manufacturing precision.

Keystone Series

Featuring the broadest portfolio in North America, AmesburyTruth introduces the Keystone series of sliding door products engineered to compliment the vinyl patio door segment. Featuring 6 rollers and a handle set, this series was developed to optimize entry level sliding patio door performance and price.

Innovative design modifications to roller components in our top 3 roller series led to the development of our new single wheel roller and tandem wheel rollers. And just like the rest of the rollers in our portfolio, these meet AAMA standards too. 

Our new handle set offers the strength, performance, and corrosion resistance needed for the vinyl door market at an attractive price.

TPE Foam Compression Seals

Softer weather seals with increased stability are a gap in the marketplace, as the industry evolves to meet growing demand for larger more expansive units. At AmesburyTruth, we are excited to introduce enhanced formulations within our Foam-Tite compression products that allow manufacturers to accommodate these needs. We now offer weather seals with reinforced stiffeners that can help to reduce shrinkage up to 50 percent, decreasing air and water infiltration. In addition, we offer seals with less than 5 pounds of compression force to assist manufacturers in achieving ADA compliance. As a solution provider, AmesburyTruth can collaborate with manufacturers to find innovative options that decrease labor requirements when inserting weather seals.
