Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides technical specifications and details for the ARCHFLEX Expansion Joints, specifically the Surface Mount Wall & Ceiling Joint Systems, including the CC and CW Series. These systems are designed to bridge gaps between ceiling planes and adjacent wall structures, accommodating movements due to thermal expansion, contraction, or building settlement.

Specifications: The joint cover assembly is available in various sizes, with joint widths ranging from 50mm to 200mm for the CC Series and 30mm to 200mm for the CW Series. The standard cover plate is made from extruded aluminum alloy (ASTM B221, Alloy 6063-T6) or stainless steel (ASTM 304/316), featuring beveled edges and pre-drilled, countersunk holes for secure installation.

Features: The system maintains a neat, linear appearance and protects the joint from cracking or deformation. It is suitable for commercial, institutional, and public interiors. Optional features include fire-rated barriers, acoustic seals, and vapor-tight gaskets for enhanced performance in specialized environments.

Performance: The system absorbs multidirectional movement from thermal fluctuations, structural motion, or minor seismic activity, preventing cracks and joint failures in ceiling finishes. The continuous cover plate conceals the joint gap while allowing accessibility for inspection or maintenance.

Applications: The minimalist profile of the joint systems makes them ideal for environments where both function and design quality are essential, such as healthcare facilities, laboratories, or cleanrooms.

Catalog excerpts

SURFACE MOUNT WALL & CEILING JOINT SYSTEMS B This joint cover assembly bridges the gap between the ceiling plane and adjacent wall structures, allowing for controlled movement caused by thermal expansion, contraction, or building settlement. The system maintains a neat, linear appearance while protecting the joint from cracking or deformation over time. Its minimalist profile makes it suitable for use in commercial, institutional, and public interiors where both function and design quality are essential. ■ The standard cover plate is manufactured from extruded aluminum alloy (ASTM B221, Alloy 6063-T6) or stainless steel (ASTM 304 / 316), depending on project requirements. The plate features beveled edges for a smooth visual transition and increased safety during maintenance operations. It comes with pre-drilled, countersunk holes to ensure secure and precise installation onto the ceiling framing or wall substrate. Available surface finishes include mill finish, anodized, brushed stainless steel, or custom powder-coated options to coordinate with surrounding architectural elements. ■ The system absorbs multidirectional movement resulting from thermal fluctuations, differential structural motion, or minor seismic activity, preventing cracks and joint failures in ceiling finishes such as gypsum board, plaster, or acoustic panels. Its continuous cover plate conceals the joint gap while maintaining accessibility for inspection or maintenance when required. B In addition to standard aluminum and stainless steel constructions, optional fire-rated barriers, acoustic seals, and vapor-tight gaskets can be integrated to enhance the system's performance in specialized environments such as healthcare, laboratories, or cleanrooms. These accessories provide added protection against fire, sound transmission, and air leakage across the joint. MODEL JOINT HEIGHT SIGHTLINE TOTAL MOVEMENT WIDTH OPTIONS KORFEZ MH. KARADUT SK.
