OW TRANSLUCENT LINEAR LOW-IRON CHANNEL GLAZING SYSTEM Pilkington Profilit™ OW is a translucent linear channel glazing system that allows the passage of light in interior or exterior applications. Pilkington Profilit OW consists of an extruded perimeter frame and self-supporting low-iron oxide cast glass channels. The lower iron content allows for higher light and solar transmission and a less green appearance that is typical of standard glass. Pilkington Profilit OW is available in Standard Cast, Wave and Macro textures and can be coated with Low-E, Antisol® and Amethyst coatings. Pilkington Profilit OW can be sandblasted for added privacy. FEATURES • Available in Standard Cast (patterned surface), Wave (large wave texture), and Macro (netted screen texture) – see side 2 for photos • Optional coatings: Low-E (for improved u-values), Antisol® (for solar protection), Amethyst (blue tint) • All textures are available sandblasted for added privacy • Available in long channel lengths – up to 23 ft (7 m) • May be tempered or filmed to meet impact safety requirements • Can be thermally toughened (can also add ceramic frit for color), enameled and heat soaked • Allows passage of light while maintaining privacy • May be insulated with Lumira® aerogel for energy efficiency • Excellent light transmission • Sound insulation (up to 42 db uninsulated, 44 db with Lumira aerogel insulation) • Can be utilized in curved walls • Installs vertically or horizontally • Aluminum perimeter frame provides additional structural strength • Interior applications may be installed into wood jambs or millwork instead of TGP’s aluminum framing • Minimal maintenance • Most channels available with pinstripe wires GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS APPROXIMATE FACE WIDTH APPROXIMATE FLANGE HEIGHT STANDARD THICKNESS MAXIMUM LENGTH WEIGHT / FT2 OF CHANNEL SURFACE (including frame and components) LIGHT TRANSMISSION U-VALUE (glass only) SOLAR HEAT GAIN COEFFICIENT STC RATING 2.36 in (60 mm) .28 in (7 mm)* Up to 23 ft (varies according to windload and project requirements) 12 lb / ft2 dual glazed 7 lb / ft2 single glazed 90% (uninsulated, varies with coating) .49 (uninsulated), .40 (Low-E uninsulated), .21 (Low-E with 16 mm Lumira aerogel insulation), .19 (Low-E with 25 mm Lumira aerogel insulation) .70 (uninsulated), .45 (Low-E uninsulated), .42 (Low-E with 16 mm Lumira aerogel insulation), .31 (Low-E with 25 mm Lumira aerogel insulation) 42 dB (uninsulated), 44 dB (with 16 mm or 25 mm Lumira aerogel insulation) *6 mm options are also available.
