Alukap-SS High Span Glazing Bars
Alukap®-SS High Span Glazing Bar has a free-spanning range of up to 6 metres, bettering possibly every other available self-supporting glazing bar. Use them to create much more usable spaces with fewer posts and other supports.
The Alukap®-SS High Span Bar is extruded to deliver a high structural spanning strength providing the ultimate glazing bar system for all commercial, residential and public building structures and canopies. Additionally, Alukap®-SS is designed to work well with Axiome®polycarbonate sheet, single glass glazing and double glazed units. All glazing options work perfectly with the Alukap®-SS wall plate and eaves beam structures too.
Made entirely from quality powder-coated aluminium, the Alukap®-SS glazing system is a low weight, high strength structure that withstands the toughest and most challenging of environments.
With its combination of clean and neat aesthetics, you can rely on the Alukap®-SS Glazing Bar System to suit a wide range of commercial, residential and public structures.
The main top bar comes pre-drilled for quick installation. There is a full-width aluminium snap-down cover cap to conceal all the fixings and pre-lubricated gaskets. There is a metal end cap to reduce glazing slippage.
Choose Alukap®-SS low profile bars for shorter spans of between 3m and 4m.
Choose Alukap-SS wall and gable bars for a suitable finish to the upper part of the glazing beams at wall abutments and gable ends.

Users should carry out their own tests and obtain structural engineer calculations as required to determine the suitability of the material for their application. Installers should satisfy themselves that published permissible loadings and bar spacing’s for Alukap-SS roofs and posts are sufficient to provide adequate strength for the intended use and to meet regional loading requirements.

Protective Films
All plastic sheet products will have a Clear, Blue or White protective film on both sides or a combination of all three. This is to protect during transit and needs removing before usage. Sometimes it can be difficult to peel off but use a thumbnail gently on any corner to lift and peel. Alternatively gently wet any corner with a cloth to separate film and peel.
Adhesives & Sealants
When using any adhesives or sealants with your plastic sheet product great care must be taken in ensuring its compatibility. Some products can react adversely and either not bond/seal properly or would cause the acrylic to cloud or become white at the bond line. Refer to our web pages for advice if unsure. Check your sealant/adhesives ‘use by date’ to ensure its still current for best performance in your project.
