Novoescuadra Inox - Overlapping stainless steel corner profile

Stainless steel profiles intended for the protection or decoration of edges of any type of covering. It is perfect for rehabilitation or reform work since it does not require doing work for its installation. It is also ideal for the protection of deteriorated or poorly finished edges of old installations.

Materials

Novoesquadra Stainless steel is a profile made of AISI-304 stainless steel. All batches of material used are composition tested to determine that they meet the alloy specification. Stainless steel has also been tested for corrosion resistance, exceeding 500 hours of exposure without showing signs of corrosion.

Stainless steel is a highly resistant and durable material with an excellent surface appearance that does not degrade over time. The available finish is brushed. All finishes are smooth and slightly porous, thus facilitating installation hygiene.

Placement

1. Initially clean the profile and the surface where it will be placed, to facilitate a correct adhesion without imperfections.
2. Then apply adhesive to the inside faces of the profile to facilitate bonding. You can use a mounting adhesive or polyurethane putty.
3. Align the profile against the surface and hold it down until a proper bond has been produced.
4. Remove excess material, if necessary, and allow to dry.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the material immediately after installation is essential to prevent the remains of mortar, cement or iron particles from scouring pads or tools from causing corrosion pitting.

For interior applications, you can use dishwashing liquid, detergent, or liquid soap to remove dirt and possible fingerprints that have been marked. For high gloss finishes you can use a glass cleaner. There are specific stainless steel cleaners on the market that clean it and reduce the appearance of possible stains. Whenever you clean the stainless steel, be sure to rinse it well and dry it completely to avoid tarnishing.

Steel wool or similar products are not recommended, as they can scratch the surface and create corrosion pitting. Take special care in the use of materials containing chlorides, as they are contraindicated since they cause oxidation. Hydrochloric acid or iron products in prolonged contact are also not recommended. Never use ordinary steel cleaners for stainless steel.
