Novosepara 5 - Aluminum floor separator profile

Dimensions

a=12,5 mm

h= 9,5 - 12 - 15 - 20 mm

Applications

Novosepara 5 Aluminum is a profile intended to be placed as a trim in joints between floorings.

Materials

Novosepara 5 aluminum is a profile made by extrusion of aluminum. The anodizing process improves the corrosion resistance, mechanical resistance and appearance of profiles. It has the quality seal Qualanod, which guarantees the quality of the process and the resulting profiles. This seal regulates several tests: appearance and color, thickness measurements, sealing and impregnation control, abrasion resistance, lightfastness, acetic saline chamber and nitric acid immersion.

The natural finish has no surface treatment so is less resistant to corrosion and scratching. It is not recommended installing natural finishes without the application of an additional protection.

Aluminum has excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight, tough, ductile, malleable and highly durable.

Technical Features

Fire resistance: M0 (UNE 23-727-90)
Abrasion resistance: Very good
Lightfastness: Excellent
Appearance and color: EN 12373-1

Placement

1. Spread a big amount of gripping material on the surface where the pavement will be installed.
2. Then, place the profile and press it to allow the gripping material pass through the mechanized holes on the fixing wing.
3. Place a tile on the fixing wing of the profile and press to an optimal contact with the gripping material.
4. Repeat the previous step placing tiles along the profile until the installation is finished. Before curing, tap with a rubber hammer to align the profile with the pavement.
5. Finally clean the remaining material and let dry.

* If you are going to polish the soil, you must install the profile slightly below the tile to avoid possible damages.

Cleaning and maintenance

The profiles should be cleaned periodically with a soft cloth. If you use a neutral liquid cleaner, you must rinse the profile with cold water and dry to remove excess moisture.

In all cases the steel wool, abrasive cleaners, souring products as well as strong acids (hydrochloric and perchloric),strong bases (caustic soda or ammonia) or carbonated solutions are not recommended. Citric acid is not recommended because disolves the protective layer of the surface of aluminium. Waxes, petrolatum, lanolin or similar substances are not appropriate. Solvents containing haloalkanes (hydrofluoroether and chlorinated solvents) and curing accelerators containing chlorides should not be used (use special accelerators free of chlorides).
