Record 2 2010-07-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Glazing Materials (Constr.)
  • Doors, Windows and Openings (Building Elements)
CONT

Gaskets for Glazing. Structural gaskets, made of preformed and cured elastomeric materials, may be used instead of sash for some applications to hold glass in places. Gaskets are extruded in a single strip, molded into the shape of the window perimeter and installed against the glass and window frames. A continuous locking strip of harder elastomer is then forced into one side of the gasket as a final sealing component. Fit and compression of the gasket determine weathertightness. With proper installation, calking is not ordinarily required; but should it be necessary, sealants are available that are compatible with the material of which the gasket is made. [See] fig. 13-31, structural gasket glazing.

OBS

glazing: The action of ... filling windows with glass.
