R Series Manual Solar Shades Details
Controls
- Clutch mechanism is glass-reinforced polyester thermopolymer (PBT) for wear resistance, smooth operation, and corrosion resistance.
- The clutch mechanism is inserted in the roller tube at manufacturing. The mechanism is bidirectional and does not require adjustment or lubrication.
- The control loop is a 10-pound stainless steel bead chain with bead stops attached to the chain to protect the shade from over-rotation.
- The lift assist system is a heavy-duty torsion spring located inside the roller tube. This mechanism reduces the pull force, allowing easy lifting of larger shades.
Fabrics
- Fabric options range from 100% opaque to 14% open.
- Shades with railroaded fabric may have heat-sealed seams.
- Heat-sealed fabric spline allows for easy shade band removal.
- Fully-enclosed heat-sealed hem pocket is standard.
- Solar and blackout shade fabric collections are antistatic, fade and stain resistant, and pass NFPA 701-1999 FR, and ASTM-G21 and G22.
- Solar and blackout fabrics feature options that are GREENGUARD Gold certified and FR rated NFPA 701.
- Fabric options also include ShadeDefense Antimicrobial Protection, our antibacterial and antifungal technology that meets ASTM G21 and ASTM E2180 test methods.
Options
- An optional 5″ pocket with lip provides ceiling tile support, or without lip provides a clean appearance in an exposed application. Also, optional 7 5/8″ pocket for dual shades.
- Closure plates and closure mounts with tile support or without tile support (lip)
- Side, sill, and center channels
- Dual and coupled shades
- External fabric-wrapped hem bar
- Plastic bead chain
Tubes
- Tube sizes include 1-1/2″, 2″, and 2-1/2″ diameters.
- Tubes are extruded aluminum engineered with a channel to accept fabric spline.
- Tube diameters and wall thickness provide optimal performance and minimal deflection. (Dimensions are determined by manufacturer based on fabric selection and shade size.)
- The TrueTrack Spline keeps fabric straight on tube, minimizing fabric tracking and creasing. Our unique co-extruded spline is heat-welded to the fabric, providing a secure attachment to the tube while allowing easy removal of the fabric band.
Fascia
- 3″ and 4″ fascia front and back
- 7-5/8″ dual shade fascia
- Reverse roll fascia
Brackets
- Color coordinated brackets blend seamlessly with fascia, unlike visible zinc-plated brackets.
- Shades are easy for installer to level, eliminating fabric tracking and reducing callbacks.
- Bracket covers are optional. R8 brackets are optional. No bracket covers for R16 or R24 non fascia brackets.
- Installation brackets are 16-gauge, corrosion-resistant, stamped steel, and can accommodate overhead, side, and face mounting.
- Brackets are powder-coated and available in white, vanilla, gray, or black.
- Fascia brackets are white, vanilla, gray or black non fascia brackets are white or black only.
- Optional dual shade brackets hold two shades in one bracket assembly. Coupled shades are connected with a linked bracket mechanism.
