Features & Components
Headrail
- Smallest headrail fits windows or doors with minimal depth.
- Headrail is 1" high x 1" wide x .025" thick U-shaped steel.
- The steel finishing process includes phosphate treatment for corrosion resistance, a chrome-free sealer, a low hazardous air pollutants (HAP) urethane primer, and a topcoat of low HAP polyester-baked enamel.
Bottomrail
- Bottomrail is a tubular shape made of phosphate-treated steel for corrosion resistance and finished with a chrome-free sealer, low HAP urethane primer, and a topcoat of low HAP polyester-baked enamel.
- Bottomrail measures .025" thick.
Controls
- Heavy-duty wand tilt and cord lift are standard.
- Tilter is made of injection-molded thermoplastics for smooth, low-friction operation and incorporates a disengaging clutch mechanism to prevent damage due to over-tilting.
- Tilt rod is electro-zinc coated solid steel measuring ¼" square.
- Tilt wand is clear polycarbonate with a hexagonal cross section measuring approximately ¼" diameter, and is attached to the tilter shaft with a spring clip for easy removal.
- Cordlock is a snap-in design made of durable, high-impact nylon with a stainless steel wear guard incorporating a floating, shaft-type locking pin.
- The cordlock design provides a crash-proof safety feature that locks the blinds automatically upon release of the lift cord.
- Drum and cradles are made of low-friction thermoplastic and are provided for each ladder.
Slats
- Slats are 5000 Series cold-rolled aluminum containing the maximum allowable recycled content to produce a high-strength and corrosion-resistant, flexible product.
- Slats are nominally 1/2" wide x .006" thick and processed to provide a smooth, hard, less porous surface, which includes being treated with a topcoat of polyester-baked enamel.
- Antistatic performance repels dust.
- Low HAP, low VOC paint process reduces emissions.
- Slats meet NFPA 701.
- Braided ladder is made of 100% polyester yarn, incorporating two extra-strength rungs per ladder for slat support. Standard ladder spacing is 12.5mm.
