Valuframe - The Economy Aluminium Profile System.

Panel Strips and Seals.

The most common way to secure panels into the frame with Valuframe is to use panel strips and seals. From the choice of the plastic panel strip and the rubber panel seal, most customers go for the first option. Each profile series has it's own panel strips and seals because the aluminium profile slots are different widths. It's not recommended to fit panel materials into the slot without these seals because they reduce vibration damage and noise, make a snug fit for the panel material and also prevent panel materials from coming into contact with the aluminium extrusion slot wall. Also, by reducing the width of the slot, you will normally reduce the cost of the panel material.

The most popular reducing method uses the plastic panel strips. These strips not only reduce the slot width, but they can also be reversed to close off the slot if required. Sold in 2M lengths, a variety of colours are available. 

 

The rubber sealing strips are less popular but no less efficient. They are slightly cheaper to buy than the panel strips and come in a continuous length.


Panel strips Series 5

The 2m long slot filler strip or channel reducer reduces width of the slot from 5mm to between 1-3mm. It’s used for inserting panel materials into the slot but it also doubles as a cover for the slot when reversed.

Panel strips Series 8 & 8X30

This 2M long slot filler strip or channel reducer reduces width of the slot from 8mm to between 4-6mm. In series 8 there are a few more colours of strip available, as sometimes these colours are used to indicate a safety guard, a removable panel or as a branding indicator.
