IG Aluminum Spacer with Butyl Tape

1. Product Overview

Introduction:
The Insulated Glass Butyl-Coated Aluminum Spacer Bar is a high-performance material used in insulated glass systems. Made of aluminum alloy as the primary material, the spacer bar is coated with a layer of butyl rubber. This design enhances the sealing and waterproofing properties of the spacer bar, ensuring the stability of the insulated glass structure. It is widely used in modern buildings, energy-efficient windows, and high-performance glazing systems.

Applications:

• Exterior windows and glass curtain walls for commercial and residential buildings

• Energy-efficient windows and thermal insulating glass

• Glass used in buildings under extreme climate conditions

• Solar photovoltaic modules and other glass components

Product Features:

• Butyl Rubber Coating Technology: The aluminum spacer bar is coated with butyl rubber, providing strong sealing to prevent moisture and air penetration.

• Aluminum Alloy Base Material: The spacer bar is made from high-quality aluminum alloys that provide corrosion resistance and weathering durability, ensuring long-term stability.

• Precision Manufacturing Process: The butyl rubber is evenly applied to the aluminum spacer bar, ensuring optimal sealing between the spacer bar and the glass.

2. Product Specifications and Parameters

Common Specifications:

• Thickness: 0.2mm to 0.5mm, customizable based on needs.

• Width: 0.4mm to 40mm, accommodating different glass thicknesses and application requirements.

• Standard Length: 5 meters, with custom lengths available upon request to meet specific project needs.

Butyl Rubber Characteristics:

• Adhesion Strength: The butyl rubber coating provides excellent adhesion, ensuring a strong bond between the spacer bar and the glass frame.

• Weather Resistance: The butyl rubber maintains its performance even under high temperatures, low temperatures, and UV exposure, extending the lifespan of the seal.

• Sealing Performance: The butyl rubber effectively isolates the spacer bar from external environmental factors, reducing air circulation and moisture penetration inside the glass, improving insulation and soundproofing.

Standards and Certifications:

• ISO 9001 Certification: Meets international quality management standards, ensuring consistent product quality across batches.

• CE Certification: Complies with European safety and environmental standards.

• Environmental Certification: The aluminum spacer bar is 100% recyclable, and the butyl rubber is non-toxic, meeting green building and environmental standards.

3. Product Advantages

• Butyl Rubber Coating Advantages:
  The butyl rubber coating significantly enhances the sealing capabilities of the spacer bar, improving the airtightness and watertightness of the insulated glass, preventing moisture ingress and fogging inside the glass.
  The butyl rubber coating is UV-resistant and capable of withstanding both high and low temperatures, extending the service life of the glass.

• Energy Efficiency:
  The butyl-coated aluminum spacer bar reduces heat loss, improving the thermal insulation properties of the insulated glass and reducing energy consumption. This product is ideal for energy-efficient buildings and green construction projects.

• Moisture and Water Resistance:
  The butyl rubber provides additional waterproofing protection, preventing moisture from entering the gap between the aluminum spacer bar and the glass frame, effectively reducing the risk of glass condensation and moisture-related issues.

• Environmental Friendliness:
  Both the aluminum spacer bar and the butyl rubber comply with environmental standards. The aluminum is 100% recyclable, and the butyl rubber contains no harmful chemicals, making the product a sustainable option for green building projects.

4. Manufacturing Process

Butyl Rubber Coating Process:
The butyl rubber is applied using advanced automated coating technology, ensuring even distribution and uniformity of the sealing layer. This prevents issues like peeling or wrinkling of the rubber.

Quality Control:
We maintain strict quality control throughout the entire manufacturing process, from raw material selection to final product inspection. Each spacer bar undergoes strength testing, weather resistance testing, and adhesion testing to ensure its long-term reliability.

Testing Standards:
All aluminum spacer bars are subjected to tensile tests, sealing performance tests, weather resistance, and aging tests to ensure they can withstand extreme environmental conditions and perform reliably over time.

5. Installation and Usage Guidelines

Installation Steps:

1. Cut the aluminum spacer bar to the appropriate length based on the dimensions of the insulated glass.

2. Press the butyl-coated aluminum spacer bar tightly against the glass frame, ensuring a seamless bond between the spacer bar and the glass.

3. Use insertion pins to secure the spacer bar, ensuring a firm connection between the spacer bar and the glass frame.

4. After installation, inspect the connection between the spacer bar and the glass to ensure there are no leaks.

Precautions:

• Take care not to damage the surface of the spacer bar during installation, particularly the integrity of the butyl rubber coating, as this may affect the sealing performance.

• If installing in a humid or extreme temperature environment, ensure the butyl rubber maintains its adhesion strength.

Maintenance and Care:

• Regularly inspect the sealing performance of the spacer bar and repair or replace any damaged parts.

• Clean the spacer bar with a mild, neutral detergent, avoiding harsh acids or bases that may damage the material.
