How to Install Window Friction Stay
Firstly, let's talk about the selection of window friction stay
The selection of window friction stay is determined according to the size of the window and the weight of the window:
1. Requirements for sliding braces ≥ the weight of the window sash (the weight of the window sash profile + the weight of the glass) × safety factor 1.3.
2. The length specification of the sliding brace is selected: under normal circumstances, it is 2/3 of the window width, and when the window is lighter, it can be 1/2. When the sliding support is selected for the upper-hung window, the sliding support selected is generally 1/2 of the height of the window.
3. According to the actual situation, select the sliding support that meets the above conditions at the same time. When selecting, you can check the sliding support specifications and corresponding lengths in the sliding support specification table.
Secondly, Here would be the Installation steps of window friction stays:
1. The sliding support of the window must be tightly connected with the window sash and the window frame, and must not be moved lightly. All screw holes must be screwed with screws or screws, and one less will affect the load-bearing of the sliding support.
2. M5×8 stainless steel countersunk head screws or ST4.2/4.8×12 stainless steel self-tapping pan head screws are used to fasten the sliding brace.
3. Use screws or screws reasonably according to the actual situation. SIHAI Hardware recommends that countersunk head screws must be used in places with countersunk holes; pan head screws should be used in chutes or places without countersunk holes. The support is firm and reliable after installation.
4. When installing widnow hinges, ensure that the distance between the sash and sash is the stacking height of the sliding braces, generally 16.5~17 mm. Different series and specifications have different stacking heights. For the specific technical parameters, see the sliding brace series and the actual product. .
The installation method of the window friction stays will be shared today. In addition, the friction stay needs regular maintenance. The bottom groove of the friction stay should avoid hard debris such as sand, cement, lime, acid and alkali corrosion and too much dust. Wait, this will cause the window switch to be unsmooth, and some lubricating oil should be added to the sliding support regularly.
