Delete if not required.

A. System OS2 as manufactured by Brombal USA and distributed exclusively by Steel Windows and Doors USA.

1. OS2 system is equipped with a 1-13/16 inches (46 mm) lateral and a 2-7/16 inches (62 mm) central section, made with thermal break profiles - integrated with a complete range of system accessories - as required for the range of openings scheduled or indicated.

a. Thermally insulated integrated system of profiles, accessories and gaskets with visible section of 46 mm (lateral section) and 62 mm (central section) suitable for rectangular, trapezoidal, arched shaped double leafed doors and windows for door and window with or without fixed side light.

b. The metal profiles that make up the system shall be 15/10 mm thick and are obtained from the cold-forming of the coils in the materials specified.

c. The thermal break connection inside the section shall be high density polyurethane resin, injected at high pressure. The connection is continuous, without interruptions, guaranteeing maximum resilience to torsional and bending stress.

d. The assembly of the frame profiles shall be connected by welding together the sections and ground down neatly and finished, or by combining mechanical assembly and internal welding that does not require the retouching of the finish.
