RAILING SYSTEMS • TRADITIONAL RAILING SYSTEMPANELGRIP DRY GLAZE SYSTEM - Patent PendingThe PanelGrip System utilizes a unique locking mechanism of high-strength aluminum and PVC isolatorscombined with a specially designed aluminum shoe moulding. When assembled with 1/2” or 3/4” tempered orlaminated glass, PanelGrip enables the installer to fabricate a structural glass railing system with significantreductions in labor and freight costs.PANELGRIP INSTALLATION:1. Plumbing PanelGriP Shoe MouldingBefore completing attachment of PanelGrip Shoe Mouldingto substrate – in multi-panel railings – take all necessarysteps to assure that the mounted shoe is adjusted such that theinside channel of the shoe it is plumb to +/- 1/8” at an extendedheight of 42”. Spend the time required to plumb the shoe to thistolerance since the glass will only be as plumb as the shoe.One method for plumbing the shoe is the Plumbing Bar Kit.2. CLEAR THE PANELGRIP BASE SHOE OF ALL DEBRIS.3. PlACE iSOLATORSPlace the PanelGrip Plastic Isolators into the Shoe Moulding.Space Plastic Isolators a maximum of 14” on center with amaximum of 4” in from the left and right edges of each panel – 4isolators per 4 foot panel.4. PLACE GLASSPlace the glass atop the Plastic Isolators inthe Shoe Moulding. PanelGrip will work withnominal 1/2” and 3/4” glass.Warning: With multi-panel railings, do not line up the edgeof a panel with the end of the shoe – place the panels so thatthey Span PanelGrip Shoe Moulding butt joints to assistin alignment.5. iNSERT pANELgRIPHave someone hold the panel in place while you insert thealuminum PanelGrip mechanism into place on the oppositeside of the glass in alignment with the Plastic Isolators. Makesure that the black, plastic pad on the PanelGrip is facingthe glass.6. tIGHTEN pANELgRIPUsing the 3/16” hex head wrench provided, tighten the capscrew on the PanelGrip mechanism. While tightening, theplastic pad will break away from the aluminum as the unitexpands.7. cONFIRM ALIGNMENT AND TIGHTENConfirm alignment and make adjustments prior to final tighteningwhich will compress and lock the panel into place.Remember, PanelGrip is self-centering and self- plumbing.Make sure you have properly plumbed the shoe as noted inStep 1.Once you have confirmed position, use the 3/16” hex headwrench to make the PanelGrip Cap Screw snug-tight, thencontinue tightening for one quarter turn – 10-15 ft/lbs of torque.Repeat on all other PanelGrip units to secure the panel inposition.8. Seal top of shoeOnce glass is properly positioned, seal gap at the top of thePanelGrip Shoe Moulding using one of the two Gasket stylesnoted below. Spray glass cleaner onto glass to facilitate insertionof gaskets.• V50-0008 is used without cladding• V50-0005 is taped to the underside of the top lip ofthe cladding.9. reMOVAL OF GLASSShould you need to remove a panel, this can be done simply byloosening the PanelGrip Cap Screw.Note: The Cap Screw included in the PanelGrip contains apressure-sensitive locking compound that insures the screwremains tight over time and through cyclic loading. Eachinsertion and removal cycle diminishes its locking capacity.Individual results will vary but four cycles is the typical lifespan of the compound.All drawings shown in inches0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8See Metric Converter, page 60Nationwide Supplier of <strong>Railing</strong> Systems & Components7
