<strong>GIESSE</strong> TECH PIVOT<br />

THE HIGH PERFORMANCE PIVOT THAT'S QUICK AND EASY TO INSTALL<br />

The TECH pivot is a big advance in Giesse technology<br />

- the perfect combination of modern<br />

styling, robust construction and speed of installation.<br />

The TECH pivot features a robust construction<br />

in die-cast zamak for loads up to 120 kg when<br />

installed on horizontal pivots and 100 kg on<br />

vertical pivots. It is thus the ideal pivot for windows<br />

makers making large-sized windows<br />

with guaranteed safety.<br />

The TECH pivot is designed for more than<br />

25,000 open/close cycles - making it one of<br />

the highest performance units currently available.<br />

The TECH pivot is equipped with an adjustable<br />

force setting to prevent the window being<br />

slammed shut by sudden gusts of wind.<br />

The open/close force setting can be adjusted<br />

with a simple grub screw. And the unit's<br />

rounded shape gives it a modern styling in line<br />

with the most recent trends in de sign.<br />

Advantages<br />

120<br />

Kg<br />

Load bearing capacity 120 kg<br />

The TECH pivot can support loads<br />

of up to 120 kg when installed on<br />

horizontal pivots and 60 kg on<br />

vertical pivots, thus enabling the<br />

windows maker to make largesized<br />

installations with guaranteed<br />

safety.<br />

Design<br />

The design of the TECH pivot is<br />

unique among competing<br />

products, since it employs the<br />

rounded forms typical of diecasting,<br />

without the sharp corners<br />

and edges typical of products<br />

machined from extruded aluminium<br />

bar.<br />

25.000<br />

Durability to CEN/TS 13126-92004<br />

The TECH pivot owes its great<br />

robustness to the use of die-cast<br />

zamak, and is designed to resist<br />

more than 25,000 open/close<br />

cycles, thus achieving the<br />

maximum durability rating (5) of the<br />

CEN/TS 13126-9:2004 technical<br />

specification.<br />

Locks open at 30°<br />

The TECH pivot locks open at 30°.<br />

This means that the window's<br />

aperture is always limited, as a<br />

security feature: the window<br />

cannot be opened further without<br />

holding down a button mounted on<br />

the side of the pivot. The lock is<br />

mounted on one of the two pivotes<br />

in the installed pair.<br />

Automatic lock at 180°<br />

When the window is opened to<br />

180° to clean the outer pane, the<br />

TECH pivot automatically locks to<br />

this position.<br />

Simply press the button on the side<br />

of the pivot to release the locking<br />

mechanism and close the window.<br />

Quick installation and mounting<br />

The TECH pivot is quick and easy<br />

to install to the frame profile, and<br />

allows the window to be installed<br />

even on site, thanks to its special<br />

mounting plates.<br />

Perimetrical locking Kit<br />

The kit provides 3 locking points<br />

for centre-hung windows (one on<br />

handle side plus two on pivot<br />

sides) and is suitable for both<br />

horizontal and vertical centre-hung<br />

windows.<br />
