KeraTwin® system

Omegaprofile

Ideal for:

  • Stand-alone construction and lightweight walls
  • Horizontal & Über-Kopf-Montage
  • Free panel installation in grid

 

Advantages at a glance:

  • No base profile required: Direct fastening to horizontal support rails
  • Flexible profile positioning: Independent of stand spacing – greater planning freedom
  • Tool-free panel installation: Easy to hang using retaining grooves
  • Safe and quiet: pressure spring prevents rattling
  • Hanging security: Additional protection against unwanted removal of the panels

 

Typical areas of application:

  • Lightweight walls, drywall, sandwich panels
  • Ideal for pre-ventilated rear-ventilated facades
  • Horizontal, bonded, overhead

Installation principle – how it works':

  • Install support rails:
    Attach horizontally to the wall construction

  • Install vertical omega profiles:
    Grid freely selectable, independent of stand spacing

  • Hanging facade panels:
    Hanging into the profile without tools via retaining grooves

  • Securing:
    With joint profile or spacer – for permanent position fixing

Installation instructions

The substructure must be installed in accordance with a project-specific structural analysis. The general building authority approval Z-10.3-844 serves as a basis.

  • The profiles of the base substructure must be installed plumb and flush (e.g., hat or Z-profile).
  • The K20 omega profiles (item nos. 624, 627, 633) must be aligned horizontally with precision and fastened using a connecting agent in accordance with the structural analysis through the pre-punched slots at the edge (note the fixed and sliding point design!).
  • The horizontal spacing between the rails must correspond to the length grid of the panels.
  • The length of the vertical profiles must be divisible by the panel format and should not exceed one floor height.
  • The profile must not be located behind a panel.
  • For open vertical joints, one spacer (item no. 645) is inserted into a central pull hole in each panel.
  • For closed vertical joints, the joint profile (item no. 640 for single-span beams – joint plug-in profile item no. 647 for single-span beams with cantilever arms) must be used.

Please note: The use of silicone rubbers should generally be avoided, as silicone oils migrate and create sticky, dirt-binding surfaces. Therefore, please only use the recommended system components or consult with us regarding the planned products before processing. The usual final cleaning of the building is still required. A warranty for the KeraTwin® K20 system within the scope of general building approval No. Z-10.3-844 only applies when using the system components shown on these pages.
