glass canopies

glass canopies
Canopies fit for street furniture, with transparent glass or custom-made serigraphy.
Glass panels, once perforated and treated, can be single or double, ever tempered in order to be resistant against strong stresses around the holes.
Ball joints make glass fixed to the frame; they are of many sorts, as Faraone's catalogue shows, but all are made of AISI 316 stainless steel and fit countersunk or straight glass holes.
Ball joint heads are articulated in order to allow the glass its expansion and free movement. They are allocated into the glass and locked by a threaded ring nut.
Stainless steel parts in bolts never touch directly the glass but are insulated by nylon or aluminium washers or/and bushings.
Ball joints for insulating glass must be equipped with an appropriate aluminium bushing, put in between two glass panels before coupling. The bushing is milled on surfaces getting in touch with glass; groove coming from milling
have to be insulated with a coat of silicone or butyl.
Moreover, once the glass panels are coupled, the bushing is definitively sealed to wholly insulate the hole from the inside of glass.
After fixing ball joints into the glass panel, this one is mounted on the structure with spiders by inserting ball joints into their slots and fixing them by bolts.
B) SUITABLE FOR NON-PERFORATED GLASS
If glass holes are not provided, special ball joints let the glass to rest into its site, to lodge the whole glazing thickness, insulated by proper gaskets. They are all made of AISI 316 stainless steel in different sizes according to the glass thickness, such as J02 and J01
items in Faraone's catalogue. The required glass can only be tempered or stratified.
