Galaxy 108 Inwards Casement Tilt and Turn Window
Engineered to withstand severe weather and enhance security, our Heavy-Duty Aluminum Impact Casement Windows for Residences Galaxy 108 feature robust aluminum frames and impact-resistant glazing, meeting Miami-Dade County hurricane standards (TAS 201-203). Ideal for coastal homes and high-risk areas, these windows deliver superior protection against windborne debris, burglary, and thermal heat loss, without compromising on style.
Impact-Resistant Design:
6mm laminated glass with interlayer PVB film absorbs 90% of impact energy, passing 90mph debris impact tests (AAMA 501.6).
Reinforced 6063-T6 aluminum frame (tensile strength 260MPa) with built-in steel reinforcements in critical load-bearing areas.
Thermal & Acoustic Performance:
Double-glazed units (6mm + 12mm air gap + 6mm) with Low-E coating achieve U-value 1.4 W/m²K and noise reduction 32dB.
Polyamide thermal breaks (14mm thickness) reduce heat transfer by 65%, suitable for both hot and cold climates.
Security Enhancements:
Multi-point locking system (3 stainless steel bolts per window) with anti-jimmy pins, achieving PAS 24:2016 security certification.
Tamper-resistant hinges (load capacity 150kg) with removable pins only accessible from the interior.
Weathertight Construction:
EPDM rubber gaskets and sloped sill design (5° angle) prevent water ingress during 200mph wind gusts (EN 12211 Class 9).
Anodized aluminum finish (AA25) resists salt spray (1000h ASTM B117) and UV fading, ideal for coastal environments.
Coastal Homes: Protects against hurricane-force winds (up to Category 5) and saltwater corrosion in FL, Caribbean, and Gulf Coast regions.
High-Security Properties: Used in luxury apartments, banks, and government buildings, combining impact resistance with burglary deterrence.
Extreme Climate Residences: Suitable for areas with high wind, heavy rain, or wildfire risks, with optional fire-resistant glazing upgrades.
Q: Do these windows require special installation?
A: Yes, professional installers certified in impact window installation (ICC-ES AC283) are recommended to ensure compliance with local building codes.
Q: Can the glass be repaired if cracked?
A: The laminated glass may show cracks but will remain intact due to the PVB interlayer; full replacement is recommended for damaged units.
Q: What is the warranty for impact resistance?
A: We offer a 10-year warranty on glass integrity and a 20-year warranty on frame corrosion resistance, backed by third-party test reports.
