ThermGard-R aluminium glazing bars for timber rafters provide the ideal combination of the natural beauty and warmth of timber inside a weather-tight, maintenance free external finish. The carrier rail features integral drainage channels to ensure in the unlikely event that water penetrates the capping and high-performance gaskets, it is safely transported to the outside of the building. A continuous screw on pressure plate with provides outstanding glass retention and a choice of decorative external covers are available to provide either contemporary glass roof appearance or a more traditional heritage style for roof lanterns on period buildings.

Features and benefits:
- System incorporates a thermal break design to minimize the risk of condensation.
