Description

The AliRail Vertical Infill Plate-Fix 0.74kN option is a balustrade system with aluminium vertical spindle infills, available in AliDeck's standard RAL colours and with LED lighting options. Compatible with all AliDeck Decking, Drainage, and Joist Systems and all AliClad Soffit Cladding Systems.


Load tested in accordance with BS 6180:2011 (0.74kN/m horizontal line load, 0.5kN infill point load, 1.0kN/m² infill distributed load).


Fixed to the front of the steel, the AliRail Vertical Infill plate-fix option allows for fewer connections into the steelwork and therefore less drilling is required.


This fixing option for AliDeck's external metal balustrades achieves the residential balcony loading requirements, achieving the 0.74kN/m horizontal line load performance under test conditions.


The simplified connection detail means that installation is quick and easy, saving a considerable amount of time on-site or at the balcony manufacturer’s factory.

  • Fire resistant: A2-s1, d0.
  • Loading performance: Horizontal line load: 0.74kN/m; Infill point load: 0.5kN/m; Infill distributed load: 1.0kN/m².

Surface finish

Qualicoat powder-coated to EN ISO 6272/ ASTM D2794, EN ISO 1519, Machu test, Qualicoat 2.4.1, Qualicoat 2.18, ISO 9227, EN ISO 3231, EN ISO 11341, EN ISO 20810, EN ISO 12206-1, EN ISO 6270-2.

Guidance for specification option:

  • Impact test - with an energy of 2.5 Km to ensure that the coating adheres to the substrate to EN ISO 6272 / ASTM D2794.
  • Bend test - on 5 mm mandrel to ensure adhesion after bending to EN ISO 1519.
  • Machu Test (accelerated corrosion test) - in a solution made up of sodium chloride acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide at 37 degrees C. Duration 48 hours.
  • Qualicoat 2.4.1 - cross hatch cuts are made at 2 mm spacings with one being at 90 degrees to the other cut, tape is then applied and left for 2 minutes and removed to check for adhesion of paint (EN ISO 2409:2013).
  • Qualicoat 2.18 - sawing and drilling test to ensure no flaking after cutting (using sharp tools).
  • Acid salt spray test - ISO 9227.
  • EN ISO 3231 - Resistance to humid atmospheres containing Sulphur Dioxide.
  • EN ISO 11341 - Accelerated weathering test.
  • EN ISO 20810 - Natural weathering test (Florida Test) (Carried out on Powder Type).
  • N ISO 12206-1 - Resistance to mortar (Carried out on powder type).
