Silicone foam spacer
A flexible, silicone foam spacer product, Super Spacer provides the maximum perimeter insulation for sealed glazing units and prevents condensation. Desiccant-filled with pre-applied side adhesive, the structural foam spacer significantly simplifies insulating glass production, say officials. Featuring a vapor barrier backing, the product must be used in combination with conventional IG sealants such as hot melt butyl, polyurethane and solvent-free polysulfide. Dual seal equivalent sealants may also be used.

Warm-edge spacer
Quanex’s Super Spacer warm-edge technology is used in energy-efficient window designs in residential and commercial applications. Super Spacer is a premium energy-efficient and sustainable solution for high-volume production of dual- and triple-pane insulating glass. A true dual-seal warm-edge spacer line, Super Spacer products use a high-performance acrylic adhesive for their structural seal, backed by a moisture vapor seal. Super Spacer offers energy efficiency, sustainability, and has demonstrated proof of performance, reliability and thermal excellence, say officials.

Warm-edge spacer system
H.B. Fuller’s Ködispace 4SG warm-edge spacer system is the premier solution for both commercial and residential applications, say officials. The product’s formulation chemically bonds to glass and silicone secondary sealant. There is no spacer migration, and it has a higher temperature stability than standard insulating glass with polyisobutylene, in addition to an increased resistance to incompatible glazing conditions, say officials. The product is currently the only reactive thermoplastic spacer system available, officials say.

Thermal break profiles
Ensinger - insulbar thermal break profiles are a vital component of modern window, door or façade systems made of metal. They eliminate thermal bridging between interior and exterior surfaces, improving overall performance of the system and reducing energy loss, according to company officials. The insulating profiles are available in many shapes, sizes and materials to meet even the most complex requirements.

Spacer system
GED introduced the latest in its Intercept warm-edge spacer systems, the Intercept SureLock. The system offers three key benefits for manufacturers; a positive, secure lock when folding spacers, making handling easier and quicker; extreme rigidity for manufacturing large spacers, allowing for better placement; and automation-ready capabilities, for future spacer system options.
