PU-C1 + PU-C2 models

  • PU-C1 grey (3.5M)
  • PU-C2 grey (3.5M)

Available models and sizes as currently listed in the B2B shop. Non-standard versions are made to order.

In brief

  • PU-C1 and PU-C2 have space for a heating cable in their cross-section, without a magnetic slot.
  • The cross-section is extruded from rigid PVC, in the catalogue grey.
  • Sections of a different length and other colours are made to order.
  • The absence of a magnet slot simplifies the cross-section where the gasket works at a different point on the frame.

Profile – PU-C1 + PU-C2 – how to choose the right one

PU-C1 and PU-C2 are a grey set of rigid PVC body profiles, with a chamber for a heating cable. Unlike profiles from the hundred-series families, this cross-section has no slot for a magnetic insert.

This division of tasks makes sense in constructions where the gasket is set into the door leaf, and the body profile is responsible only for heating the frame and separating the two sides. The cross-section is then simpler and assembly faster, since there's no need to check that the magnetic insert sits evenly along its whole length.

The profile also works well where it's not the door's contact line being heated, but a section of the structure exposed to condensation – for example, a bottom beam under a room, or a mullion between two rooms.

Where a thermal bridge comes from and how to break it – we explained it in the selection guide for this category.

Where it works

  • Frames where the magnetic gasket sits on the door side
  • Heating a mullion between two rooms
  • Bottom beams and thresholds collecting condensation
  • Constructions requiring a simple cross-section with one channel

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Ask a question
Can a magnetic insert be added to this profile?

The cross-section has no slot for it, so the magnet needs to be planned on the door side, or a profile from the family prepared for the insert should be chosen instead.

What is the channel for if there's no gasket here?

For heating the structural element itself. It heats not only the door's contact line, but also spots on the housing where condensation would otherwise form.

Are PU-C1 and PU-C2 ordered separately?

The catalogue lists them as a set, since the cross-section is made up of both parts. A single symbol is usually ordered only to replace a damaged section.
