Introducing Intercept Stainless Sealant Effectiveness & Gas Retention.
The sealant provides the moisture vapor barrier for the I.G. unit. The longer the transmission path, the slower the rate that moisture will travel into the unit through the seal. STAINLESS steel is impervious to gas transmission, improving gas retention and maximizing the insulation value of your window over time.
Unique "U-Channel" design allows superior flexibility with no load on sealant. Spacer can accompany glass as it expands and contracts.
U-Value (U)
Ratings typically fall between 0.20 and 1.20. The lower the U-Factor, the better a product is at keeping the heat in the home or building.
Condensation Resistance (C)
This measures the performance level of a window/glazing system to help eliminate possible condensation. The higher the number, the better the window is at blocking condensation.
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (S)
Refers to the amount of sunlight passing through a window as heat. The lower the rating, the better the window performs at reducing costs in the summer. Between 0-1.
Visible Transmission (VT)
Measures how much light comes through a product. VT is expressed as a number between 0 and 1. The higher the VT, the higher the potential for daylighting.
