METALCRAFT FRAIL SYSTEM

Frails
External mounted frails are light yet incredibly strong. With high quality T6 aluminium extrusions the glass is supported in transit by raised base blocks. All frails have front and rear stops, with the front stops being standardised at 800mm high.

Securing Poles
All glass-carrying frails include a complete set of load-securing poles. These sprung retaining poles feature non-marking sliding blocks and optional adjustable scissor clamps, which lock into slotted retaining blocks at intervals of up to 750 mm.

Polymer Protection
Glass is protected from transit rub with Metalcraft’s unique non marking insert polymer which are used on the base blocks, verticals and horizontal sections.
