Thermal Insulated Lateral Pressing Airtight Aluminium Exterior Sliding Window

Product Description:

Lateral pressing airtight aluminium sliding window is a specific type of sliding window designed to achieve a high level of air and weather sealing. Unlike a traditional sliding window, which relies on brushes or simple gaskets, this system uses a mechanism to press the moving sash laterally (sideways) against the fixed frame. This creates a much tighter seal when the window is closed and locked.

The key to a lateral pressing window's airtightness is its unique hardware and sealing system. While traditional sliding windows are always in a sliding track, this type of window often has a multi-point locking mechanism that performs two actions in sequence:

1. Lateral Movement: When you turn the handle or operate the locking lever, the hardware engages, pushing the sliding sash away from the sliding track and into a compressed position against the window frame.
2. Compression of Gaskets: This lateral movement compresses a special type of gasket (such as a bubble or flipper gasket) between the sash and the frame. This compression is what creates the airtight and watertight seal.

Advantages:

1. Superior Airtightness: The compression seal significantly reduces air and water infiltration, making the window highly energy-efficient and resistant to drafts.
2. Excellent Sound Insulation: The tight seal also provides a significant improvement in sound reduction compared to traditional sliding windows.
3. Enhanced Security: Multi-point locking makes it much more difficult to pry open the window from the outside.
4. Durability and Longevity: The compressed gaskets are less prone to wear and tear from constant sliding friction, extending their lifespan.
