Applications

Aluminum

Novopeldaño® 4 aluminum is a prole designed to be placed as a stair nosing. Its striated face side

helps to fulll with the DB-SUA (Basic Document of Security in usage and Accessibility) from CTE

(Spanish Technical Building Code) because improves the value of slip resistance of the oor where it

is installed.

The Technical Guide of Accessibility in building 2001, also recommends the installation of visual and

tactile elements at the beginning and the ending of stairs to favor the accessibility of people with

reduced visibility.

Novopeldaño® 4 aluminum is ideal for public areas such as airports, hotels, hospitals, etc. and for its

installation in homes. Its easiness of placement, without need of work, makes it specially indicated for

reform works and facilities improvements.

Novopeldaño® 4 is a prole made by extrusion of aluminium. These proles have been anodized,

improving mainly by this proccess their corrosion and mechanical resistance and their appearance..

The anodized applied, has the quality seal “Qualanod” which guarantees the quality of the process and

the resulting proles. This seal regulates several tests: appearance and color, thickness measurements,

sealing and impregnation control, abrasion resistance, lightfastness, acetic saline chamber and nitric

acid immersion.

The aluminium is a material with excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight,

tough, ductile, malleable and highly durable.

TECHNICAL FILE Novopeldaño® 4 Aluminum Installation 1. Spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the surface of the riser. 2. Place the tile on the riser and press to get an optimal adherence. 3. Then, spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the tread and align the profile on its vertex so it rests on the riser (Do not let overhang, the leverage may remove the step and the tiles). Then press so the thin-set mortar could pass through the mechanized holes of the anchoring wing.
