Leading the way in design and engineering
Why Slant/Fin is preferred by heating experts—
Slant/Fin leads the industry with baseboard heating innovations. Fingertip control dampers, hinged telescopic accessories, plastic expansion cradles and Zip-strip cartons are all
Slant/Fin firsts. From die formed steel brackets to durable baked enamel finish, the quality you see in Slant/Fin baseboard reflects our commitment to excellence.
Experts agree that Slant/Fin leads the way in variety, quality and ease of installation.

1. High strength support brackets. Slant/Fin’s
heavy-gauge steel support bracket is shaped by
a series of progressive die strikes which multi-
ply the strength of the metal alone. The bracket
becomes a powerful “spine” for the entire unit,
holding cover, element and damper vane
securely in place. Brackets can’t pop out of
place, yet may be slid laterally for installation
convenience. Support wedge at top of bracket
reinforces top panel against damage. Half-
moon cutout provides room for return line.
2. Super-strong enclosure won’t go out of
shape under rough abuse or even when
used as a step by children. The super
strong Slant/Fin enclosure holds its shape
through installation and years of use.
Prime, cold-rolled, rephosphorized, heavy-
gauge, galvanized steel is formed into rigid
front panel and one-piece bottom, back
and top panel. Channels formed along top
and bottom edge of front panel add extra
structural strength.
3. Rust resistant galvanized steel is stan-
dard on all Fine/Line 30 baseboard. The
special alloys and rust inhibitor finish used
in making Fine/Line 30 ensure that the
enclosures will maintain their like-new
beauty, even in high moisture areas such
as bathrooms, basements and laundry
rooms. No other residential baseboard
offers this long lasting protection.
Wall streakage eliminated. Top panel and damper form a shield to keep dust from settling into baseboard interior, and to deflect
heated air away from the wall, into the room. Back panel has no holes or slits to leak air behind the back of the baseboard causing
wall streakage.
Engineered for Excellence.
4. Room control damper helps control indi-
vidual room temperature. Slant/Fin’s unique
pivot and damper mounting assembly pro-
vide the straightest, most responsive
damper available. Factory assembled.
Holds any setting from fully open to fully
closed or any setting in-between. Ordinary
baseboard dampers may leave large
spaces even when closed. The Slant/Fin
damper, when closed, effectively reduces
convection air flow.
5. High performance heating element.
Maximum heat output. Fins won’t loosen.
Double bent aluminum fins pack extra
heating surface in a slimmer enclosure.
Interlocking tongue-and-groove collars per-
manently bond fins to each other and to the
tubing. Stops “pings and clicks”. Tight bond
assures maximum heat-transfer efficiency.
End fins are of plated steel for extra
ruggedness.
6. No-noise expansion cradles.
Self-adjusting velvet smooth expansion
cradles eliminate noisy metal-to-metal con-
tact with bracket and enclosure. Cradle
slides silently over support bracket as heat-
ing element expands and contracts.
