Z
ip-Strip carton zips open in seconds.
Baseboard comes out of the carton fully
assembled, ready to nail. No jigsaw puzzle
of parts. No cutting to fit.
Slant/Fin's T-shot nailer reaches through the
damper opening to drive a nail high up on the
back panel where it offers the most support. You
don't even have to remove the front panel to nail
up the baseboard. Or use power drill with self-
tapping screws.
Heating contractor: Complete your baseboard
installations with less effort and less time.
Fine/Line 30 is designed for fast, simple, economical installation from the minute you zip open the first carton
to the second you snap on the last accessory. You make the best looking, most cost-effective baseboard
i
nstallation possible. Without cutting corners.
Without unexpected labor costs.
Take advantage of these Slant/Fin features
for a better installation.
Slant/Fin's selection of pre-cut lengths and
telescopic accessories lets you fit "standard"
Slant/Fin products to virtually any field condi-
tion, for easy, neat wall to wall fit without cut-
ting. With the 3
1
⁄2' baseboard length, you can
figure your runs in half-foot increments. No
one offers greater selection, versatility and
quality for baseboard accessories than
Slant/Fin. Telescoping accessories make up
the odd inches. 7" and 14" filler sleeves also
fill gaps up to a foot.
Drawn steel end caps and wall trim have elegant rounded
edges (instead of welded seams) to give your installation a
more distinctive look. Wall trim conceals top, front and side
for a more finished look than ordinary wall trim that has no
side contour. Has the same appearance as a hinged end
cap, except the side is slotted for passage of the tubing.
Quality enamel finish perfectly matches the
baseboard color to give a harmonious look to
your finished job. Every accessory has thick,
even paint coverage. No streaks. No splotches.
Even the inside is thoroughly protected with
paint for years of rust-free beauty. Full back
panel on end caps, wall trim etc.
Snap-on, hinged accessories
swing up for easy access to air vents and
heating element or for removal of the front
panel— even when wall material covers the
accessory top. Precision piano hinges last
for years.
Slant/Fin baseboard can be installed
flush to the wall or recessed for a more
concealed look.
Turn corners easily. It’s easy to shape your own
inside corner when the standard 90˚ or 135˚ corners
won’t fit. Our field adaptable inside corner is easily
shaped on the job for a perfect fit at bay windows or
any other place with unusually angled corners.
2" splice plate
included free with lengths 5’ and longer,
provides continuity between close fitting
baseboard sections.
Riser hole template, included free in every
baseboard package, lets you quickly mark the
correct location for floor riser holes or wall
holes for straight-through runs. Recommended
hole diameter allows room for lateral
expansion movement of the riser.
Flared element tube —
facilitates joining of baseboard
sections. Right end of each
element tube is flared to accept
tubing from adjacent baseboard
or
3
⁄4" system tubing.
Vented return bend. Special 180˚
bend aligns return line perfectly with
half-moon cutouts in support
brackets. A
1
⁄8" threaded tapping
permits easy installation of air vent,
can also serve as a drain
Wire hangers — provide support for bare tube in
dummy enclosures or for return tubing above
heating element.
Riser rings — provide a neat, clean,
sanitary seal where risers come up through
floor. Wax loaded neoprene acts to cushion
expansion squeaks and vibration noises.
Split collar allows easy installlation at any
time, even after connections are made.
F
ast/Flex connectors can be hand formed around
obstructions, go through tight spots and make up for
any misalignment between baseboard and piping.
Here, one Fast/Flex replaces three elbows and three
lengths of tubing, eliminating much measuring and
fitting. (See Pub. No. EC-FF-10 for additional data.)
