1. High strength support brackets.
Slant/Fin’s heavy gauge steel
support bracket is shaped by a
series of progressive die strikes
which multiply 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 conve-
nience. 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, rephospho-
rized, 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
standard on all Fine/Line 30 base-
board. The special alloys and rust
inhibitor finish used in making
Fine/Line 30 ensure that the enclo-
sures will maintain their like-new
beauty, even in high moisture areas
such as bathrooms, basements
and laundry rooms. No other resi-
dential baseboard offers this long
lasting protection.
4.
Room control damper helps con-
trol individual room temperature.
Slant/Fin’s unique pivot and damper
mounting assembly provide the
straightest, most responsive
damper available. Factory assem-
bled. 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 ele-
ment. Maximum heat output.
Fins won’t loosen.
Double bent
aluminum fins pack extra heating
surface in a slimmer enclosure.
Interlocking tongue-and-groove
collars permanently 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 contact with bracket
and enclosure. Cradle slides silent-
ly over support bracket as heating
element expands and contracts.
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.
