S-system Clips 50-W Louver

The 50-W louver is one of the louver types of the S-system, that doesn't use the standard S-clip. It requires a custom slat clip. That is because the 50-W has a step of only 45 mm. And since it is made from wood composite, it is much thicker than it's aluminium counterpart, the roll formed 50-A louver.

The clip is a two part mechanism. Jointly, the pivot arm and slat clip determine the position of the louver; from open to close, and any position in between.

Pivot arm

Double pivot arm for 45 mm step louversThe pivot arm is pressed into the top track of the rack. This makes a clipping sound, and the reason this part of the assembling process is called clipping. This double version is specifically developed for louvers with a 45 mm step (pitch).

Slat clip
