Assembly (Typical)

Note: Failure to completely compress the gasketing may result in air leakage.

1Join the two units and secure with field provided 5/8-inch flat washers and 5/8-inch X 2-1/2-inch grade 9 bolts though each of the six holes.

2Caulk the overlapping flange along the length of each split to maintain a seal.

Note: Use a polyurethane or equivalent caulk.

Installation

3Apply the 3-inch X 1/8-inch gasket evenly across the two joined edges of the splits.

4Before installing the pre-cut 4- inch 18 gauge joining strip over the gasket, pre-drill holes in the floor using the 4-inch strip as a guide with a 7/32-inch drill bit at 12 inch centers.

5Apply the 4-inch joining strip over the gasket and uniformly straddle the splits. Secure with number 14 sheet-metal screws at 12-inch centers.
