•
Left curves (L): Mounting channels A facing out from
the curve.
•
Right curves (R): Mounting channels A facing inward
into the curve.
Pipe pins and coupling brackets with lock screws are used
to couple curves with straight rails.
Bracket positions on the curves
Angle 30° 0.2 + 0.2 m straight ends: A coupling bracket at
both ends, if the curve is connected to straight rails.
Angle 45° 0.2 + 0.2 m straight ends: A coupling bracket at
both ends, if the curve is connected to straight rails and a
narrow bracket at the middle of the curve.
Angle 60° 0.2 + 0.2 m straight ends: One coupling bracket,
at both ends if the curve is connected to straight rails and
a narrow bracket at the middle of the curve.
Angle 90° 0.6 + 0.6 m straight ends: One coupling bracket,
if the curve is connected to straight rails and a narrow
bracket at the middle of the curve.
For installation instructions for curves, see section: 5.2.1.1,
section 5.2.1.2.
3.6 Rail coupling
3.6.1 Rail coupling for profile M and L
The following items are used for rail coupling:
•
Rail profile M no. 1.
•
Rail profile M no. 2.
•
Insertion tube (for profile M).
•
Coupling bracket (quick or standard).
•
Pipe pins.
•
Stop screws.
•
Bolt M6.
•
Washer.
•
M6 lock nuts.
Push the insertion tube halfway into rail profile no. 1 and
secure it with a passing bolt. Furthermore, drill the holes
for the pipe pins in rail profile no. 2 up to 3.2 mm in a
depth corresponding to half the length of the pipe pins.
Guide the pipe pins halfway into rail profile no. 1 and
squeeze them together in the end.
Push the coupling bracket halfway onto rail profile no. 1
and secure it with the stop screw.
20
The coupling bracket is only required when mounting the
rail on the ceiling. If you are coupling a traverse rail, the
coupling bracket is not required. Push together rail profile
no. 2 and no. 1 and secure them with the locking screw
in the coupling bracket and the passing bolt.
Install the coupled rail using the instructions for installation
of straight rail profiles, see section 5.2.
When coupling long rails, it can be difficult to lift the
coupled rail in one piece. In this case, first install the first
rail on the ceiling. Then lift up the next rail which has
been prepared for coupling and push the rails together.
3.6.2 Rail coupling for profile S
The following items are used for rail coupling:
•
Rail profile no. 1
•
Rail profile no. 2
•
Coupling bracket (quick or standard)
•
Pipe pins
•
Stop screws
1. Drill the holes for the pipe pins in rail profile no. 2 up
to 3.2 mm in a depth corresponding to half the length
of the pipe pins.
2. Drive the pipe pins halfway into rail profile no. 1 and
squeeze them together in the end.
3. Push the coupling bracket halfway onto rail profile no.
1 and secure it with the stop screw.
4. Insert rail profile no. 2 into the coupling bracket and
drive the two rails together.
5. Tighten the stop screw on rail profile no. 2.
6. Install the coupled rails using the instructions for
installation of straight rail profiles.
IMPORTANT!
When coupling long rails, it can be difficult to
lift up the coupled rail in one piece.
– In this case, first install the first rail on the
ceiling. Then lift the next rail which has been
prepared for coupling and push the rails
together.
3.7 Wall support legs
Wall support legs are used for installation on gypsum walls
and walls of other lightweight plate material.
