Identification
The MAC cover band made from stainless spring steel consists of a smooth steel strip
(1) with S-shaped spring elements on the underside (2) for fastening.
Installation is carried out on special cover strip rails (3) with a dovetail groove. Once
installed, the cover strip lies flat with a slight curvature on top of the guide rail covering
its upper surface in the area where the guide rail fixing holes are located. The edges
of the guide rail upper surface are left uncovered. The strip is held in place by the
S-shaped spring elements, which hook into the guide rail groove and guarantee
a firm and secure grip thanks to the resulting locking fit. The strip is also secured at
its ends by special end pieces (4) which prevent the retaining elements from springing
back and the cover strip from lifting. The end pieces simultaneously seal the frontal
gap between the guide rail and cover strip.
