Aluflam AW60 fire rated windows are high performance, thermally broken narrow aluminium frames with its cavity
filled with patented fire retardant cooling core. Incorporating extensively tested fire resistant glazing, the AF70
system can be used internally or externally in either 30 or 60 minute fire ratings.
Aluflam glass structures are extensively tested in Australia and throughout the world to the highest standards for
fire resistance.
Benefits
- Clean, sharp lines of narrow stile aluminium
- Large glass areas
- Can be install in masonry or plasterboard fire wall
- Simple installation
- High impact resistance
- Energy efficient
- Interior and exterior installation
- Fire rating up to -/60/60
- Manufactured in Australia
Framing
The revolutionary aluminium framing is a thermally
broken 61.5x70mm high quality extruded profile that is
filled with a patented insulating compound.
All gaps and edges are sealed with high temperature
gaskets for fire, smoke and weather protection.

Glass
A grade safety glass to AS1288 is used in all Aluflam
glass structures. Two or more layers of specially
toughened safety glass is laminated with intumescent
gel that provides thermal protection.
For exterior installations a double glazed unit with 6mm
toughed low-E glass is used to provide higher comfort
levels and also protection of the intumecent gels from
elevated temperatures.
Refer to our Glass datasheet for details.
Finishes
Aluflam can supply a number of factory applied finishes
including.
- Anodising
- Polyester power coating Refer to our Metal Finishes datasheet for details.
Sidelites and Transoms
The Aluflam AF70 framing systems can be framed
in modular sections up to a maximum of 6m wide
x 6m high. It is recommended to limit each frame
construction to 3m wide x 3m high for ease of shipping,
handling and installation.
Transoms can be incorporated into the frame to reduce
the glass pane size.
Each frame system can be connected to itself to
construct a larger wall construction.
Maintenance
Fire rated glass must be inspected annually in
accordance with AS1851 by a competent person
checking the integrity of the glass and seals. Full details
are in the standard.
Butt Joint Glazing
For a seemless glass look, fire rated glass can be
installed without mullions up to 60 minute fire rating.
The vertical glass joint is sealed with black fire rated
silicone.
