New TECNAC concealed tilt and turn system for European profile

TECNAC adds to its range a new concealed tilt-and-turn system for European profiles, designed for 1 and 2 leaf windows, with concealed hinges, specific stays and solutions for closing the second leaf using pins or a guillotine.

A hidden solution for tilt-and-turn aluminum windows

The TECNAC concealed tilt-and-turn system is designed for joinery companies that want to maintain the functionality of a tilt-and-turn window, but with a cleaner and more refined aesthetic.

With the hinges integrated inside the profile, the assembly offers a more discreet appearance than systems with visible hinges. This is especially advantageous for windows where the final finish is crucial, both in new construction and in renovations with more demanding aesthetic requirements.

In addition to the visual aspect, the system is designed to solve real-world installations in European profiles, allowing work with both single-leaf windows and double-leaf configurations.

Concealed hinges with more controlled assembly

The system incorporates concealed upper and lower hinges designed to facilitate quick mounting on the profile.

The upper hinge is positioned at the top and the lower hinge at the bottom, minimizing the adjustments required during installation. This assembly method helps the professional work with a clear reference point, avoiding wasted time on unnecessary adjustments.

Concealed hinges are handed, so it is necessary to specify whether the tilt-and-turn mechanism is to be mounted on a right- or left-opening window.

Two measures according to the size of the sheet

The system works with two types of compasses, designed to adapt to different sheet dimensions.

Short compass

The short compass is suitable for sheets from 395 to 650 mm.

It is the right option when working with smaller sheets or when the required opening range fits this measurement.

Long compass

The long compass is suitable for sheets from 450 to 1,000 mm.

This version allows covering larger sheets, while maintaining a solution consistent with the window dimensions.

The choice between short and long compasses should not be made by preference, but based on the size of the sheet and the actual needs of the assembly.

Adjustable connections with escutcheons

The connections with the escutcheons have an adjustable piece that allows for small production differences to be overcome and the mechanism to be adjusted for more precise operation.

This detail is important in the daily work of carpentry, because not all assemblies are identical and small variations can affect the final behavior of the window.

The ability to adjust the connection helps improve system performance and facilitates a more controlled installation.

Anti-false maneuver integrated into the forwarding angle

The anti-false maneuvering mechanism is integrated into the forward angle.

Its function is to help reduce the risk of incorrect sash maneuvers, especially during the change between tilt-and-turn and tilt-and-turn positions.

This type of solution provides a more organized system operation and improves the user experience, preventing situations where the blade may end up in an unsuitable position during the maneuver.

Optimized connector for TECNAC tilt and turn cremone bolts

The connector with the cremone bolt is optimized for use with the tilt and turn cremone bolts available in the TECNAC catalog.

This allows for a more coherent solution among the different elements of the system: hinges, compasses, escutcheons, redirect angles and cremone bolt.

For the professional, this compatibility between components facilitates the selection of the hardware and helps to avoid improvised combinations that may affect the final functioning of the window.

Solutions for single and double-leaf windows

The new TECNAC concealed tilt-and-turn system can be used in single-leaf windows and also in double-leaf windows.

In two-leaf configurations, TECNAC offers two solutions for closing the passive leaf:

Oscillo pin set

The Oscilo pin set allows the closure of the second leaf using pins, maintaining a practical and familiar solution for the professional.

Guillotine pins

Guillotine pins offer an alternative for those assemblies where this configuration is more suitable due to design, maneuverability, or installation requirements.

Having both options allows the system to be adapted to different ways of working and different window configurations.

A system designed for carpentry workshops seeking both aesthetics and functionality.

The new TECNAC concealed tilt-and-turn system combines a cleaner aesthetic with a technical solution designed for professional installation.

Its concealed hinges, specific compasses according to leaf dimensions, adjustable connection with espagnolettes, integrated anti-false operation and options for single or double leaf windows make this family a useful proposal for joinery workshops working with European profiles.

TECNAC continues to expand its range of accessories and systems for aluminum joinery with solutions designed to meet real assembly needs.
