Prevents bowing of large windows

Truth Snubbers prevent bowing of tall casement windows or wide awning windows and have been found to improve the seals of the bottom and top rails of double-hung windows in the closed position.
Some models feature a PVC insert for use on aluminum-clad units, which reduces wear on the finish of the cladding.
A Concealed Snubber which fits between the sash and frame of the Truth 14 Series hinge cavity is also available
This hardware is not visible from the exterior of the window.
Suitable for use with concealed or exposed hinges.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1. Snubbers are recommended for use at the center of the hinge side of any casement window which has a tendency to bow outward at the middle when in the closed position.
2. Adding a Snubber may increase the negative air pressure rating of a casement, awning or double hung window.
3. If the sash has a cladded exterior and requires a Snubber, then a Snubber with a PVC insert should be used to prevent marring.
4. For accurate hardware placement in vinyl or metal applications, pre-drilling of the window profile is recommended.
5. For vinyl window applications, mounting screws should pass through two PVC walls, or one PVC wall and one insert wall. For this reason, it may be necessary to use a longer screw than is recommended.
6. When selecting mounting screws for this hardware, coating compatibility is one of the most important criteria. For best corrosion resistance the coating on the screws should be the same as the coating on the hardware.
7. For metal window profiles Richelieu recommends machine screws. However, in most applications sheet metal screws will provide adequate holding power.
