PART 2 - PRODUCTS

2.1 CUBICLE CURTAIN TRACKS

A. Channel Tracks (Surface Mounted Type): Extruded aluminum, ASTM B221M (B221), alloy 6063, temper T5 or T6, cha nnel shaped, with smooth inside raceway for curtain carriers.

B. Surface mounted hookless curtain track.

D. Curtain Carriers: Nylon carriers, with nylon whe els on metal or nylon axles.

1. Equip each carrier with either stainless steel, chromium plated brass or steel hooks with swivel, or nickel chromiu m plated brass or stainless steel bead chain

2. Hook for bead chain may be the same material and finish as the bead chain or may be chromium plated steel.

3. Provide 2.2 carriers for every 305 mm (1 foot) o f each section of each track length, plus one (1) additional carrier.
