Point Fix PF150 — Glass Balustrade System
Description

The PlateFix PF150 (Metroview Point-Fix) was born from the double-disc fixings by joining the discs into a single piece profile base plate with an outer clamping plate for a stronger multipurpose balustrade fixing. This enables the PF150 to be used with single or double fixings and it can be used vertically, horizontally, angled or a combination of the above.

The Metro Glass Generic PS1 System covers most standard installations for fast PS1 turnaround generally just a few days.
