Section 11 - Outside 90° Corner SSG Unit Glazing : C. Adapter Installation
13. Slide WC20 bulb gasket into one of the 17F6 glazing adapters and both 17A6 SSG vertical fin bars. Exercise care to avoid stretching the gasket during
installation. Let the bulb gasket run approximately 1/4” longer on each end than 17A6 and 17F6. The bulb gasket must be installed prior to applying 17F6 and
17A6.
14. Crimp the bulb in place to prevent slippage during unit installation. Crimp at each end of the adapter, and then about 24” on center.
15. Roll the 17A6 SSG vertical fin bar into the isolator in each vertical mullion of the assembled unit (Refer to Volume 2, page 14, Figures 29 and 30 of the S-
8000 Unitized Curtain Wall Assembly Instructions). Crowd the bulb gasket so it is flush with each end of the fin bar during fin bar installation. The fin bar
runs between the gutter and the stack sill glazing adapter with approximately 1/8” gaps at each end for sealant continuity.
16. Roll the 17F6 adapters into the isolator, in the corner mullion of the assembled unit. (See Figure 13 and 14 below).
17. Adjust the 17B7 stack sill adapter so that it is flush with the 17A6 vertical fin bar on each end at the jambs as shown in Figure 28 of Volume 2, page 14 of the
S-8000 Unitized Curtain Wall Assembly Instructions.
