What is a sliding window?
1. Sliding window
The sliding window is a window that allows the sash to slide relatively on the frame track and open horizontally through the track and the pulley.
Because the window sash is the center of force and has no cantilever member, it can transmit the external force to the window frame, and the wind load it bears is much smaller than that of the casement window.
The low requirement for the moment of inertia of the profile is conducive to reducing the section of the profile reasonably and saving the cost.
It is flexible to open, does not occupy space, the process is simple, it is not easy to be damaged, and it is easy to maintain. It is suitable for all kinds of buildings that do not require high ventilation, sealing and thermal insulation.
2. Types of sliding windows
There are two types of sliding windows: left and right and up and down.
The advantage of the sliding window is that it does not occupy the indoor space, the appearance is also very beautiful, the price is economical and the sealing is also very good.
Through the slide rail, with a slight push, the opening is very flexible. Coupled with large pieces of glass, it not only increases indoor lighting, but also improves the overall appearance of the building.
The sash has a good stress state and is not easy to be damaged, but the ventilation area is limited to a certain extent.
