Series 526 Impact Installation Instructions
Sealant
[Fig. 44]
The preset gasket will need to be pulled out of the corners or removed completely before
starting to install the 16H8 glazing adaptor. Run a bead of sealant from the bottom of the
head, down the interior edge of the glazing adaptor pocket, and across the pocket at the
top of the door header. Attach the glazing adaptor using SDR1 (10-16 X 3/4 TEK)
fasteners. Run a continuous bead of sealant across the seam of the glass legs and all the
way to the exterior edge of the glazing adaptor pocket in the jamb. Tool it to ensure a
watertight seal. Do this at both top and bottom of the adaptor. Snap the preset gasket
back into the gasket track before sealant sets up.

Prior to applying sealant to the
required areas, clean the area
with Isopropyl Alcohol and a
clean towel that will not leave
towel materials behind. Wipe
off material with a sufficiently
dampened towel to remove all
dust, oil, and cutting fluids
from the required areas. Allow
to air dry before applying any
sealant.
