Column Base Molding
Polure column base moldings anchor decorative pillars, porch columns, and wall pilasters with a refined bottom transition. Formed from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these moldings provide wood-like mechanical strength and impact resistance near floor levels where kicks or equipment contacts occur. Featuring a closed-cell physical matrix with water absorption under 1%, they will not absorb moisture, rot, or swell when installed on exterior porches or humid interior floors. Fire class B2 compliant and stable from -100 °C / +80 °C, each molding section arrives factory pre-primed with white acrylic primer. Installation is completed by applying continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive on bottom and rear contact faces, securing with mechanical screws, filling fastener holes with facade filler, sanding smooth with 180-220 grit, and painting with topcoat paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
What material is used for Polure column base moldings?
They are manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), offering high impact resistance and B2 fire rating.
Are column base moldings load-bearing?
No, Polure column base moldings are decorative non-load-bearing elements. Structural loads must be carried by an internal steel core profile.
How do you install column base moldings?
Apply continuous PU assembly adhesive on contact edges, secure with mechanical screws, fill screw holes with filler, sand, and paint.
Is silicone recommended for column base molding installation?
No, silicone is strictly forbidden as it lacks long-term structural bonding. Always use polyurethane assembly adhesive with mechanical screws.
