Ionic Column Head
Polure Ionic column capitals crown architectural columns and pilasters with classic Greek spiraled volute details. Molded directly from classical architectural sculptures in high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these Ionic capitals provide crisp decorative detail without heavy stone weight. Designed as hollow ornamental capital shells, they are strictly non-load-bearing and must never be filled with concrete; structural loads require an internal steel profile. Featuring a closed-cell polymer matrix with water absorption under 1%, they resist humidity, rot, and weathering across temperatures from -100 °C / +80 °C with B2 fire safety. Every Ionic capital comes factory-precoated with a white acrylic primer. Installation is completed by securing the capital over the column shaft with continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive paired with countersunk mechanical screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Polure Ionic column heads load-bearing?
No. They are hollow decorative capital shells and non-load-bearing. An internal steel column profile must support structural loads.
Can concrete be poured inside Polure Ionic column heads?
No, pouring concrete inside polyurethane Ionic capitals is strictly forbidden as it will cause material distortion.
What material density is used for Polure Ionic column heads?
They are molded from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), delivering stone-like mechanical durability at a lightweight handle.
How are Ionic column heads mounted during installation?
Apply continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive to contact joints and anchor with mechanical screws. Silicone is forbidden.
What paint finish should be applied to Ionic column heads?
Capitals come factory-primed with white acrylic primer. Use acrylic interior paint indoors, or elastic UV-resistant facade paint outdoors.
