Smooth Column Shaft Profile
Polure smooth column shafts offer a refined, unadorned Tuscan architectural profile ideal for modern villas, minimalist entryways, and classic exterior porticos. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these hollow shaft sections enclose load-bearing posts without adding unnecessary weight. Standard diameters span 20 to 80 cm at a standard height of 240 cm, available in full-round or half-pilaster configurations. Featuring a closed-cell composition with under 1% water absorption, they resist rot, swelling, and frost damage across -100 °C / +80 °C with Class B2 fire safety. Delivered pre-primed in white acrylic, installation requires continuous PU assembly adhesive, countersunk screws, and UV exterior paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Polure smooth column shafts load-bearing?
No, Polure smooth column shafts are hollow and purely decorative. Structural loads must be supported by an internal steel or concrete column. Concrete must NEVER be poured inside.
What diameters and heights are available for smooth column shafts?
Standard diameters are 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 cm with a standard height of 240 cm, available as full round or half pilaster walls.
Can smooth column shafts be used outdoors?
Yes, with water absorption below 1% and thermal stability from -100 °C / +80 °C, they resist rain and frost. Outdoor use requires UV exterior paint.
How are smooth shaft halves assembled during installation?
Half-shaft sections are joined around the structural post using continuous PU assembly adhesive and secured with countersunk mechanical screws.
