Rigid Polymer Capital
The Polure rigid polymer capital offers a refined decorative crown for architectural columns and wall pilasters. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), this structural ornament delivers wood-like mechanical toughness and detail clarity without adding heavy loads to the building structure. Note: all Polure column capitals are strictly non-load-bearing; structural weight must be supported by an internal steel column, and concrete must never be poured into the hollow interior. With water absorption below 1% and temperature resistance from -100 °C / +80 °C alongside a B2 fire safety class, it remains stable in both indoor and outdoor environments. Supplied factory pre-primed in white acrylic primer, installation requires continuous PU assembly adhesive and countersunk screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Polure rigid polymer capital carry load-bearing weight?
No, Polure rigid polymer capitals are strictly decorative and non-load-bearing. Structural loads must be carried by an internal steel support.
Can you pour concrete inside the hollow rigid polymer capital?
No, pouring concrete inside Polure hollow capitals or columns is strictly forbidden as it causes cracking.
What density material is used in the rigid polymer capital?
It is crafted from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³) featuring a B2 flame-retardant safety class.
How is the rigid polymer capital installed onto column shafts?
Apply continuous PU assembly adhesive along joining edges and secure with mechanical countersunk screws.
