Staircase Balustrade Base Profile
Staircase balustrade base profiles manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³) form a robust foundational track for balusters and railings on stairs and terraces. Engineered to offer wood-like mechanical load distribution and high impact resistance, these base profiles will not split, warp, or rot over time. With closed-cell water absorption below 1%, they provide complete protection against dampness, cleaning water, or freezing outdoor weather (-100 °C / +80 °C). Pre-primed with a smooth white acrylic technical primer, Polure balustrade base profiles accept water-based, synthetic, or exterior UV-resistant paints. Installation requires clean, dry floor surfaces, continuous PU assembly adhesive, and mechanical screw fixing (silicone is strictly forbidden). Lightly sand with 180-220 grit paper prior to applying topcoat paint.
