There are plenty of ways to try to insulate against the winds that buffet New Zealand houses. Virutex have one of the most innovative and effective methods on the market today - the RA17VG. This machine is specially designed for slotting wooden doors and windows to allow installation of silicon insulating joints.
A clever design, the RA17VG cuts grooves into which rubber extrusions are fitted, to form a seal. Using interchangeable guides, the machine can be used vertically or at 45⁰, depending on the profile.
With centering pivot easing the entry of the bit at the start of the slotting process.
The sealing extrusions can be mounted on the frame or the sash, and the flexibility of this system means that it can also be used on doors.
Using the machine is simple. The guide fits inside the profile’s rebate, ensuring an accurate groove as little as 3mm as you track around a window, frame or door. A pivot eases entry of the tool at the start of the slotting process. As with all Virutex’s hand tools, the RA17VG is light and well-balanced, and a 550W motor provides all the power required.
The RA17VG comes equipped with double point 3mm bit, two interchangeable bases, lateral fence, dust collector pipe and carrying case.
