Aluminium Profiles
C-Profiles
Generally used between the Helping Hand brackets and steel studs, when the rainscreen system supports doesn’t match the main structure.
Designed to support light to medium weight facades for heavy weight facades use the RJ tophat design.
The C-profile when compared to the tophat removes the requirement to notch insulation.
C-profiles are designed with a material thickness of 3mm in fixing locations for improved performance, while also taking some of the additional weight away from other areas, assisting in the overall cost of the C-profile.
Fixed point holder channel has increased legs for stiffness to support facades up to 20kg/m2 and wind loads of 1600N/m2
Bracket and profile configuration is specified by RJ Facades technical department. To submit your project specifics please go to Facade Designer.

Technical Characteristics
Typical bracket configuration uses the Fixed Point bracket at the highest position on the vertical rail to support the façade vertical dead loads. The Sliding Point bracket is used typically on all other positions on the vertical rail to absorb the project wind loading
The system benefits from using a standard helping hand system, which is interchangeable with other RJ Facades helping hand systems based on the project requirements.
Bracket configuration is specified by RJ Facades technical department. To submit your project specifics please go to Facade Designer.
RJ Facades offer one of the UK's largest range of Helping Hand brackets which have been designed to help achieve the the required U-Value while helping to support the facade system going back to the backing wall.
