' MaRviN��, Introduction and ProductPerformance w�°°°W° `�` °°°,° Built around you: IGlossary of Terms KEYED CYLINDER LOCK:A lock providing an exterior entry and locking convenience. KRYPTON GAS:An inert gas known for its ability to provide insulating properties in smaller IG air spaces. � LAMINATED GLASS:Glass composed of two sheets of glass fused together with a sheet of transparent plastic befinreen the sheets. When broken, laminated glass will generally not leave the opening and is often used as safety or security glazing. LAMINATED VENEER LUMBER (LVL): An engineered wood product that uses multiple layers of thin wood assembled with , adhesives. It offers several advantages over typical milled lumber: it is stronger, straighter, and more uniform. It is much less likely than conventional lumber to wrap,twist, bow, or shrink due to its composite nature. LAMINATING: A method of gluing strips of thin non finger-jointed wood to the lengthwise surfaces of finger-jointed material to � provide the appearance of non finger-jointed stock. LEVER LOCK:A lever handle and lever arm operator available as an option on awning units. LOCKSET: A complete door lock system comprised of the lock mechanism together with knobs, keys, plates, strikes and other accessories. ' LOW E GLASS: Low E stands for low emissiviry.The lower the emissivity the higher the percentage of long wave radiation blocked thereby improving thermal performance. Low E glass is coated with a thin microscopic, virtually invisible, metal or metallic oxide layer. The primary function is to reduce the U-factor by suppressing radiative heat flow.A secondary feature is the blocking of short , wave radiation to impede heat gain.There are two basic types of Low E glass.The first,vacuum or Sputter coated Low E, is referred to as softcoat(See Low E2 definition).The second is pyrolitic Low E, commonly referred to as hardcoat. (See pyrolitic definition.) LOW E2:A high performance Low E2 glass, providing excellent winter and center of glass temperatures. It offers reduced solar heat gain coefficient values providing customers cool summer glass temperature. Additionally, ultraviolet light transmission is greatly � reduced. The Low E2 coated glass products are specifically designed for insulating glass units normally as a second surface coating. See Low E and pyrolitic definitions. LOW E3: A high performance Low E glass, providing the best winter U-factor and center of glass temperatures. It offers extremely , low solar heat gain coefficient values providing customers a summer glass temperature that is very low.Additionally, it provides the best reduction in ultraviolet light transmission. LOW PROFILE SILL:Also referred to as saddles,these sills have no more than a 1/2"(13)rise. Low profile sills are required when a door opening must meet codes associated with the Americans with Disabilities Act. ' MAGNUM:A Marvin trade name for heavily constructed window products which are designed for applications where a heavy duty product is necessary. MAGNUM HOPPER(MHOP):A heavy duty window designed to hinge on the bottom and tilt into the room for ventilation purposes. ' MAGNUM TILT-TURN (MTT):A heavy duty window. The Magnum Tilt-Turn has hardware which allows the sash to either be tilted into the room from the sill or swing fully open into the room. MASONRY OPENING(MO):A brick, stone or block opening into which a window or door unit is installed. Exterior casing may cause the Masonry Opening to be larger than the Rough Opening. , MEETING STILES: The vertical members of a glider sash or sliding door panel that are designed to mate with the meeting stile of the paired sash. MORTISE AND TENONING: The system by which Marvin assembles authentic divided lite units, a projecting tenon on either the 1 muntins or bars fit snugly into a mortise in either a bar, stile or rail. MULLING:The act of attaching finro or more window or door units together.The joint is then finished with a mullion center cap or mull trim. ' MULLION: The vertical member of a sash,window or door frame between openings in a multiple opening frame. 1. SPACE MULL-Two or more units mulled together with a space left between the units. The jamb extension surrounds the entire unit. 2. STUD POCKET-Two or more units mulled together with a space between the units. The jamb extension surrounds each ' unit separately, providing space for a support member between the units. MULLION COVER:A clad cover for space mull usage that covers a range from 3"(�6)minimum to 10"(254)maximum width. MULLION EXPANDER:An aluminum extrusion designed specificaily for the Clad Magnum Double Hung Replacement System with 1 Panning to allow the existing panning to be expanded to a wider width to accommodate a larger rough opening. MULLION REINFORCEMENT:A system of high-strength members placed between units of an assembly and fastened to the RO and the units to provide enhanced structural performance. 3/8" (10)Aluminum, 1" (25) LVL, and various tube mullion options are available for most products. � MULTI-POINT LOCKING SYSTEM: A line of standard or optional multiple point locking mechanisms installed on the operative panel(s)/sash of various Marvin products to enhance security and performance.
