2.4    PANELS shall be 3" (76) thick and nominally 49" (1245) Wide. Panel faces shall be laminated to metal frames. Panels shall have appropriate internal insulation to achieve specified STC. The tops of the panels shall be reinforced to support suspension components.

The vertical edges of the panels shall not require trim thus minimizing the appearance of the vertical joining of the Sheer-Look® panels.

2.5    PANELS shall be factory surfaced with one of the following (colors to be selected from manufacturer's standards):

2.5.1    Manufacturer's standard vinyl, Class A flame spread (specify Type I; or Type II).
2.5.2    Manufacturer's standard Ribtex
®, vertical-rib wall carpeting, Class A minimum weight 21 oz. per lineal yard, fused bonded backing.
2.5.3    Manufacturer's Woventex
®, panel fabric, Class A. acrylic backed.
2.5.4    Maharam Tekwall 1000 panel fabric, Class A acrylic backed.
2.5.5    Genuine unfinished wood veneer shall be (specify: White Ash, Red Oak, Natural Birch, American Walnut or other species as specified).
2.5.6    High pressure plastic laminate, vertical grade.
2.5.7    Customer's Own Material to be factory applied (subject to approval by the manufacturer for suitability to standard manufacturing processes and equipment).
2.5.8    Unsurfaced panel skins for field finishing by others.

2.6    HANGING WEIGHT of panels shall not exceed 8 lbs./ft2 (39 Kg/m2).

2.7    ACOUSTICAL RATING as tested by an independent acoustical laboratory in accordance with ASTM E90-81 test procedures in a full scale 14'0" (4267) by 9'3" (2819) opening shall be (specify: STC 47, STC 44, STC 42 or STC 38).

2.8    SOUND SEALS shall be as follows:

2.8.1    Vertical seals between panels shall consist of deep nesting, universal interlocking ESP bronze steel astragals incorporating continuous, vinyl acoustical seals. Vertical astragal vinyl seals shall be installed on the outboard edges of the panel skins in a double row with an acoustical labyrinth.
2.8.2    Horizontal TOP seals shall be (specify:continuous contact extruded vinyl shapes; or clearance type, automatically actuated; or clearance type, manually actuated).
2.8.3    Horizontal BOTTOM seals shag be (specify: 1 1/2" (38) clearance-type automatically actuated by the movement of one panel-pair against the other; or 1 1/2" (38) clearance-type manually actuated at waist height on panel edges). Downward pressure of all clearance-type seal mechanisms shall assure an acoustical seal and resist panel movement.

2.9    SUSPENSION SYSTEM shall be heavy duty aluminum Type 7/8 track. Track shall be supported by (specify: adjustable steel hanger rods; or direct mount). Panels shall be supported by trolley assemblies of radial type nylon tired or carbon fiber fill tired, steel ball-bearing wheels. Trolleys shall be attached to the panels with adjustable steel pendant bolls with locks to prevent panel misalignment.
