Materials
Stair-nosing prole, made of aluminum, designed to protect and
decorate the edge of tiled stairs. . Its striated visible side acts as
a slip-resistant element and increases the safety of stair edges. Its
design integrates perfectly the tiles and gives the stairs an elegant
touch. Available in matt silver nish.

Applications
Aluminum
Novopeldaño® 4 aluminum is a prole designed to be placed as a stair nosing. Its striated face side
helps to fulll with the DB-SUA (Basic Document of Security in usage and Accessibility) from CTE
(Spanish Technical Building Code) because improves the value of slip resistance of the oor where it
is installed.
The Technical Guide of Accessibility in building 2001, also recommends the installation of visual and
tactile elements at the beginning and the ending of stairs to favor the accessibility of people with
reduced visibility.
Novopeldaño® 4 aluminum is ideal for public areas such as airports, hotels, hospitals, etc. and for its
installation in homes. Its easiness of placement, without need of work, makes it specially indicated for
reform works and facilities improvements.
Novopeldaño® 5 is a prole made by extrusion of aluminium. These proles have been anodized,
improving mainly by this proccess their corrosion and mechanical resistance and their appearance..
The anodized applied, has the quality seal “Qualanod” which guarantees the quality of the process and
the resulting proles. This seal regulates several tests: appearance and color, thickness measurements,
sealing and impregnation control, abrasion resistance, lightfastness, acetic saline chamber and nitric
acid immersion.
The aluminium is a material with excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight,
tough, ductile, malleable and highly durable.

* In this graph you can see the comparison between the Rd of the ooring without Novopeldaño® 4 Aluminum and the Rd
of the ooring with the prole installed. The different areas that conform different classes have been delimited to see clearly
the improvement obtained of Rd and of ooring class.
* With the help of this chart you can know the Rd and the class of the ooring which will result due to the installation of
Novopeldaño® 4 Aluminum as stair nosing. You can compare the values obtained respecting to the ooring without the
prole installed. Values marked in green will identify those values whose improvement has meant an increasing of the class
of the ooring.

Installation
1. Spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the surface of the riser.
2. Place the tile on the riser and press to get an optimal adherence.
3. Then, spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the tread and align the prole on its vertex so it
rests on the riser (Do not let overhang, the leverage may remove the step and the tiles). Then press
so the thin-set mortar could pass through the mechanized holes of the anchoring wing. Be also
sure you ll the inside of the prole to reinforce the installation.
4. Place one tile on the tread, align it to the prole and press to get a perfect adhesion. You can tap it
softly with a rubber hammer.
5. Clean the possible leftover material and let dry.
Cleaning and maintenance
This product must be cleaned periodically with a soft cloth. If you use a neutral liquid cleaner, you must
rinse the prole with cold water and dry it to remove the humidity excess. The persistent dirtiness can
be removed by using cleaning approved agents lightly abrasive or a grid covered with polished powder
neutral. If a preserving agent is applied, as well as keep a very thin layer of water repellent, note that it
can’t be yellow,attract dust or dirt or have iridescent effects.
Steel wool, abrasive cleaners, souring products as well as strong acids (hydrochloric and
perchloric),strong bases (caustic soda or ammonia) or carbonated solutions are not recommended.
Citric acid is neither recommended because disolves the protective layer of the surface of aluminium.
Waxes, petrolatum, lanolin or similar substances are not appropriate. Solvents containing haloalkanes
(hydrouoroether and chlorinated solvents) and curing accelerators containing chlorides should not be
used (use special accelerators free of chlorides).
