TOP EDGE
OPTION 1: (Vinyl T molding edge) - Tops shall be constructed of
solid, " thick, AC grade, 7 ply, exterior glue plywood, surfaced with
high pressure plastic laminate and are to be backed with a phenolic
sheet to prevent moisture penetration. Tops are to be edged with vinyl T
molding having a thickness of at least 3/16". The T molding shall be
secured against removal by the use of staples at regular intervals on
the under side of the table top.
OPTION 2:
(PermaTuff Edge) - Tops shall be constructed of solid, "
thick, AC grade, exterior glue plywood, surfaced with high pressure
plastic laminate and are to be backed with a phenolic sheet to prevent
moisture penetration. Edges of tops shall be protected with a
polyurethane epoxy resin, chemically bonded to the edges of the plastic
laminate, core material and backing sheet.
SUPPORT FRAME:
Table tops shall be supported by a formed steel channel frame at least
1-13/16" deep and of 16 gauge steel. The channel shall form a continuous
frame having square corners and welded joints. Frames shall be secured
to the table top with screws placed no greater than 10" apart.
LEG ASSEMBLY
All leg assemblies shall be wishbone style having vertical load bearing
members of at least 1-1/16" diameter, 14 gauge, steel tubing. The upper,
horizontal tube on leg assemblies shall rotate within two, 16 gauge
steel saddle clips. Saddle clips shall be fastened to the table top
using a minimum of four screws each. Leg assemblies are to be capped at
the bottom with load bearing, high impact, plastic glides, secured with
spring steel internal grippers. No horizontal members shall be
positioned less than 12" from the floor to facilitate floor cleaning.
For stability, no wishbone style leg assembly shall have an offset in
the leg greater than five inches. Game tables and round tables 36" or
less in diameter are furnished with four independent folding legs of
1-1/16" diameter, 14 gauge steel tubing.
LEG BRACE
MECHANISM
Leg braces shall be constructed of at least 7/8" wide x .125" thick,
edge-radiused steel. Braces made of less than 11 gauge steel are not
acceptable. For safety, braces shall lock automatically and remain
locked when the table is in any position during folding and unfolding.
Braces shall be designed and constructed to resist wear from frequent
operation that could prevent the brace from locking the leg securely in
place. Spring actuated devices with case-hardened steel poppits are
preferred. The leg brace pivot bracket shall be secured to the table top
using a minimum of eight fasteners.
METAL FINISH
All metal parts shall be thoroughly cleaned and phosphatized to enhance
paint adhesion. Metal parts are to be finished with a thermofused epoxy
powdercoating.
WARRANTY
EF Series Folding Tables shall be covered by a 10-year warranty. |
