UW- value 1.1

Veka Softline 76 represents an evolutionary development of classic window systems, offering improved thermal properties without a significant cost increase. This is a system with 76 mm installation depth, occupying the "golden mean" niche between basic 70 mm profiles and premium 82 mm systems. With a 3 mm outer wall thickness (Class "A" according to DIN EN 12608), the profile guarantees exceptional shape stability and weld seam durability.

The increased installation width allows for wider and warmer glass units up to 48 mm thick, significantly improving sound insulation and home heat retention. The narrow visible profile part (mullions) ensures maximum daylight penetration, making the room visually more spacious. This is the ideal choice for glazing modern cottages and apartments with high energy efficiency requirements.

System Design Parameters:

  • Installation depth: 76 mm (increased width for improved thermal insulation).
  • Profile class: Class "A" (DIN EN 12608) — 3 mm outer walls.
  • Profile construction: 5 chambers with optimized geometry.
  • Reinforcement: Galvanized steel reinforcement. Frame uses closed square profile providing high section inertia.
  • Sealing: Double-circuit sealing system (AD) or triple-circuit (MD) depending on the article. Seals are replaceable, high-quality material.

Glazing and Filling Options:

  • Maximum filling thickness: up to 48 mm.
  • Glass unit seating depth: 25 mm (Key advantage! Market standard is 18-20 mm). This provides a "warm edge" for the glass unit.
  • Glass unit fixing: Glazing beads of various shapes (rounded, decorative) to match interior design.

Geometry and Dimensions (Window):

  • Profile package height: 112 mm — narrow mullions for modern design.
  • Design: Smooth Softline lines harmonizing with any facade. Option for aluminum cladding.
  • Sash dimensions: Increased allowable dimensions compared to 70 series due to stiffer profile section.

Certified Characteristics (according to DIN EN 14351-1):

  • Profile thermal insulation (Uf): 1.1 W/m²K (with center seal version).
  • Thermal resistance (R0): 0.85–0.95 m²°C/W.
  • Sound insulation (Rw): up to 47 dB (option to install thick acoustic laminated glass).
  • Burglar resistance: RC2 and RC3 classes. Hardware striker plates are fixed to metal reinforcement.
  • Water tightness: Class 9A.
  • Service life: Over 50 years.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions about Veka Softline 76

What is the benefit of 25 mm glass seating depth?

Standard glass unit seating depth is 18-20 mm. Increasing it to 25 mm allows completely hiding the spacer bar behind the profile plastic. This eliminates the "cold bridge" at the edges and dramatically reduces the risk of condensation in freezing weather.

How much warmer is the 76 system compared to 70?

Thanks to the additional 6 mm width and the ability to install 48 mm glass units, the overall thermal resistance of the finished window increases by approximately 10-15%, which is noticeable when heating a private home.

Can I use Veka Spectral coating?

Yes, Softline 76 is the main platform for the unique velvety Spectral coating. The profile is laminated on a colored core (gray, graphite, umber) so that when opening the window, no white gaps are visible.

What is the maximum sash weight the profile can support?

With reinforced hinges and bonded glass unit, the sash can weigh up to 100-120 kg, allowing panoramic opening elements up to 2.4 meters in height.

Is special reinforcement needed for 76 mm?

Yes, this system has its own reinforcement articles precisely matching the chamber geometry. Gaps between plastic and metal are minimal, providing maximum structural rigidity.

Is the system compatible with anti-burglary hardware?

Absolutely. Moreover, thanks to the thick Class "A" walls, hardware screws hold more securely, making it harder to force open the sashes with a crowbar.
