Description

The MB-79N US system offers a cost-effective and functional solution while fully meeting modern technical requirements. It is designed to create windows with concealed sashes, making operable units indistinguishable from fixed ones when viewed from the outside. This ensures a uniform and elegant façade, regardless of the window’s function.

The system is available in two frame options:

  • A-type frame – partially covering the sash

  • B-type frame – completely covering the sash, providing the perfect visual effect of a fixed window

In both cases, the external glass surfaces of fixed and operable units are aligned on the same plane, ensuring a sleek and consistent appearance. A dedicated adaptation profile also allows the use of frames and crosspieces from the standard MB-79N system.

The MB-79N US makes it possible to manufacture large, heavy windows while maintaining excellent performance. Like the base MB-79N system, it is characterised by high thermal and acoustic insulation, superior water- and air-tightness, and full compliance with energy efficiency and environmental protection requirements.

TECHNICAL DATA AND PERFORMANCE

Functions and Aesthetics

  • Profile depth: 70 mm for the frame and 79 mm for the sash

  • Triple-glazing ready: profiles designed to accommodate triple glazing, with the central section acting as insulation between 33.5 or 36 mm thermal breaks

  • Reinforced sash design: innovative thermal break section in the sash provides high rigidity and excellent resistance to deflection

  • Thermal variants: available in three options, matching the standard MB-79N system:

    • MB-79N US E – economical version with a single-component central gasket

    • MB-79N US ST – upgraded with a two-component gasket

    • MB-79N US SI – highest thermal insulation, using inserts in the thermal break zone and a two-component central gasket

  • Excellent thermal insulation: Uf values place the system among the leading performers in its category

  • High airtightness and watertightness: achieved through the specially shaped one- or two-component central gasket with insulating section, supported by glazing gaskets and weatherstrips

  • Secure glazing: Standard and Prestige closed-form glazing beads ensure firm glass retention, making it easier to achieve burglary-resistant designs

  • Refined interior look: deeply recessed internal glazing gaskets remain discreet and barely visible from the inside

  • Large format capability: maximum sash height of 2.7 m, width of 1.7 m, and sash weight up to 160 kg

  • Flexible glazing options: supports glass thicknesses from 1.5 to 44.5 mm in the frame and 12 to 52.5 mm in the sash, allowing the use of virtually all standard single, double, acoustic, and burglary-resistant glass types

  • Hardware compatibility: equipped with standard Euro-type grooves, making it suitable for most aluminium and PVC fittings, including concealed AluPilot hardware from Winkhaus; handles can be fitted with or without rosettes

  • System integration: fully compatible with other solutions from the MB-79N family, enabling interchangeable use of glazing beads, gaskets, hardware, and most accessories

We have used SBW on several occasions over the years and always found their services very good, hence I’m a repeat customer. I’ve had bifold and sliding patio doors, front door, other exterior doors and replacement double glazing windows. Quality products, great customer service and aftercare.

Was very impressed both by the service and the product. After a bad experience with a previous window company, which you could feel the draft coming through after one month of instalation, I was skeptical to try different company. I am thrilled I found SBW GROUP. I had my windows done in April 2024 and the quality is above my expectations. The installation team was very organised, professional and considerate and we are very pleased with the results. Highly recommend them.
