Color cap system for locking strip gaskets

摘要

A system is disclosed to add color to a locking strip gasket curtainwall having a plurality of vertical and horizontal gasket strips; each gasket strip having an outer periphery. The system comprises a mechanism for covering the vertical and horizontal gasket strips. The covering mechanism has an inner periphery having a shape substantially corresponding to the outer periphery of the gasket strips to be adapted to abut the gasket strip. A member projects from the inner periphery of the covering mechanism to secure the covering mechanism into the locking strip cavities of the gasket strips. This member replaces the conventional locking strip. A pigmented mechanism is coupled with the covering mechanism to provide the covering mechanism with a tinted aesthetic appearance.
