Introducing: The Latest Innovation from Ultrafab

UltraMask™ Pile weatherseals designed with a tear away
protective covering for use when painting PVC Profiles

UltraMask™ is designed to maintain a protective barrier around the pile seal during the multi-step process used in the painting of vinyl profiles.

Product works with major painting systems now in use throughout North America.

Covering will stay attached through secondary processes of assembly after painting.

Once covering is no longer needed, it can be easily pulled off the pile. The pile maintains important performance properties that result in a Class “A” AAMA 701 rating.

Product has a clear covering that allows the user to make sure they are using the right color pile, or type of pile.

Product is compatible with Ultrafab's industry leading insertion machinery.

Here's What the UltraMask™ Product Can Do
For Your Vinyl Painting Process

  • Reduce or eliminate labor intensive masking of profiles
  • Increase the throughput of your painting process – Make more windows & doors
  • Reduce lead- time to your customer for your added value painted products
  • Eliminate the need for expensive painter grade masking tape
  • Eliminate paint on pile that can create an inferior seal and reduce your window or door performance
  • Eliminate the entire step of re-inserting pile after painting
  • Reduce the need for rework due to painted surfaces getting damaged during secondary operations, including re-insertion of pile

The unique patent pending construction of UltraMask™ will give you sharp looking painted profiles with pile that looks like it was inserted after painting.
