Uptec Pedestals for floating floor

Uptec is a patented system made of recycled polypropylene that allows the creation of raised floors in ceramic, natural stone, agglomerates or wood, using only 3 principal components with a minimum height of 28 mm.

The product is adjustable (with the key supplied) through a threaded system that allows it to cover a first range of heights, then through a modular element it is possible to reach greater heights simply by adding a component (the modular ring).

Uptec has a mechanism that is activated through a ring nut that rotates on the head that allows to switch from a system with self-levelling head (indicated for making the slope on inclined surfaces that you want to make flat) to one with fixed head indicated where the self-levelling system does not it works correctly because of the unbalanced action on the head of the foot of the floor surface (along the perimeter of the installation where it is necessary to cut the slabs and therefore elements of different weight are found to act in an unbalanced way on the foot).

The product can be used to create applications with joints between the floor elements of 2 or 4 mm, rather than for the installation of wooden floors on a wooden joist or ceramic slabs on aluminium joists, simply by changing the "flap" accessory.

The load resistance of the product is approximately 14 kN (1,400 Kg) (with small variations between the different models depending on the field of application in which it is tested), much higher than the breaking load of traditional ceramic tiles which is about 7kN (700Kg).

Resistance is guaranteed for a temperature range between -20 ° C and 75 ° C. The product has a two-component rubber on the head which allows noise reduction from 77dB to 52dB and it has a base with comfortable pre-cuts that allow easy installation in the edges and corners. The system is equipped with a complete series of perimeter profiles that allow you to finish the raised floors in an elegant and safe way through profiles and perimeter edges.

The UPTEC family consists of 2 types of pedestals: the SUPAL model which has a height range of 28-43mm; the SUPAS model which in the starting configuration has a range of 43 - 58mm, but could reach 538mm with the addition of supplementary rings (SUPAR)
