To whom it may concern:
Vista System extrusions are made from alloy 6063. The chemical makeup of the alloy 6063 and
the mechanical specifications after thermal treatment have been determined by the American
specification QQ-A-200/9D; and the German specification DIN 1725. The extruded extrusions are
inspected for their geometry, per tolerances that are internationally accepted: BS EN 755-9:2001,
and BS EN 12020:2001. Strength testing is per German specification DIN 50125. The strength
measurement determined meet the American specification QQ-A-200/9D or the German
specification DIN-1748 and DIN 1746.

Anodise Coating:
Electrochemical treatment creates an oxide of Sulphur on the outer surface of the extrusion. The
process is performed in an electrically conductive solution; the process ends with a sealing. The
thickness of the anodisation is typically 10-30 microns. The integrity of the anodise coating is tested
to international specifications ISO 2143-1981.

Stability of the colour of the anodise process is tested per American STEM G-53-1988.
The degree of colour stability is tested per international specification ISO 105 A02-1993

Painting:
Colour: Polyester powder. Colour suppliers holding international standards GSB
Surface preparation: Chromate aestivation per American Specification MIL-C-5541E
Painting: Performed electro statically (One coat).
Curing: Curing is done in a curing oven (180 +190C) per the powder manufacturer's specification.
(Available upon request)

Testing of the painted coating is performed per Israeli Specification 4402 part 2, that is based on
British specification BS-6496-1984, including coating testing for weather conditions; which are
tested to specification ASTM G-53-1988.

Warranty:
Lifetime; under normal working conditions.
