NEXUS SPIDERS
NEXUS is a name synonymous with Point Fixed Glazing system. This product has successfully been installed in many prestigious projects all over the world. NEXUS GLAZING: Also known as spider Glazing products, including spiders, routels, pressure pipes, tension rope and rods etc. See www.nexusglazing.com
NEXUS System is made from International Standard Quality Stainless Steel AISI 316 & AISI 304. Our team is highly experienced in point fixed curtain walls, adjustable suspended glass curtain wall, tension rod / cable point fixed curtain wall system. We also specialize in designing custom made accessories as per the special requirement.
Fully Spider fitting frame-less glass curtain walls, connect glass together to light steel structures with various types of spider fitting members to form flexible and unobstructed curtain wall façade. Fully spider fitted glass curtain walls are structurally as safe as a normal curtain wall, eliminating many of its disadvantages of rigidity in design and monolithic structure. This results in an unobstructed, neat, bright and integrated façade with such advantages as safety, practicality and artistic taste for contemporary architecture.
The unique feature of spider fitting glass system lies in its flexibility, forming a structure that enables glass to bend under wind pressure reducing stresses due to the deflection in the glass which may be caused under heavy wind conditions. This makes it possible to use very large glasses which would not be possible with the traditional system of holding the glasses.
Revolutionary Façade Design: NEXUS BOLTED GLASS SYSTEM acts as a transition between the inside of a building and the outside or a partition between two interior sections. A technologically advanced product which is easy to set up and is perfect for contemporary architecture creating visually large spaces.

Excellent adaptation to local requirements.
Full daylight on all sides.
Double and single glazing.
Good thermal insulation with 16mm airspace in double glazing.
A solution to more and more architectural and structural needs.
Point Fixing Bolts:
These are also known as Routels, Articulated Bolts, Swivel bolts etc.
Point Fixing Bolts are of two types: Fixed and Swivel.
These can be used for fixing single glazing and/or double glazing of various thicknesses.
These Bolts are made in Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grade, on special request other grades can also be provided.
Spiders:
Different shapes, dimensions for a wide variety of specifications are available.
Center to center dimensions vary according to the wind load and stress requirements.
The shapes in X, H etc. are available for different visual impact.
Different types of fixing arrangements like fin type, structure fixing types are also available.
Spiders are available in Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grades.
Tension Rod/Cable:
Tension cables structures are also known as Wire Rope structures.
Tension Rod and tension cable structures are used for giving a very light weight look to the glass Façade. Different diameters are available for different load requirements.
Tension rod/Cables are available in Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grade.
Conditions for use:
It is strictly prohibited to use above 320ºC
Tension Rods/cables should not be cut or bent while in use.
Anti-corrosive measures should be taken when they are used in corrosive environment.
Pressure Pipe:
These are also known as tension rod truss.
This is used along with tension rods and tension cables and is the main element for the tension rod or tension cable structure. The length, diameter and fixing arrangements are provided as per the requirements of the project specifications. Pressure Pipes are available in Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grade.
Accessories:
Accessories and odd fittings required for the entire structure are also available. Some of these parts
are custom designed and made for specific projects. The material used depends on the specific
requirements of the project or the application. Some of the parts are Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grade, however MS, Carbon Steel etc is also used for different applications.
Balustrades and Canopies:
Balustrades and Canopies in a combination of glass and Stainless Steel have become an integral part of contemporary architectural designs for exterior and interior. A wide variety of designs, shapes, accessories and fittings are available. These are made in Stainless Steel 304 or 316 Grades.
