SPE Adjustable Glass Point Holder

ARGESAN® SPE Adjustable Glass Point Holder – Advanced Engineering Solution for Precision Architectural Glazing

The ARGESAN® SPE Adjustable Glass Point Holder is a premium stainless-steel connector specifically engineered to meet the performance, adjustment flexibility, and long-term durability required in modern architectural glass systems. Developed using ARGESAN®’s deep expertise in metal processing, precision CNC machining, and facade-system engineering, this adjustable point holder provides unmatched installation versatility and aesthetic refinement.

Unlike standard non-adjustable point holders, the SPE Adjustable Glass Holder integrates a highly sophisticated internal adjustment mechanism supported by a slot-type mounting system. This dual-adjustment architecture enables both 0–5 mm forward/backward fine-tuning and multi-directional alignment (horizontal & vertical) during installation. These features ensure flawless alignment even in cases where structural steel, aluminum profiles, or glass panels have manufacturing tolerances, cutting variations, or on-site dimensional inconsistencies.

 

Material Excellence and Mechanical Construction

High-Grade AISI 304 Stainless Steel

The SPE model is manufactured entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance, high structural stability, and long-lasting performance in both interior and exterior architectural environments. Its seamless cylindrical body, deep-threaded internal core, and perfectly machined cap threads reflect ARGESAN®’s advanced production standards.

 

Precision CNC Machined Components

Every element of the SPE connector—including the central threaded core, sliding mechanism, adjustment screw, and removable caps—is produced using high-precision CNC machining. This ensures:

• Zero tolerance deviations
• Perfect symmetry and surface quality
• Superior structural integrity
• Smooth adjustment capability without friction or jamming

The meticulous machining of the internal chamber guarantees a stable and vibration-free adjustment motion, crucial for architectural projects involving heavy or oversized tempered/laminated glass.

 

Adjustment System and Functional Advantages

±5 mm Forward–Backward Adjustment

The hallmark feature of the SPE series is its ±5 mm adjustment capability. This micro-adjustment is essential in:

• Aligning glass panels where minor cutting differences exist
• Correcting facade alignment deviations
• Compensating for mounting surface irregularities
• Achieving tight and uniform shadow gaps across an entire facade

This feature significantly reduces installation time by allowing installers to correct slight discrepancies without needing to recut glass or modify the steel substructure.

Slot-Type Multi-Directional Adjustment

The rear washer includes a precision-engineered slot opening, allowing installers to shift the point holder horizontally or vertically. With this slot design, the installer can:

• Move the holder slightly left/right
• Shift upward/downward
• Achieve perfect symmetry between panels
• Correct axis misalignments in multi-panel systems

This adjustability is critical for glass balustrades, commercial facades, showroom partitions, and high-precision interior glazing.

Hidden Tightening Options: Front or Side

The SPE Adjustable Glass Point Holder is available in two tightening configurations:

1. Front tightening (hex key inside the cap) – discreet, minimal, easy to access
2. Side tightening (miniature locking screw on the cap) – completely smooth front face for maximum aesthetic purity

Both options maintain a clean, modern, and screwless visual profile—ideal for luxury architectural applications.

 

Non-Drop Gasket System for Efficient Installation

One of the most praised engineering enhancements in this product is the non-drop gasket system, where the plastic gaskets used between the glass and the holder are permanently seated in the metal body. This prevents:

• Gaskets from falling during installation
• Loss of components on site
• Misalignment caused by uneven gasket placement

Installers particularly value this feature because it:

• Allows single-person installation
• Increases installation speed
• Eliminates common mistakes during glass placement

Aesthetics, Minimalism, and Architectural Harmony

The external design of the SPE model reflects minimalist architectural trends. Whether used in modern retail stores, hotel lobbies, office partitions, or full-height glazing systems, the smooth polished or satin-brushed surface enhances the feeling of tranSPErency and visual lightness.

Key aesthetic advantages:

• No visible screws
• Clean circular design
• Uniform stainless-steel finishing
• High reflectivity in mirror-polish option
• Soft and elegant appearance in satin-brushed option

ARGESAN’s high-end finishing process ensures excellent consistency even across large project quantities.

 

Structural Security and Load-Bearing Performance

Even though the SPE model focuses heavily on adjustment and aesthetics, it does not compromise structural integrity. Its solid stainless-steel body and deep-threaded core provide excellent load-bearing capacity in:

• Tempered glass facades
• Laminated glass balustrades
• Interior frameless walls
• Canopy glazing systems

The combination of mechanical strength and adjustable precision makes SPE suitable for both small architectural applications and demanding commercial projects.

 

Technical Architecture and Internal Components of the ARGESAN® SPE Adjustable Holder

The SPE Adjustable Glass Point Holder is engineered with a far more advanced internal structure compared to traditional fixed point holders. This design provides superior alignment capabilities, ultra-fine adjustment behavior, and exceptional structural stability during both installation and long-term operational use.

 

Primary Body Construction

The main body is manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel, offering:

• High tensile strength
• Corrosion resistance
• Perfect cylindrical geometry
• Flawless surface finish (satin or mirror polish)

The interior features deeply machined CNC threads, allowing the adjustment core to move smoothly while maintaining structural rigidity under load.

 

0–5 mm Micro Adjustment Mechanism

This internal mechanism is one of the defining innovations of the SPE series.

Benefits of the ±5 mm adjustment range:

• Compensates for glass cutting imperfections
• Corrects structural deviations in steel/aluminum frames
• Maintains perfect alignment in multi-panel facades
• Eliminates the need for re-cutting glass
• Reduces installation time significantly

Adjustment is performed using an M6 hex key, providing excellent torque transmission and precise control.

Slot-Type Alignment System (Horizontal + Vertical)

The rear slot washer enables sliding in both horizontal and vertical directions.

This system provides:

• Left-right micro movement
• Up-down leveling
• Panel symmetry corrections
• Perfect straightness across long facade lines

Slot adjustment is a critical feature for professional facade installers who demand millimetric precision.

 

Non-Drop Gasket System

ARGESAN® developed a unique “non-drop gasket” design that ensures the gasket elements remain attached to the body during installation.

Advantages:

• Prevents loss of gasket parts
• Speeds up installation
• Ensures equal pressure distribution on the glass
• Eliminates common installation errors

This system is one of the main reasons why professionals prefer the SPE model over standard adjustable holders.

 

Premium Cover Designs

Two cover styles are available:

Front-Tightening Cover (Hex-Key Type)

• Easy access
