Westwood 250-C Hardware

General: Some of the standard hardware is constructed of coated steel and will perform well in corrosive environments with regular Care & Maintenance.  Failure to provide special care will result in premature degradation. Even stainless steel components require regular care and maintenance to ensure a long life.
Rotogear Operator & Multi-Point Lock Lever: The standard "brushed silver" rotogear operator and multi-point locking lever are constructed of plated zinc and will therefore need regular care. Optional colors (black, white, & grey) are painted zinc and will perform better in corrosive applications.
Rotogear Mechanism & Arms: The standard rotogear mechanism and arms are made of coated steel and will therefore need regular care. Stainless steel is not an option at this time. We recommend the Everest in corrosive environments or the Optional Cam Handle & 4-Bar Hinge system. See below.
Multi-Point Slide Rod: The standard concealed operating rod is constructed of stainless steel and is operated by the multi-point locking lever.
Butt Hinges: The standard butt hinges are constructed of extruded aluminum and stainless steel bushings. Each hinge is factory finished to match the window frame.
Optional Cam Handle & 4-Bar Hinges: The optional 4-bar hinges are made of stainless steel and are concealed when the vent is closed. The "brushed silver" cam handle is made of brushed copper nickel and will perform better, with regular care, than the standard plated or painted zinc hardware.
