C. Tube: The fabric shades shall be mounted on to 1 ¼”, 1 ½”, 2”, or 2 ½” diameter aluminum tube depending on the width of the shade and fabric chosen for the shade.

D. Bead Chain Clutch: The clutch incorporates an adjustable slip clutch to control the rate of fall from free running zero friction factor to a factor of 100%. The shade may be adjusted to stop and hold at any position. The bead chain shall contain automatic stops to prevent the shade from over winding or unrolling off the tube. The bead chain may be either PVC or metal ball type.

E. Easy Lift™: This option is added to all shades that are over 30 pounds.

H. Side (Sill) Channels (Option): Extruded aluminum channel through which each side of a shade travels to create blackout application. The rails shall contain soft brushes on a minimum of one side depending on application to enclose the fabric shade in a light tight condition. The side and bottom channels should be installed in a light bead of caulking to prevent light penetrations.

I. Fascia System (Option): All fascia systems shall be prime painted with baked enamel utilizing the powder paint method to ensure an environmental friendly application. Wet paint method shall not be accepted.
