The ALAKS TS115 Plastic End Cap (Code 3170115) is an integral component in the standard assembly of TS115 sliding and Lift‑and‑Slide window systems. Precisely engineered to cover cut profile sections, it completes the visual finish and delivers a clean, professional appearance. Its key function is to prevent dust, moisture, and contaminants from entering internal profile cavities, helping protect hardware components and maintain the long‑term performance and durability of the window system.

This product has only one variant.

Description

Alaks TS115 Sliding Plastic End Cover

The TS115 plastic end cap is one of the essential and practical components used in the assembly of sliding and lift and slide doors and windows of the TS115 series. This component is designed to cover the cut ends of aluminum profiles and, in addition to creating a clean and professional appearance, plays a critical role in preventing the entry of dust, moisture, and contaminants into the internal cavities of the profiles.
In aluminum sliding systems, the ends of the profiles remain open after cutting and assembly. If these areas are not properly sealed, they can become an entry point for dirt, moisture, and even insects into the profile structure. The use of the TS115 plastic end cap ensures that these areas are fully covered, protecting the internal structure of the profile against environmental factors.
This end cap is exclusively designed for TS115 system profiles and is fully compatible with the geometry and dimensions of this system. As a result, during installation, the cap fits precisely without looseness, delivering a clean, standard, and professional final appearance.

Role of the TS115 End Cap in Sliding Window Performance:

Although end caps may appear to be small components, they have a significant impact on the overall performance of the window. Using a proper end cap ensures that:
•   The ends of aluminum profiles are fully sealed
•   Dust, moisture, and contaminants are prevented from entering the profile
•   The final appearance of the window is clean, uniform, and professional
•   The service life of the structure and hardware is increased
•   Assembly quality remains fully compliant with system standards
In large construction projects or high dimension lift and slide windows, the importance of using standard complementary components such as this end cap becomes even greater, as even minor gaps can negatively affect long term performance.

Material and Build Quality:

The TS115 plastic end cap is manufactured from high quality engineering plastic resistant to impact, scratches, and wear. This material provides excellent durability while maintaining resistance to environmental conditions such as temperature changes, humidity, and sunlight exposure.
The design of the pins and connection elements ensures firm fixation during installation, creating a stable and long lasting connection. This prevents breakage or detachment caused by frequent opening and closing of the sashes or potential impacts.

Difference Between Alaks End Covers and Common Market Alternatives:

One common issue with many end caps available on the market is the use of recycled or low grade plastic materials. This often leads to reduced strength, brittle fixing pins, and discoloration over time.
In contrast, Alaks end caps are manufactured using virgin, non recycled raw materials, offering several key advantages:
•   Higher impact resistance during installation
•   Prevention of pin breakage during fitting
•   Long term shape stability and strength
•   Resistance to discoloration and material degradation
These qualities make Alaks end caps highly reliable for professional projects and industrial production.

Technical Specifications of the TS115 End Cover:

•   Component name: Aluminum Profile End Cover
•   Technical code: 3170115
•   Compatible system: TS115
•   Application: Sliding and lift and slide systems
•   Material: Impact resistant engineering plastic
•   Function: Profile end sealing, contamination prevention, visual completion

Installation of the TS115 Plastic End Cover:

Installation is typically performed at the end of the aluminum profile and is generally secured using a 3.9 mm self drilling screw. The precise dimensional design allows for fast installation without the need for modifications or adjustments.

Related Components in the TS115 System:

In four leaf sliding systems, in addition to the end cap, the use of the TS115 four leaf center cap is also recommended. This component, with technical code 3170116, is installed at the meeting point of the middle sashes and fully covers the central gap of the window. Using these components together improves assembly quality, enhances sealing performance, and ensures a uniform appearance.
