Aluminum glazing beads are thin strips of aluminum that surround and secure glazing materials, such as glass panes, within window frames. They play a critical role in ensuring that the glass is held firmly in place while also offering protection against external elements such as moisture, wind, and dust. Typically installed during the manufacturing process of windows, these beads can be found in various styles and finishes to suit different architectural designs.
