CTC 316 Reducer
The CTC 316 Reducer is what we consider to be a soft surface trim: the 316 Reducer is a metal transition with a lip that reduces from 3/16” carpet to 0”. This anodized aluminum reducer is best suited for soft surface applications in commercial construction; it offers a far more durable solution than rubber and is ADA compliant. Our CTC Reducers can be both mechanically fastened into or glued on concrete with a construction adhesive, and both can be used with existing flooring or new construction.
From left to right: Anodized Aluminum (Clear), Champagne (CHA), Light Bronze (BZ), Medium Bronze (MB), Dark Bronze (DB) and Black (BLK). Not all finish options are stock items, some are custom colors. Fasteners included are not available in colors. Please call for more information. What is Anodizing?
