CAMEC is the manufacturer of :
1) Australite windows (previously called Starlite
windows) Models: Galaxy, Jupiter, Odyssey
2) Slimline Windout windows.
3) Slimline Sliding windows.
4) Odyssey Premium windows
CAMEC manufactures the Australite and Slimline Caravan Windows in Melbourne.
These are fixed to the outside of the RV wall and have been around in Australia since the early 1970's. The materials and appearance has evolved, however the size has stayed the same and all current parts will fit older windows.
Above: The opening in your wall must be the same as the quoted size of the window. We always express the height of windows first. This size provides a slight tolerance for the insert of window trim mould on the inside.
These windows have radius corners of 70mm at the bottom.
These windows are fixed from the outside of your RV. Common methods are Stainless steel screws or Rivets. They require the addition of a seal between the window and the outside wall. We recommend the application of an adhesive backed, closed cell foam tape.
This is placed onto the back lip of the window, set back a couple of mm's from the outside edge. The top section of tape should be in one piece and extend to the very ends. The width of the tape should be 12mm, and the thickness depends on the surface profile of your cladding. Eg. Flat surface requires 3mm thick (min) and a profile of 9mm would require a minimum of 12mm thick.
The distances above also show how far the winder will intrude into the inside of your RV, based on the external face of your wall.
These are clamped to the walls without any external exposed fixing.
Fitting instructions and profile cross sections are available in this downloadable PDF

How do take the handle off the control box

I have a leaking window and suspect that it is the seal where the window fits onto the van is allowing water into the van on the inside where the wall board is wet. I will replace the outside seal to see if this fixes the problem. I can’t see it leaks anywhere else. Do you have the 12mmx12mm thickness tape

We have a water leak in our Australite window winder. Can you suggest what the solution might be to stop the leak.

could you please provide me with a how to reinstall australite window components. I have 2 control boxes, new rod and link boxes but am struggling to reinstall these and get the arms to be aligned completely.

Hi, I am restoring a vintage caravan, similar shape to these windows, but very basic. I have replaced the existing glass to polycarbonate and re sealed in and out, which took alot of perserverence. Internally I have replaced the rotted timber frame and framed it up in aluminium channel, now about to re install the windows with sikaflex. My question to you is; Should I be using pot rivets to fix the windows in, given its now alum channels, they were originally screw fixed into the timber. If you could please shed some light on this as I am totally unsure - thanking you in advance.
