The Birtley LA Steel Lintel is designed specifically for use in single leaf external walls. Constructed from high-strength mild steel (S275JR), this lintel provides a robust solution for standard duty applications, supporting a safe working load (SWL) of 6kN. With a hot dip galvanised finish of 65 µm, it offers exceptional corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity and reliability in various construction conditions.
Equipped with unique features such as a lack of baseplate and factory-fitted insulation, this lintel significantly reduces thermal bridging, enhancing building energy efficiency. The post-fabrication galvanising guarantees that no surface is left with inferior paint protection. Ideal for both trade professionals and DIY enthusiasts, the Birtley LA Steel Lintel ensures structural integrity while simplifying installation.
