Product Information
Full details
The UKLintels Cavity Wall Lintel is a high-performance structural component designed for builders and contractors managing masonry construction. It provides essential support for 100-115mm inner leaves and 100mm outer leaves, effectively handling standard masonry and uniformly distributed timber floor or roof loads. While this component offers exceptional reliability for standard cavity wall configurations, it is not suitable for applications involving precast concrete floors, heavy point loads, or attic trusses.

Troubleshooting
Lintel appears slightly bowed or deformed upon delivery.
Verify that no heavy point loads were placed on the unit during transit. If deformation is present, contact the supplier before installation.
Masonry is not seating evenly on the lintel.
Ensure the mortar bed is correctly applied and the lintel is leveled using a spirit level across the entire 1950mm span.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation is critical for the safety of the wall structure. Ensure the lintel is seated with the correct end-bearing length, typically a minimum of 150mm on each side of the opening, unless otherwise specified by a structural engineer.
- Compatibility: Check that your wall configuration falls within the 100-115mm inner leaf and 100mm outer leaf parameters.
- Installation: Use appropriate mortar bedding to ensure the lintel is level and fully supported across its length.
- Maintenance: Periodically inspect the visible areas of the lintel during the construction phase to ensure no damage has occurred during installation. Keep the steel free from excessive moisture exposure during the construction phase to prevent surface corrosion before the masonry is completed.
