Product Information

Full details

The UKLintels External Solid Wall HD Channel Lintel (SL200 CH) is designed for professional builders and contractors tasked with supporting heavy loads in 200-215mm solid wall construction. It provides exceptional structural stability for concrete floors, masonry, and trusses, making it a reliable choice for load-bearing applications; however, users should note that its heavy-duty nature requires precise installation planning and lifting equipment due to its weight and rigid form factor.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the SL200 CH lintel?

It is designed to support heavy structural loads, including concrete floors and timber trusses, in 200-215mm solid wall applications.

Can this be used for timber floor joists?

Yes, it is explicitly engineered to provide structural support for timber floor joists and attic trusses.

What does the 1:1 load ratio mean?

The 1:1 load ratio indicates a balanced design for heavy-duty structural support, ensuring the lintel can effectively handle equivalent loads distributed across its span.

Is this lintel suitable for steel beam support?

Yes, it is designed to handle point loads, including those generated by steel beams and compound trusses.

Do I need special equipment to install this?

Due to its heavy-duty steel construction, it is recommended to use appropriate lifting equipment to position the lintel safely.

Troubleshooting

Lintel appears uneven during installation

Check that the supporting masonry bed is perfectly level and adjust the mortar thickness accordingly.

Difficulty in aligning with existing brickwork

Verify the wall thickness is within the 200-215mm tolerance and ensure no debris is obstructing the cavity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent structural integrity for heavy load-bearing requirements
  • Tailored specifically for standard 200-215mm solid wall dimensions
  • Highly versatile for both timber and concrete support applications
  • Durable design ensures long-term building stability

Cons

  • Requires mechanical lifting assistance due to weight
  • Limited to solid wall masonry applications
  • Requires precise structural calculations for point loads

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional in accordance with local building regulations. Ensure the wall is prepared with a clean, level bed of mortar before placing the lintel. The SL200 CH is compatible with standard 200-215mm masonry units. For maintenance, while the lintel is designed for longevity within the wall structure, ensure that any damp-proof courses (DPC) are correctly positioned to prevent moisture ingress. Regularly inspect the surrounding brickwork for signs of shifting or cracking post-installation to ensure the structural load remains evenly distributed.
