Product Information

Full details

The StrataRise Self-Levelling Pedestal is designed for DIYers and professionals needing to create perfectly level flooring or decking on uneven surfaces. Its key benefit is the automatic slope compensation, allowing for quick and precise installations without complex adjustments. A potential caveat is the need for extension pieces for heights exceeding 66mm, which are sold separately.

FAQs

What is the maximum height achievable with these pedestals?

The standard height range is 41mm to 66mm. This can be extended using StrataRise QuickClick bayonet fitting extension pieces, allowing for heights of 500mm or more as required.

Can these pedestals be used on a waterproof membrane?

Yes, an optional 3mm thick anti-slip rubber base ring is available. This is recommended for use on membranes to prevent damage and reduce noise transmission.

What is the load capacity of a single pedestal?

Each StrataRise 4166ML self-levelling pedestal is rated to withstand loads of 650Kg, even at its weakest setting (maximum height adjustment with minimal thread engagement).

How do I ensure the joists are stable on the pedestal head?

The pedestal head is designed to accept joists up to 3" (75mm) wide. For wider joists, it is recommended to place alternate pedestals from opposite sides of the joist. Always ensure the joist is properly seated.

Do I need to remove the joist to adjust the height?

No, the threaded adjustment ring allows for height adjustments to be made easily without removing the joists, which significantly speeds up installation.

How far apart should I space the pedestals?

For most projects, the normal spacing for the 4166ML-SL-DF is at 500 to 600mm centres. This spacing can help optimize the number of units required.

What surfaces are these pedestals suitable for?

The large 200mm (8”) base plate provides stable support on most surfaces, including concrete, paving slabs, and compacted ground. For membranes, the optional anti-slip base ring is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Pedestal does not seem to level automatically.

Ensure the slope is within the 0° to 5° range. The self-levelling feature compensates for gradual slopes; very sharp inclines may require manual adjustment or alternative solutions.

Difficulty adjusting height.

Ensure the threaded adjustment ring is clean and free from debris. If resistance persists, check that the joist is not excessively forcing the mechanism. Remove the joist temporarily for adjustment if needed.

Joist is wider than the pedestal head.

For joists wider than 3" (75mm), straddle the joist by placing alternative pedestals from opposite sides of the joist for balanced support.

Instability after installation.

Verify that the base plate is fully in contact with a stable surface. Ensure all pedestals are adjusted to the correct height and that the joists are securely seated. Check that the spacing between pedestals is appropriate for the load.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Automatically levels slopes up to 5 degrees.
  • Quick and easy height adjustment mechanism.
  • Stable and robust base for various surfaces.
  • High load-bearing capacity.
  • Can significantly reduce installation time and material costs.

Cons

  • Extension pieces required for heights above 66mm are sold separately.
  • Wider joists (over 3"/75mm) may require specific placement of pedestals.
  • The 5° slope compensation might not be sufficient for very steep inclines.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the pedestal on the desired surface.
  2. For uneven or membrane surfaces, consider using the optional anti-slip rubber base ring.
  3. Place the joist or beam onto the pedestal head.
  4. Use the threaded adjustment ring to raise or lower the head to the required height and ensure it is level.
  5. If required, attach extension pieces before placing the joist.
  6. For joists wider than 3" (75mm), consider placing alternate pedestals from opposite sides of the joist for adequate support.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for joists up to 3" (75mm) wide.
  • Compatible with StrataRise QuickClick bayonet fitting extension pieces for increased height.
  • Designed for use on most stable surfaces, including concrete, pavers, and membranes (with optional base ring).

Care:

  • Keep pedestals clean from dirt and debris.
  • Periodically check for any damage or wear, especially to the adjustment threads.
  • Clean with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals.
