Catnic ANG Lintel - Single Leaf Steel

The Catnic ANG Lintel is specifically designed to accommodate the requirements of all thin joint wall constructions, including external cavity, internal partition, and party walls.

Yes, the lintel is designed to help reduce thermal bridging at window head locations, contributing to improved thermal performance and energy efficiency.

Yes, for standard duty loading applications, the ANG lintels should be suitably propped and laterally restrained during construction until the masonry above has cured.

Duplex Corrosion Protection refers to an advanced coating system that provides enhanced resistance to corrosion, helping to ensure the long-term durability and lifespan of the lintel.

Yes, the standard product is suitable for all possible cavity widths, offering versatility in construction projects.

Standard lengths are available in increments of 150mm up to 3000mm, and 300mm for lengths between 3000mm and 3900mm. The specific product discussed is 2100mm.

This specific lintel is designed for standard duty loading applications. For heavy-duty requirements, it is essential to consult specific load tables or engineering advice to ensure the correct product selection.

Ensure that the lintel is adequately propped along its entire length. Verify that the props are correctly positioned, stable, and not overloaded. Also, check that lateral restraint is properly applied to prevent any horizontal movement or twisting.

Before the mortar cures, use a spirit level to check the lintel's alignment. Adjust propping or the mortar bed as necessary. Ensure the supporting masonry is also level and plumb.

The lintel is specifically designed for thin joint systems. Ensure the correct thin joint mortar is being used and that the lintel is bedded precisely to match the thin joint layers. Avoid forcing the lintel into an incorrect alignment.

The lintel features Duplex Corrosion Protection. Ensure this protective coating was not damaged during handling or installation. If minor abrasions occurred, consider applying a compatible protective paint for touch-up, following manufacturer's guidelines (Info needed: specific touch-up product recommendations).
