The UKLintels SL200 External Solid Wall T Section Lintel is a high-performance structural component designed for professional builders and contractors working on 200-215mm solid wall masonry projects. Providing exceptional load-bearing capacity for everything from concrete floors to heavy roof trusses, this lintel is an ideal choice for high-demand structural support; however, it requires precise installation planning due to its 2700mm length and specific load-ratio requirements.

No, the SL200 is specifically designed for 200-215mm external solid wall applications.
It is not recommended to cut the lintel, as this will alter its structural integrity and weight-bearing specifications.
The lintel is manufactured from high-grade structural steel designed for long-term load support.
Standard structural practice requires a minimum of 150mm bearing on each side of the opening, but always check your local building control specifications.
It comes treated for durability, but applying a protective coating may be necessary if it will be exposed to highly corrosive environments.
Adjust the supporting masonry courses; do not attempt to force the lintel level with shims as this affects load distribution.
Verify that the load applied does not exceed the manufacturer's specified 1:1 ratio and that the bearing length on either side of the opening meets local building regulations.
Installation of the 2700mm SL200 requires a stable scaffolding platform and adequate lifting assistance or mechanical equipment. Before installation, ensure the mortar bed is leveled correctly to prevent stress points on the steel. Compatibility is restricted to 200-215mm wall thicknesses; attempting to use this in narrower or wider wall systems will compromise the load path. Maintenance involves periodic inspection of the external finish; if signs of corrosion appear due to environmental exposure, clean the affected area and apply a suitable anti-corrosive coating to preserve the structural steel.
