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.

It is designed to support heavy structural loads, including concrete floors and timber trusses, in 200-215mm solid wall applications.
Yes, it is explicitly engineered to provide structural support for timber floor joists and attic trusses.
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.
Yes, it is designed to handle point loads, including those generated by steel beams and compound trusses.
Due to its heavy-duty steel construction, it is recommended to use appropriate lifting equipment to position the lintel safely.
Check that the supporting masonry bed is perfectly level and adjust the mortar thickness accordingly.
Verify the wall thickness is within the 200-215mm tolerance and ensure no debris is obstructing the cavity.
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.
