The UKLintels SL200 T-Section Lintel is designed for professional builders and contractors working with 200-215mm external solid wall masonry. It delivers exceptional structural reliability for demanding load-bearing scenarios, though its heavy-duty design requires precise installation planning due to its specialized T-section geometry and weight. This lintel is engineered to support a diverse range of structural elements, including concrete floor loads, roof trusses, and heavy masonry work, providing a durable, long-lasting foundation for residential or commercial construction projects.

No, this specific model is designed for 200-215mm external solid walls and will not function correctly in a cavity wall construction.
The SL200 features a 1:1 load ratio, but total capacity depends on the span and the nature of the load; please consult your project's structural engineer for specific load tables.
The lintel is manufactured for exterior use, but it should be correctly weathered and incorporated into the masonry per standard building practices.
Structural modifications are generally not recommended. Any alteration may void the load-bearing rating of the component.
The standard minimum end bearing for this lintel is 150mm on each side.
Adjust the mortar bed beneath the bearing ends rather than shimming the lintel itself; ensure the support masonry is plumb.
Verify that the opening width is exactly 1200mm or less to maintain the required 150mm bearing surface at each end.
For optimal performance, ensure that the masonry beneath the bearing ends of the lintel is solid and level. The lintel should have a minimum end bearing of 150mm at each end unless specified otherwise by the structural engineer. When installing, use a full mortar bed and ensure the T-section is oriented correctly according to the load requirements. Avoid cutting or drilling into the lintel, as this may compromise its structural integrity. Regularly inspect for signs of moisture ingress or corrosion if the lintel is exposed during the construction phase, and ensure it is properly weathered into the wall construction to prevent long-term environmental degradation.
