The Catnic ANG Lintel Single Leaf Steel is specifically designed for supporting openings in angled single leaf external masonry walls. It offers a robust, corrosion-resistant solution for brickwork between 100-102mm, ensuring structural integrity for spans ranging from 900mm to 3900mm. While highly effective for its intended application, users must ensure correct load calculations and bearing support for optimal performance.
Angled Single Leaf Design: Specifically engineered for external walls with an angled single leaf masonry construction. - Wide Span Range: Accommodates openings from 900mm up to 3900mm, providing flexibility for various architectural designs. - Brickwork Compatibility: Perfectly suited for standard 100-102mm outer leaf brickwork. - Standard Duty Load Rating: Capable of supporting loads up to 15kN, suitable for most residential and light commercial applications. - Corrosion Protection: Features an integral corrosion-resistant coating, with galvanised (up to 2400mm) or black powder-coated (2550mm+) finishes for enhanced durability. - BS EN 845-2 Certified: Meets stringent European standards for masonry ancillary components, ensuring quality and performance. - Manufacturer: Produced by Catnic, a reputable brand known for building components.

The Catnic ANG Lintel is engineered for a very specific application: creating robust openings in angled single leaf external masonry walls. Its design ensures that structural loads from the brickwork above an opening, such as a window or door, are safely transferred to the supporting masonry. It performs as a standard duty lintel, reliably supporting up to 15kN of load when installed correctly with 150mm end bearings. For example, in a new build or renovation project involving an extension with an angled external wall, this lintel would be used to form a stable opening for a new window, ensuring the integrity of the wall above is maintained against gravity and lateral forces. The different finishes (galvanised for shorter lengths, powder-coated for longer) provide consistent corrosion resistance, crucial for external applications, allowing it to withstand environmental elements over time.
