Textured Prestressed Lintel

Our Textured Prestressed Lintels are engineered for maximum structural integrity. Unlike standard cast concrete, these lintels are “prestressed,” meaning they contain high-tensile steel wires that are tensioned before the concrete sets. This process creates a significantly stronger beam capable of supporting heavy masonry loads with minimal deflection. The “textured” or “rilled” surface of these lintels is a key feature for builders. This rough finish provides an excellent mechanical “key” for mortar and plaster, ensuring a strong bond between the lintel and the surrounding brickwork or blockwork. This makes them ideal for use in cavity walls, internal partitions, and over external openings. Whether you are installing a standard internal doorway or a wide window opening, we stock a variety of sizes in both the 100mm x 65mm and the heavier 140mm x 100mm profiles to ensure you have the right level of support for your build. High Load Capacity: Prestressed with high-tensile steel for exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Superior Bonding: Textured surface ensures maximum mortar adhesion and a better key for plastering. Fire Resistant: Provides excellent fire resistance, meeting standard UK building regulations for domestic construction. Versatile Sizing: Available in lengths ranging from 600mm to 2400mm to accommodate various span widths. Durable: Resistant to moisture and rot, providing a maintenance-free structural solution. Available Sizes: We stock a comprehensive range of sizes to suit different wall thicknesses and spans: 65mm High x 100mm Wide: 600mm, 900mm, 1500mm, 1800mm, 2400mm 100mm High x 140mm Wide: 1500mm, 1800mm, 2100mm, 2400mm
