The Ultimate Load Bearing Lintel

Designed for use in very high loading situations, these C Type Single Leaf Lintels are designed to be used over a small opening where high loads are expected, or if larger clear openings are required. These lintels must be fully bearing across each section, which is usually achieved by bearing onto the brickwork reveal. They also need a minimum bearing length of 200mm.

Our Single Leaf Lintel range is designed to carry the external leaf of a cavity wall and will require a separate cavity tray above the lintel. We normally supply lintels in incremental lengths of 150mm, but other lengths and load capacities can be made to order.

Each and every ACS Lintel is manufactured from 90% recycled stainless steel to grade 304. But if you’re building in corrosive environments like coastal areas, we’d be happy to talk to you about manufacturing to grade 316. 

For low load situations, we recommend L Type Single Leaf Lintels
