Cavi-T-Bar lintels are the ideal solution for cavity walls, either double brick, or brick veneer with timber trusses. Similar to a T-Bar but with a special top flange incorporated in the upright section, Cavi-T-Bars are 25% lighter than built-up steel sections, and a convenient economical substitute for built up sections such as parallel flange channels and plate. Cavi-T-Bars are hot-dip galvanized to AS/NZS 4680 : 2006 to achieve a R3 durability rating and are available in Cavi-T-Bar Vertical Leg 180 x 8 mm with Platform Leg 250 x 8 mm and Vertical Leg 240 x 9.5 mm with Platform Leg 250 x 8 mm.
Note: Your design engineer should determine the type, size and length of the Galintel for the brickwork openings by consulting the relevant technical data and safe load table below.
