Multi-Rib-T-Bars are a cost-effective lintel that provide structural rigidity, high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion. The multi-ribbed profile forms a superior bond with the mortar and is a total load-bearing lintel designed to support 230 mm brickwork over a clear opening and are also 40% lighter than traditional T-Bars. Multi-Rib T-Bar are hot-dip galvanized to AS/NZS 4680 : 2006 to achieve a R3 durability rating and is available in 200 x 200 x 7 mm and 200 x 200 x 9 mm and lengths from 0.9 m to 3.3 m.
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.
