Single Leaf Lintel (TSSL)
Single leaf lintels are structural elements that are designed to carry the masonry load above openings, such as doors and windows. The lintels act as a horizontal beam distributing the load from across the opening maintaining the integrity and stability of masonry structures. Stainless Steel lintels should be installed with a minimum end bearing of 150mm either end and bedded into mortar and levelled along its length and across its width.
