IG L10 Steel Lintel

Galvanised Steel Single Leaf Lintel for Outer Cavity Walls

The IG L10 Lintel is a single leaf lintel designed to support the outer leaf of a cavity wall above a door or window opening. IG manufactures it from galvanised mild steel with an L-shaped profile that sits within the outer leaf without reaching across the cavity. It comes in six stocked lengths and can be supplied without a top bend.

Specifications

Key Design Features

Height and steel thickness increase with length, which is how the longer lintels carry higher loads. IG states that the lintel may be propped during construction to speed up the build.

Benefits

• Avoids a full cavity lintel where only the outer leaf needs support.
• Galvanised finish protects the steel against corrosion.
• Light section is easy to lift and position by hand.
• No top bend option suits details where a standard bend would obstruct the build.

Applications

Use this single leaf lintel above door and window openings in external brick or block walls in housing, extensions and commercial buildings. Check the span and total load against the figures above before specifying. Where both leaves need support, a cavity lintel such as the IG L1/S100 is the right choice.
