Product Overview
Catnic CG90/100 cavity wall lintel in a 1050mm length, designed for supporting masonry loads over openings in 90–100mm cavity walls.
Manufactured from galvanised steel with a powder-coated finish, this lintel provides strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life. An integrated insulation core improves thermal performance, reducing cold bridging across the wall cavity.
At 1050mm, this lintel is suited to smaller openings such as windows and utility doorways, ensuring reliable support while maintaining energy efficiency within the wall construction.
