Frequently asked questions about the Light lintels category
What are Light lintels and where are they used?
Light lintels are autoclaved aerated concrete (Fibo) lintels designed to span openings like windows and doors in masonry walls. They are suitable for aerated concrete and brick walls and come in sizes such as KERGSILLUS FIBO 250x1790 and 100x1490 to simplify installation and carry wall loads.
How to choose a Light lintel for a door opening?
Measure the clear width of the opening and add bearing length on each side, typically 100–150 mm. Pick the nearest product length such as KERGSILLUS FIBO 300x2390 for larger openings, ensuring the lintel’s total length provides required bearing support.
What material are KERGSILLUS FIBO light lintels made of?
KERGSILLUS FIBO lintels are made from autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), providing low weight and thermal insulation. The porous surface is easy to cut and adjust on-site.
Are Light lintels suitable for aerated concrete walls?
Yes, KERGSILLUS FIBO light lintels are intended for use in aerated concrete walls; their density and support characteristics match AAC construction when installed correctly. Confirm chosen length and bearing meet design specifications.
What standard sizes are available in the Light lintels category?
The range includes sizes shown in product names such as KERGSILLUS FIBO 100x1490, 150x1490, 200x1190, 250x1790, 300x2390 and 300x2990. These codes indicate lintel height and length.
What is the difference between KERGSILLUS and WEBER FIBO models?
KERGSILLUS FIBO and WEBER FIBO are different brands of AAC lintels; differences are typically in density, surface treatment and available dimensions. Choose WEBER FIBO 100x1490 or compare models by checking technical specs like density and load capacity.
Can Light lintels be cut to length on site?
Yes, AAC lintels can be cut on site using a handsaw or angle grinder with a diamond blade for easy length adjustments. After cutting, finish bearing surfaces with mortar and check that the lintel sits evenly.
What is the minimum bearing length required for a KERGSILLUS FIBO lintel?
The typical bearing length for KERGSILLUS FIBO light lintels is usually 100–150 mm on each side. Verify the exact requirement for the chosen model per your project specifications.
Do Light lintels require reinforcement during installation?
AAC light lintels are typically installed without additional reinforcement unless the structural load or design specifies otherwise. For large spans or special conditions follow the project engineer’s and manufacturer’s recommendations.
How to check a lintel's load capacity before buying?
Match the product size and code (e.g. KERGSILLUS FIBO 250x1790) against your design loads and consult the manufacturer’s technical data for allowable loads. If unsure, provide opening dimensions and wall type for a precise recommendation.
