LOW FRICTION BEARING STRIP

Allows precast floor slabs to slide on the top of the strip.

The Low Friction Bearing Strip is designed to allow movement between load-bearing elements and the support structure. The smooth upper face of the strip allows the precast floor slab to move or rotate slightly with temperature or shrinkage movements, while the ribbed bottom face grips the bearing surface, preventing the strip from working its way out under cyclic movements.

Features and Benefits

  • Design allows precast floor slabs to slide on the top surface of the strip, while the underside firmly grips the wall or beam.
  • Ribbed underside ensures that the Low Friction Bearing Strip does not work out as the supporting floor goes through daily temperature cycles.
  • Made in 2.4m lengths of 100% recyclable impact resistant plastic.
  • Available in widths of 50mm and 75mm
  • Should be used with a grouting mortar when there are major irregularities in the bearing surface.

Applications

PRECAST

  • Designed to be placed between precast concrete floor slabs and a supporting wall, corbel or beam.
  • To be used between any Hollow Core, T Section, Double T precast concrete floor and the concrete support the floor rests on.
