3mm Low Friction Bearing Strip – 50mm x 2.4m

$16.00 excl GST

Our High-Performance Bearing Strips are expertly crafted to facilitate the seamless movement of precast floor slabs atop their surface. These strips are essential in accommodating the subtle shifts and rotations of floor slabs caused by variations in temperature or natural shrinkage.

Key Features:

  • Optimized Design for Movement: Our strips are engineered to enable a smooth gliding motion of precast floor slabs on their upper layer, while maintaining a secure grip on the structural support below through a uniquely textured underside.
  • Stability and Durability: The carefully designed ribbed bottom surface of our bearing strips ensures consistent performance, staying firmly in place amidst the daily thermal expansion and contraction of the supporting floors.
  • Eco-Friendly and Durable Material: Each 2.4-meter strip is constructed from environmentally-friendly, impact-resistant plastic, showcasing our commitment to sustainability without compromising on strength.
  • Customizable Dimensions: Available in 50mm and 75mm widths, our bearing strips are designed to meet diverse construction needs.
  • Adaptable to Irregular Surfaces: For optimal performance, especially on uneven bearing surfaces, we recommend pairing our bearing strips with a quality grouting mortar.

Description

The 3mm Low Friction Bearing Strip lets precast floor slabs move on their bearing surface instead of binding against it. Precast floor systems like hollow core, T-section, and double T units expand, contract, and rotate slightly as temperatures change and as new concrete shrinks, and a bearing surface with too much grip transfers that movement into cracking or bearing stress instead of absorbing it. This strip’s smooth top surface lets the slab glide, while a ribbed underside grips the supporting wall, corbel, or beam so the strip itself stays put. Made from impact-resistant plastic, it comes in 2.4m lengths, 3mm thick and 50mm wide, and is fixed down with a water-based adhesive. On uneven bearing surfaces, pairing it with a grouting mortar keeps contact consistent across the strip. Precasters and structural engineers use it at the interface between precast floor slabs and their supporting structure on commercial and civil precast jobs.
