Application

  • Decking sub-structure for gardens, balconies and large commercial projects.
  • Cladding battening for domestic and commercial projects.

Description

A2 fire-rated aluminium Dura Bearers offer a simple and long-life decking substructure and cladding battening system. Unlike timber subframes, which can twist, rot or warp over time, Dura Bearers are made from 6063 grade aluminium (T6) and have a greater strength-to-size ratio than traditional materials.


Available in three sizes: 25mm, 50mm and 75mm, Dura Bearers can be installed directly onto hard surfaces, such as concrete or paving, as well as onto soft surfaces such as soil, sand or grass, (provided the area has been compacted and bricks, pavers or concrete slabs are placed beneath the bearers at suitable intervals).


Anthracite powder-coated finish as standard, A1-rated mill finish is available to special order; consult manufacturer for details.


  • A2 Fire Rated - Tested in accordance with the requirements of EN 13501-1.
  • High Strength - 6063 Grade Aluminium (T6).
  • Anti-Glare - Powder-coated finish in Anthracite.
  • 10 Year Warranty - With a 60 year expected service life.
  • Slope Correction - When you pair Dura Bearers with Pedestals, our unique design allows seamless adaptation to gradients of up to 10° degrees (1:6 fall).
  • The Perfect Combination - Use any Dura Bearer with any Dura Pedestal to create 48 different combinations.
