What Is a Class A Fire Rated Pedestal Rail System?

• Product info & specification

Key Advantages

• Full Metal Substructure, made from galvanised steel
• Class A non-combustible material (EN 13501-1:2018)
• Profiled Aluminium Joist clicks securely onto MetalPad
• Secure connection without mechanical fixings
• Suitable decking and paving solutions
• Very high weight tolerance
• Zero corrosion
• Creates lateral stability across the deck by reducing movement
• Adjustable height with maximum flexibility
• Fully compliant with draft BS 8579

Specially profiled aluminium rails 20mm, 25mm or 50mm click onto headpiece without need for screws, drills or mechanical fixings for a secure connection.

Powder-coated headpiece prevents any reaction between steel and aluminium.

Paving / Tiling Applications

• Integrated Class A Rail system for installing porcelain tiles and ceramic planks
• Specially profiled bearer rails/joists click onto headpiece of Metalpad
• Designed to give greater support to slabs and tiles and additional lateral strength across the deck
• Faster installation of suspended paving and tiling projects
• Secure connection into spring-loaded headpiece fittings; no screws, no drilling on site
• Large baseplates distribute weight efficiently reducing point loading
• Greater spans between pedestals possible
• Joist helps “tie together” pedestals, giving more lateral strength across the decking surface
• Large height range using three different sized joists
• Powder-coated headpiece prevents a reaction between steel and aluminium joist
• Additional headpiece clicks onto joist to hold slab/tile in place
• Clip head has four lugs for full support and uniform spacing of tile
• Clip head slides along Rail for accurate measurement and total support
• Fast, safe, secure construction of substructure

Decking Applications

• Fully integrated substructure system for installing Class A decking
• Specially profiled bearer rails/joists click onto headpiece of Metalpad
• Secure connection into spring-loaded headpiece fittings; no screws, no drilling on site
• Large height range using three different sized joists
• Greater spans between pedestals possible
• Large baseplates distribute weight efficiently reducing point loading
• Powder-coated headpiece prevents a reaction between steel and aluminium joist
• Joist helps “tie together” pedestals, giving more lateral strength across the decking surface
• Class A decking surface fixed to the joist
• Fast, safe, secure construction of substructure
