8 x 130 x 8.16 kg Flatbar S275
Rolled as a flat bar measuring 8 × 130 mm, the 8 x 130 x 8.16 kg Flatbar S275 covers everything from a simple packer to a structural flitch plate. Used as a splice or gusset, thickness and hole layout are the critical dimensions; the plate must be at least as strong as the members it joins.

At 8.16 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 122.5 linear metres. At this weight the section is a genuine two-person lift over short distances, so it suits refurbishment work, tight access and sites without craneage. Held in S275 to BS EN 10025-2 and cut to length before it leaves the yard. Mill certificates accompany every load, and any fabrication is executed under our BS EN 1090 EXC 3 factory production control.
Typically specified for edging and trim to steelwork, timber flitch beams, splice and gusset plates, base and cap plates and packers and shims.
For flitch plates, drill on site only as a last resort — accurate shop drilling keeps the bolt group true through both timbers.
