Description
A galvanised support lug for steadying railing panels and long runs of fencing. It is a 30 x 6mm galvanised steel flat bar, 300mm long, with a 50mm upstand at one end carrying a 25 x 12mm slot, and a split fishtail at the other end. Build the fishtail end into a brick wall, pier or concrete footing, then bolt the upstand to a railing bar or post through the slot. A few lugs along a long run of ready-made panels stop the panels rocking and keep the line straight. The price shown is for one lug, with a minimum order of 5. Each one weighs about 0.5 kg.
Why choose this support lug
Galvanised for outdoor life. The zinc coating protects the lug where it sits in damp mortar and concrete, and where it meets the weather at the face of the wall.
Fishtail for a firm grip. The split, splayed end locks into the mortar or concrete so the lug cannot pull out.
Slot for easy lining up. The 25 x 12mm slot in the upstand gives room to adjust before you tighten an M10 bolt, so panels line up even if the lug is not set perfectly.
Heavy 30 x 6mm bar. A solid section that holds tall railing panels steady along a wall top or between piers.
Where it is used
Railing panels on dwarf walls, ready-made fence and railing panels on long runs, gates and panels fixed to brick piers, balustrade and handrail posts fixed to walls, and general fixing of steelwork to masonry.

Fitting
Set the railing panel in place and mark where each lug falls against a bar or post. Bed the lug in the mortar joint as you build, or in a slot or hole cut into the wall or pier and filled with mortar or resin, with the fishtail end inside and the upstand standing proud beside the bar. Once set, bolt the upstand to the bar through the slot with an M10 bolt, adjusting the panel to line before you tighten.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one lug?
Yes, it is for one lug, with a minimum order of 5. For a larger job, call us for a quantity price.
How many do I need?
As a guide, one lug at each end of a panel run and one at every panel joint on a long run, more on tall or exposed panels.
Can I weld to it?
Yes, you can weld the upstand to the steelwork instead of bolting it. Grind off the zinc at the weld, work with good ventilation, and touch up with zinc-rich paint afterwards.
