Ingal Angle
Ingal Angle Sydney | Galvanised Steel Angle
Ingal angle is the standard shelf angle lintel for brick veneer and full brick construction across residential and commercial projects in Sydney. Hot-dipped galvanised to Australian standards, it distributes the load from masonry above window and door openings to the supporting structure below, and the galvanised coating ensures it performs without corrosion in wall cavities across the life of the building. Sized to suit standard brick courses, it is the go-to for bricklayers and builders who need a reliable, stocked product that installs without complication.
Standard Masonry Lintel Applications
Ingal angle sits as the shelf angle over window and door openings in brick veneer construction, bearing on the structural frame or masonry below and supporting the brickwork above the opening. It is manufactured to the dimensions that suit standard brick course heights, which means no site cutting or shimming to get the coursing right. Hot-dipped galvanising provides long-term corrosion resistance in the wall cavity, where a painted or electro-galvanised product would degrade over time.
For rendered masonry openings, the Ingal Rendabar is the correct product. It is profiled to sit flush with the masonry face and give the renderer a clean surface to work to. For wider openings or heavier masonry loads where a T-section is specified, see our T-Bar Galvanised range.
Masonry lintels carry the load but the brickwork above still needs to be tied back properly, and wall ties and cavity fixings are stocked at BBS for the full cavity wall system. If your build also includes rendered openings, rendered masonry lintel profiles are the correct product for walls that will receive a plaster finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ingal angle used for?
Ingal angle is used as a shelf angle lintel over door and window openings in brick veneer and full brick construction. It supports the masonry above the opening and transfers load to the surrounding structure.
Is Ingal angle hot-dipped galvanised?
Yes. Ingal angle is hot-dipped galvanised for corrosion resistance in wall cavity and exterior masonry applications. The galvanised coating is designed to last the lifetime of the building without rusting in normal conditions.
When should I use Ingal angle versus T-bar for a masonry lintel?
Ingal angle is used for standard shelf angle applications over brick veneer openings. T-bar is used where a T-section profile is specified, typically for wider openings or applications requiring a stronger lintel section. Your engineer or building plans will specify the correct product.
Is Ingal angle suitable for rendered masonry?
For rendered masonry, the Ingal Rendabar is the more appropriate product. It is profiled to sit correctly within a rendered finish without telegraphing through the render face. Standard Ingal angle is better suited to exposed brick applications.
What sizes are available for Ingal angle?
