Why Choose This Product

The BPC B460/100 carries full ETA certification and is designed in accordance with Eurocode 5, giving structural engineers and building inspectors the documented assurance they need. The 50mm wide legs increase the nail-fixing area compared with narrower alternatives, improving load transfer and resistance to rotation. The built-in location tab speeds up installation and reduces misalignment on site — a genuine time-saver on large floor decks. Pre-galvanised to G275 specification, it offers robust corrosion resistance for internal structural use without the premium cost of stainless steel.
