Rytons A1® Fire-rated Metal Triple Air Bricks

General Details

Features and Benefits:

  • A range of custom-made metal triple air bricks.
  • Manufactured from A1 classified galvanised steel.
  • Three air brick styles meet different design, airflow and vent placement requirements in buildings. For cladding, flanged options cover cut edges to maintain the external appearance.
  • Provide high airflows whilst maintaining low resistance.
  • Supplied custom powder coated to Class A2-s1, d0. Choose from the RAL Classic colour chart in matt, semi-gloss or gloss finishes to match cladding or brickwork. Signature architectural finishes are also available.
  • Built-in weather protection. Drainage holes in the air brick provide discreet water outlets, and louvred styles feature angled grilles to promote runoff, reducing the risk of water transfer into the duct.
  • Brick size (rather than duct size) for easy installation using standard mortar joints for a neat appearance in brickwork.
  • Related Ducting Kits:
  • Rytons A1® Fire-rated Ducting Kits 150mm Dia. with Triple Air Bricks.

  • The external walls of high-rise relevant buildings over 18m high (11m high in Scotland).
  • The external walls of relevant buildings 11m+ in height or more than 5 storeys, undergoing unsafe cladding remediation work (Building Safety Act 2022).
  • The external walls of higher-risk buildings at least 18m high or with at least 7 storeys (Building Safety Act 2022).
  • The external surfaces of residential purpose group buildings more than 11m high.
  • The external surfaces of residential purpose group buildings 11m high or less where an external wall is within 1m of the relevant boundary.

  • Bespoke design service available. For further information contact our Technical Sales Office on 01536 511874 or email admin@rytons.com.

Disclaimers:

  • The installation of metal air bricks alone will not satisfy the requirements of high-rise buildings which require all materials forming part of the external wall, or a specified attachment, to be made from non-combustible materials. For compliant ducting kits, see Rytons A1 Fire-rated Range.
  • We do not recommend purchasing a metal air brick separately from the plenum/duct. As the components are hand made and have a size tolerance of +/- 5%, we can only guarantee compatibility between the air brick and the plenum/duct if they are manufactured and supplied as a kit.
