Low Profile Pedestal 18-36mm - Fixed Head for Joists or Pavers | StrataRise

Product Overview & Features

StrataRise Low Profile Pedestal 18-36mm - Fixed Head for Joists or Pavers are adjustable from 18mm to 36mm (0.7" to 1.4"). This is a specially designed support for use in areas where low threshold heights are encountered. 

Each support is composed of a threaded head section with 4 removable tabs of 4mm (5/32") in width for paver, slab and tile spacing or, alternatively with a single tab for locating and fixing on joists. The spacer tabs are individually removable to enable the supports to be used in areas where no separation is required, such as under the centres of large slabs, for brick pattern innstallations or at the sides.

Optimised for Professional Installation

An easy to operate threaded adjustment ring makes raising or lowering the head really quick and precise. Height adjustments can be made without removing the joist, paver or tile thus allowing for extremely easy and fast installation. As standard, each Low-Level 1836 pedestal comes complete with one 9mm (0.35") extender ring (this can be fitted by lifting the head out of the base, inserting the ring and replacing the head).

A large 200mm (8") base plate provides stable support on most surfaces. Scribe marks are provided on the underside to assist in trimming for use at sides and corners of installations. An anti-slip, cushioning, rubber base pad is available for use on membranes, etc. This effectively reduces transmitted noise where floors, decks or tiles are mounted on balconies or roof areas, as well as for floors in multi-occupancy buildings.

Noise reduction options

We recommend the use of our optional acoustic cushioning rings for the support head area for tile and paver installations. These help to bed tile corners securely, prevent any rattling, and reduce transmitted noise through the support system.

StrataRise pedestals are robust and can withstand high loads of at least 800kg (1760 lbs) at maximum height extension (i.e. with minimal thread engagement). Normal pedestal spacing for deck installations is at 500mm to 600mm (20" to 24") centers along each joist for most projects.

Applications & Suitable Surfaces

Suitable for laying over membranes and insulating panels

Thanks to the large support area of the pedestal bases the system can be installed on top of waterproofing membranes, rigid insulating panels and onto any solid, compact laying surface.

The circular shape of the base adapts well to the course of the laying surface, even when this is not perfectly regular. The base incorporates holes for the outflow of water and two head-cut lines to be used when laying the supports at perimeter edges or corners.

Available in two versions, this versatile pedestal support can be used with any type of self-supporting tile or paver.

Professional Grade Design

Designed for the professional, with industry leading specifications, our pedestals are the fastest and easiest to work with, allowing precise adjustment without any need to lift off the paver or tile to make adjustments. Each 1836LP Pedestal is supplied complete with one 3/8" (9mm) height extender ring as standard.
