For Paving
Self-levelling headpiece incorporates 4 x positioning lugs (fins) laid out in a crucifix formation set towards the edges, the four positioning lugs (fins) creates a drainage gap of 4mm between the tiles/pavers. This is to allow “The Key” to be used to adjust the height of the pedestal without having to lift the tile/paver.
The headpiece also comprises 4 x separate parts created to allow up to a 5% or 2.86° slope correction in all directions, the mechanism at the bottom of the headpiece allows smooth movement and positioning of the paving slab, the lugs (fins) separate paving slabs and tiles on the headpiece to allow sufficient drainage between slabs, this creates a uniform paving line so the slabs are laid completely straight. A rubber anti-shock pad slots onto the headpiece over a series of ridges to give better grip to the slab and help insulate against vibration and noise travelling through the pedestal to the deck beneath
For Decking
The lugs (fins) are set out towards the edges of the headpiece giving a 55mm gap between them to house a timber joist decking boards are then fixed to the timber joist frame no need to cut furrings – simply adjust your pedestal height, the auto-correcting head makes installing decking systems much faster than traditional methods
Fixed Height & Self-levelling
The Mega Balance pedestal offers two convenient options in the one pedestal. Each pedestal is self-levelling as the standard configuration. To make it a fixed head setting, simply use “The Grey Nut.”
The Grey Nut
To enable this, insert The Grey Nut into the center of the headpiece between the marked sections and apply firm pressure. The arrows on The Grey Nut should align with the existing black molding in the central section of the headpiece. Once in position, the headpiece becomes securely locked and fixed.
By incorporating both layout options within the same pedestal, installers gain enhanced flexibility in their projects, streamlining the installation process.
The Black Nut
The Black Nut is occasionally used when working with the Mega Balance Clip pedestal. By placing the Nut into the central part of the headpiece, it allows you adjust the height by twisting the stem of the pedestal.
This is particularly handy when using lower height pedestals and for when the pedestal is in situ with the aluminium rail/joist already connected.
Mega Balance are future-proofed and very user friendly, as minor levelling adjustments (which may be required over time) can be made in-situ without having to lift the slabs.
Often suspended paving areas can have slabs starting to rock or dip, as the structure moves through expansion or traffic and other forces lead to the upper surface becoming unlevel. “The Key” is the solution.
Instead of having the physically lift the affected slabs, twist the thread on the pedestal, replace the slabs and checking for the correct height; users have the major advantage of using The Key. By placing the key into the centre of the headpiece users can lift the height of the pedestal marginally to recreate the flat, correct level for the slabs.
This is a much faster process to achieve the correct paving level and crucially has major health & safety advantages. Instead of having to lift heavy paving slabs repeatedly, operatives can ensure perfect upper level of paving without risk to both their own welfare and from dropping a slab onto the surface / subdeck.
Mega Balance offer flexibility, speed and safety to the FM teams and owner alike.
