Product Charts
- Individual code of the item.
- Stock product: this label means that the item is more readily available.
- Products that are marked as stock products are directly available at Meka’s warehouse in Finland.
- Product weight in kilograms
- Product dimensions in millimetres. The matching ruler to the letter is printed on the product’s dimension drawing.
- Product sales package. For long products, we state the number of pieces and the total length in metres. For mounting parts, we
state the number of pieces in the package. - Short code of product surface treatment or material.
- Description of the surface treatment or material.
- Atmospheric-corrosivity categories that apply to the product.
Load Diagrams
- Testing method compliant with IEC 61537 type 3.
- Product deflection in millimetres.
- Product load in kilograms per metre.
- Span used in testing, in metres.
- With a load of 70 kilograms per metre and a span is 2.5 metres, the product will deflect by 6 millimetres. The safe workload (SWL) has been tested with a calibrated testing device. This testing method is certified according to the standard IEC 61537. The joint is at a 1/5 distance of the
support and the deflection was measured at the midway point between the supports. SWL is a load that creates a deflection of 1/100 in the span, or if a 1/100 deflection is not achieved, it is the force that creates a permanent deformation divided with the safety factor, which is 1.7.
