Karmafloor Levelling Acoustic Batten is suitable for use in new build and refurbishment concrete floors. The levelling batten is used for uneven surfaces with its revolutionary design – (up to a maximum of 30mm depth). It can be used as an alternative to a cradle and batten system.

Product description

Dressed softwood timber batten supported at regular intervals by an
adjustable foot with a foam layer adhered to its underside.

Manufactured from:
  • Osmose treated timber, currently the most environmentally friendly
    preservation available
  • Exclusive receiver and foot assembly
  • Composite of high density cross linked closed cell foams for
    enhanced longevity, performance and durability whilst minimising
    both deflection under load and water absorption.

Product features

The resilient feet have stepless adjustment by way of a threaded metal
insert within the batten body. This accommodates a robust threaded foot
assembly that is quickly and accurately adjusted by a drill/screwdriver.
