About Our 50mm x 3m Non-Combustible Metal Battens

For large cladding areas that demand a sturdier support system, our 50mm tall and 3m long, non-combustible metal battens are designed to handle the greater loads and spans found in commercial and industrial environments. Supplied in practical 3m lengths, these unpunched battens provide exceptional rigidity across wider surfaces, helping you achieve a clean, even horizontal cladding installation with confidence.

Choose the 50mm wide batten for general installation, or the 100mm width for points where two boards meet, giving additional strength at board‑to‑board joins.

Manufactured from 1.5mm thick galvanised steel, the battens offer a naturally non‑combustible alternative to composite, recycled plastic, or timber battens and are suitable for a wide range of cladding systems.

As with all steel battens, the edges are very sharp, so wearing suitable protective gloves, such as our Cut Level 5 protective gloves, is essential to prevent cuts or lacerations during handling.

Benefits of Galvanised Steel Cladding Battens

  • Provides a strong, stable base for larger façade installations
  • Designed for commercial and industrial cladding applications
  • Choice of 50mm width (general use) or 100mm (board‑joint support)
  • Quick to install using 45mm masonry TEK screws
  • Durable, non‑combustible galvanised steel for long‑lasting support

Specifications

  • Material: Galvanised steel
  • Thickness: 1.5mm
  • Length: 3m
  • Width: 50mm (general use) or 100mm (joining boards)
  • Height: 50mm (for commercial/industrial)

Fixing Guidance

For secure installation, these 50mm tall galvanised steel non-combustible metal batten should be fixed at 600mm centres using 45mm masonry TEK screws. Their unpunched design allows you to position fixings precisely to suit your project layout.

Because the steel edges are extremely sharp, suitable protective gloves must be worn at all times to prevent cuts or lacerations.

Looking for an alternative?

For domestic cladding projects, see our 3m non-combustible metal battens, 38mm.

For recycled plastic options, see our 50mm x 50mm recycled plastic cladding batten.

Please note: that these battens must be installed horizontally. Their profile height prevents proper drainage in vertical setups, and they should only be used for horizontal cladding installations.

Customer Collection Notice

Please ensure you have pre-booked your collection slot before travelling to site.

When arriving to collect your order, please report to a member of our Warehouse Team who will register your arrival and locate your goods. Once ready, your items will be picked and brought to your vehicle loading area.

During busy periods, there may be a short wait while our yard team assist other customers or complete other loading tasks. We always do our best to work within your booked collection time.

We respectfully draw your attention to the following important points:

  • Loading is ultimately the customer’s responsibility. While our team can assist with mechanical loading using forklifts, we cannot handball items into enclosed vehicles. Customers must ensure their vehicle is suitable and that goods are safely loaded and adequately secured before leaving the premises.
  • Sharp sheeting, metal goods, and long/heavy items may pose additional handling risks. Please come prepared with high-quality protective gloves, and any appropriate protection materials to avoid damage to your vehicle or restraints (e.g. ropes or straps). The edges of roofing sheets and metal products can be extremely sharp, and care should be taken when handling.
  • We strongly recommend that customers bring their own straps, ropes, or other securing materials, as we are unable to provide these at the point of collection.
  • If you are unsure of your vehicle’s load capacity, we can advise the approximate weight of your order in advance. It is your responsibility to ensure your vehicle is suitable for transporting the goods safely and legally.
  • Cladco will not be held liable for any damage to your vehicle or goods once they have been loaded and leave our premises. Loading assistance is provided entirely at the customer’s own risk.

Click & Collect – Pre-Booking Required

You are welcome to collect your order from either our Okehampton (Devon) or Andover (Hampshire) site. All collections must be pre-booked in advance so your items can be picked, packed and ready for you.

Please do not travel to site without a confirmed collection time, as we cannot guarantee your order will be available.

Once your items are ready, you will receive an email with a link to book your collection slot. Please note, same-day collections are not available and bookings must be made at least two hours in advance.

When you arrive, please bring your order confirmation and follow the signage to the collection area where a member of our team will assist you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. All edges on our metal battens are very sharp and can cause cuts to your hands if unprotected. Always wear appropriate protective gloves (e.g., Cut Level 5) to prevent injuries.

Manufactured from 1.5mm galvanised steel, they are non‑combustible and engineered for long‑term stability, and are a dependable alternative to timber, composite or recycled plastic supports.

The 50mm height offers extra rigidity and support across larger façades, making it better suited to commercial and industrial installations and large‑format cladding. The larger space between the wall and the batten helps to promote increased airflow in large projects.

Choose the 50mm wide batten for general use. Select the 100mm wide battens where two cladding boards meet/butt together to provide additional support at the joint. 50mm battens are too narrow to adequately support two boards.

Fix at 600mm centres using 45mm masonry TEK screws. The battens are unpunched, giving you flexibility to position fixings where needed. For complete guidance, please see our cladding installation guides.

We used these on a refurb of a small industrial unit. Nothing fancy to say really. They turned up on time, the lengths were straight and no warped bits (obviously, theyre steel). Our lads said they were simple enough to work with. Delivery bloke was friendly too, which always helps.
Would happily use again

Good quality battens, used for a commercial cladding reno. Both the 50mm and 100mm widths were spot on. Install went smoothly and the battens kept everything straight over a long run. Arrived well packaged. Would happily use on future contracts.
