Product catalog summary
Introduction
LASTO®FOL is a foil sliding bearing designed for separating load-bearing elements in construction, allowing movement without twisting. It is cost-efficient and easy to install, consisting of two polyethylene sheets with low friction, enhanced by silicone grease.

Specifications
There are two types of LASTO®FOL bearings: Type FOL G, a simple double foil unit for even surfaces, and Type FOL GE, which includes elastomeric cladding for leveling uneven surfaces. The bearings can absorb large horizontal movements with extremely low friction values and high impact resistance. The sliding friction coefficient is μ = 0.03 at a pressure load of 6N/mm², with a maximum loading capacity of up to 10N/mm² depending on the cladding.

Scope of Application
LASTO®FOL sliding foils are used in structural and civil engineering, particularly for concrete slabs on walls or steel girders, or for separating foundations. They allow horizontal displacements with minimal friction.

Technical Details
The bearings are available in two design models: Type FOL G without cladding and Type FOL GE with elastomeric cladding. The elastomeric cladding acts as a cushion, leveling uneven surfaces and protecting the sliding foils. Custom specifications include larger widths and varying cladding thicknesses.

Installation Procedure
1. Prepare a level grout layer on the wall coping.
2. Install the bearings on the hardened grout layer, securing them with tape if necessary.
3. Cut out channels for services and mask them tightly.
4. Remove cement residue and form an expansion gap during plastering.

Tender and References
LASTO®FOL bearings are supplied by mageba sa, with references including apartment blocks and commercial buildings. The bearings are part of a broader range of products including vibration insulation and expansion joints.

Quality Assurance
mageba ensures high quality and durability, with product performance tested and verified by independent institutes. The friction coefficient is confirmed by MPA Stuttgart, and lubrication is machine-applied for consistent low friction.

LASTO ® FOL G/GE-1

A foil sliding bearing for separating load-bearing elements, allowing movement without twisting Edge bonding sliding bearings are cost-efficient and easy-toinstall bearings for buildings. The bearing consists of two polyethylene sheets placed loosely one on the other. These sheets have particularly low friction and are additionally treated with silicone grease , g y on the inside, thus achieving incredibly low friction. If the bearing surfaces are very even, a simple double foil unit (Type FOL G) is sufficient. If levelling is required, an elastomer-clad double foil unit (Type FOL GE) must be used. Sliding bearing grease Pair of polyethylene sheets Elastomeric cladding Construction of LASTO®FOL GE Planar transmission of forces Horizontal sliding displacements LASTO®FOL sliding foils can be used wherever loadbearing elements must be separated, allowing for movement without twisting. Horizontal displacements between the individual construction elements are permitted with the lowest possible friction The most common friction. application is with concrete slabs which are to be placed on walls or steel girders, or which must be separated from the foundations along their whole length. These bearings are suitable for use in structural and civil engineering and in steel construction.
