How to choose a support beam
Start with the desk frame, not just the room or desk surface. Identify the compatible frame model and the support beam size it requires, then compare that requirement with the Martex options named 800, 1200, 1495, 1800, 2200 and 2400. Do not choose by appearance alone: the model number and component fit are more useful than a general estimate based on the desk’s overall width.
If you are replacing a beam, compare the product details with the existing component and verify the fit with your frame documentation or supplier. For a new workstation layout, confirm the selected beam works with the other frame components before finalizing the specification. This collection contains support components, not a complete desk or a universal frame kit.
Color, construction and included features
Steel is the listed base material for the family. Grey, red and white are listed as base-color options across the collection, though availability depends on the individual model; check the specific listing for its finish. If the beam will be visible in an open office, consider how its color will sit alongside the frame and surrounding furniture. If it will be less visible, prioritize a confirmed fit and the finish available for the required size.
These beams are listed as non-adjustable and non-linkable. They also do not include a cable tray, so plan cable management separately if your workstation needs it. The collection’s attributes mark the products as circular, but do not specify a particular circularity measure or material-recovery detail. The listed warranty is two years; review the model information for the applicable terms.
Plan the next step
Before selecting a model, make a short checklist: the frame it must fit, the required size, the preferred available color and any cable-management needs. For multi-desk projects, confirm that every workstation uses the same frame configuration before ordering multiple beams. Where sizes or finishes differ between desks, compare the model details individually to avoid treating the collection as a single interchangeable component.
Myntwork offers these products on a monthly lease, which can be considered when planning furniture for a workplace. Choose the component based on verified frame compatibility first, then review the available lease option and the product information for your selected model.
Frequently asked questions about Martex Desk Frame Support Beam
How do I choose between the Martex beam size options?
Match the beam to the compatible desk frame and its specified component size. The collection includes options named 800, 1200, 1495, 1800, 2200 and 2400; check the individual model details rather than choosing by desk width alone.
Are all colors available for every support beam?
No. Grey, red and white are listed across the family, but color availability varies by model. Confirm the finish shown for the specific size you need.
Can I adjust or link these support beams?
The family attributes list the beams as non-adjustable and non-linkable. Check your frame requirements to ensure that this component type suits your setup.
Does a Martex support beam include a cable tray?
The collection is listed as not including a cable tray. If your workstation needs cable management, plan for a separate solution and verify its compatibility with the frame.
Are these complete desks or replacement components?
They are desk-frame support beam components, not complete desks. Confirm compatibility with your existing or planned Martex frame before selecting a model.
