Metal Lath, Plaster Reinforcement & Corner/Casing Beads

Diamond Mesh Lath

  • Manufactured by slitting and stretching galvanized steel to form small opening to allow the keying of plaster so it will bond to the lath.
  • Each sheet has square ends and smooth parallel edges for fast, easy handling and installation.
  • Diamond Mesh Lath can be bent easily to create curved surfaces.

Self Furring Diamond Mesh Lath

  • Codes require metal lath used over solid surfaces to be furred approximately ¼ inch away from the wall to allow for the proper stucco keying behind the lath.
  • Self-furred diamond mesh lath has a surface studded in dimples or embossed “V” groove that provide the required ¼ inch of furring.
  • Fastener placement should be arranged so as not to negate the furring mechanism.
