High Strength Rib Lath, Suitable For Plastering and Stucco Construction

High Strength Rib Lath, Suitable for Plastering & Stucco Construction

Rib lath is made from galvanized (or stainless) steel strips that are slit, expanded, and drawn by specialized machinery, featuring V-shaped ribs for enhanced tensile strength. The longitudinal ribs ensure a consistent plaster depth over large and deep surfaces. It is widely used as a base for plastering and stucco construction on walls and suspended ceilings.

Specification

• Material (Conforming to ASTM A653/A653M): Galvanized steel ( or stainless steel)
• Weights: 2.75–6.70 lbs./yd2, 1.48–3.60 kg/m2
• Mesh size: 11 × 17 mm, 8.34 × 3.11 mm, 11.2 × 5.5 mm, 9.5 × 7.2 mm
• Sheet size: 27" × 97"
• Packaging:
  • 10 pieces per bundle
  • 25 bundles per pallet

Features

• High strength and flexibility. V-shaped ribs enhance overall rigidity, allowing the lath to withstand concrete pouring pressure and distribute stress, preventing structural cracking.
• Excellent permeability. It facilitates even application and firm bonding of plaster or mortar.
• Durability. Made from galvanized or stainless steel, it is corrosion resistant and suitable for humid environments and outdoor projects.
• Versatility. It functions both as form work support and permanent structural reinforcement, with a no-removal design that saves labor time.

Application

Made of expanded metal, rib lath is the ideal material as a background for plaster, render, stucco application in construction of suspended ceilings partition.
