FAQs:
What materials are used to manufacture Rib Lath Mesh?
Rib Lath Mesh is manufactured from galvanized steel sheet or stainless steel sheet, which are punched and profiled to create the V-rib structure for enhanced strength and durability.
What are the key benefits of using Rib Lath Mesh for plastering?
The key benefits include high tensile strength, uniform plastering depth, excellent plaster bonding, flexibility for shaping, lightweight construction, and time-saving installation due to its easy-to-handle design.
Can Rib Lath Mesh be used for applications other than wall plastering?
Yes, besides wall plastering and suspended ceilings, Rib Lath Mesh, particularly the Hy Rib variant, is widely used as permanent formwork for concrete and in construction joints, serving as a carrier for plaster, stucco, and fireproofing materials.
What sizes and specifications are available for Rib Lath Mesh?
Rib Lath Mesh is available in various widths (200mm to 700mm or custom), lengths (2000mm, 3000mm or custom), thicknesses (0.25mm to 0.50mm), and rib distances (10mm, 15mm or custom), with options for hot-dip galvanized surface treatment.
