Corners

Corner Reinforcement

Corner Reinforcement is designed as exterior or interior plaster reinforcement and ground for a Portland cement or acrylic plaster to make a mechanical bond and solid plaster corner. Corner Reinforcement is manufactured from zinc-coated wire that is electrically welded and formed into a right angle section. Corner Reinforcement is available in 10-foot lengths. We offer several types of Corner Reinforcement:

•    Short Flange Corner Reinforcement
•    Bullnose Corner Reinforcement
•    Square Corner Reinforcement

Cornalath

This is an angle lath with smooth edges formed like regular Diamond Mesh Lath. Cornalath is used on corners where the wall meets wall or ceiling. This reinforcing of interior corners helps prevent cracks. Angles are approximately 105 degrees to offer resistance when pushed into the corner. Available in galvanized steel only.     

Expanded Corner Bead

This is the standard accessory for providing exterior corner protection and providing a reliably straight ground for screeding. The 3-foot expanded mesh wings are easily flexed to adapt to framing irregularities and to match appropriate screed heights. It is furnished in galvanized steel and 99% pure zinc alloy. Weight per 1,000 lineal feet: Galvanized Steel – 185 pounds; Zinc Alloy – 160 pounds.
