Designed for plaster backing, roofing, and structural support where no key is present
Corrosion-resistant galvanised finish for long-lasting durability on site
Flexible enough to form curves and domes; easy to cut with tin snips or aviation cutters

Details
The Expamet 264 BB galvanized steel lathing is a robust solution for contractors and builders needing reliable metalwork to support plaster or roofing finishes. Supplied in boxes of 10 sheets, each measuring 2500mm x 700mm, this 0.6mm thick lathing is engineered to provide excellent keying for plaster in areas where backing is absent, preventing cracking and enhancing finish durability. Please note that installation requires specific overlapping and fixing instructions to ensure optimal performance.
Application
This lathing is commonly used as a carrier for plaster on walls and ceilings where no natural key or backing exists. It is also ideal for reinforcing areas over chases or columns to prevent cracking. Its flexibility allows it to be shaped into curves or domes, making it suitable for complex architectural features. Builders and site managers appreciate its versatility and durability on demanding projects.

Installation Notes: Maintain a 5-6mm gap between the lath and substrate. Overlap sheets by 50mm on the short edge and 25mm on the long edge.

Unsupported overlaps must be wire-tied at 150mm centres.
