Angle Bead

T

LFixing

Apply plaster dabs to the wall

at maximum 600mm intervals

(to both sides of the arris for

angle bead). Press the wings of

the bead into the dabs of plaster.

Alternatively fix with corrosion

resistant nails or suitable adhesive.

Ensure the bead is plumbed and squared. The line of the

nose of the bead will determine the thickness of plaster.

Cutting and Joining

Cut the nose of the bead with a fine tooth saw or hacksaw

and the wings with tin snips.

Plastering

Select suitable bead for thin

coat, internal plaster or

external render.

Take care not to damage the

bead. Wipe off any excess

plaster while it is still fresh.

Do not scrape or chip with a trowel to avoid damage to the bead.

The finishing coat should be just proud of the angle bead, allow

to wash over the nose of the bead when the plaster is being

trowelled. Avoid excessive polishing of the plaster arris.

Remove protective tape on movement beads after plastering.

Plaster and RenderApplication

Used where the underlying

substrate changes, or where

minor movement in the

structure beneath the render

is expected.

Movement beads can also be

used where changes in render

colour are specified.

Movement beads should

NOT be used over structural

movement joints.

Readily bends to create curves

and arch forms for decorative

plaster requirements in thin

coat and dry lining

applications.

Metal lath can be used as a carrier for plaster or render finishes

on backgrounds where it is not possible to achieve a direct bond

i.e painted surfaces, glazed brick, timber frame, insulation

materials and friable masonry.

The metal lath is mechanically fixed to the structural background

and a key is formed where the plaster / render penetrates and

envelops the metal strands of the lath.

Two types of metal lathing are available from Expamet : Riblath

and Expanded Metal Lath both in galvanised and stainless steel.

Expamet Professional PVCu beads may be fixed onto the face of

the lath using mechanical fixings, dabs or wire ties. Ensure that

all metal components used in an installation are of the same

material type or compatible materials.
