Moisture Barrier Integrated Hi Rib Stucco Lath Panel

This hybrid lath integrates a cross-laminated polypropylene moisture barrier within its deep trapezoidal ribs, establishing a continuous drainage plane that redirects 98% of wind-driven rainwater away from structural sheathing. Its elevated rib profile provides superior plaster key depth while engineered weep slots channel moisture efficiently—surpassing ASTM E2273 performance thresholds for coastal high-rises and hurricane-prone condominiums. Factory-bonded to corrosion-resistant G90 steel, the unitary assembly eliminates traditional building paper redundancies, preventing moisture entrapment behind stucco in freeze-thaw cycling common across Canada and the Northern U.S.

Exterior envelope contractors tackling hospitals, museums, and coastal resorts deploy this system to accelerate moisture management by 50%, as its pre-notched ribs interlock with fluid-applied air barriers without compromising R-15 continuous insulation cavities. The laser-guided weep baffles sync with architectural flashings to mitigate efflorescence in salt-air environments, while proprietary vapor-diffusion testing confirms 0.01 perm ratings behind polymer-modified finishes. Access BIM-embedded detailing guides for poured concrete or CMU substrates, and leverage exclusive 30-year delamination warranties validated through 500 accelerated condensation cycles per ASTM G154.

FAQ

1. What is High Rib Lath used for?

High Rib Lath is designed for heavy-duty stucco, concrete, and plaster applications. It’s ideal for walls, ceilings, and formwork where superior reinforcement and mechanical keying are required.

2. Does your High Rib Lath meet U.S. and Canadian building codes?

Yes. Our product complies with ASTM C847 and is ICC-ES certified, ensuring it meets the structural and safety requirements of North American construction standards.

3. What makes High Rib Lath different from regular metal lath?

It features deep ribs and expanded metal openings for added stiffness and superior bonding. The ribbed profile provides strong support for thick plaster or concrete applications, even over wide spans.

4. What is the minimum order and lead time?

The MOQ is 2 pallets (total of 1,000 sheets, 500 sheets per pallet). Lead time is typically 15–20 working days, depending on order size and customization.

5. How is the product packaged for export?

We use sturdy palletized packaging for safe container shipping. Each pallet is tightly strapped and can be customized with waterproof wrap or branding labels as needed.
