3.4lbs Heavy-gauge Self-furring Metal Lath for Structural Stability
Overview
WSFIVIN’s Heavy-gauge Self-furring Metal Lath (3.4lbs/sq.yd)
delivers industrial-grade reinforcement for ceilings and walls in
high-traffic environments, featuring 16GA steel thickness to
withstand seismic activity and heavy mechanical loads. With
pre-formed 5/16" furring dimples and galvanized G60 durability, it
addresses critical stability demands in multi-story buildings and
earthquake-prone regions.
Key Features
1.Structural Reinforcement
-3.4lbs/sq.yd density resists 350% higher impact forces than
standard lath systems.
Diamond-patterned mesh distributes load evenly across 12" joist
spans.
2.Corrosion Resistance
-Zinc-aluminum alloy coating exceeds ASTM A641 requirements, ideal
for coastal chemical plants.
-Interlocking edges prevent moisture penetration at sheet joints.
3.Self-Furring Efficiency
-Pre-spaced dimples eliminate manual furring strips, reducing labor
costs by 30%.
-Serrated edges enhance plaster adhesion for crack-free finishes.
Applications
-High-Rise Buildings: Seismic reinforcement in hotel atriums and
conference halls
-Parking Garages: Overhead protection against vehicle vibrations
-Warehouse Facilities: Impact-resistant wall systems near loading
docks
-Disaster Relief: Quick-deploy structural stabilization for
emergency shelters
Service Benefits
-MOQ: 250 sheets | Roll-forming available for vaulted ceilings
-Free seismic load calculator with orders over 500 sheets
