Rib Lath without Paper
Share to：
Rib Lath Without Paper is a high‑strength expanded metal lath featuring cold‑formed ribs for added rigidity and span, supplied without any attached building paper or backing. Used as a structural reinforcement for plaster and stucco on walls, ceilings, and soffits, it delivers excellent mechanical key and dimensional stability over framing, masonry, or concrete. The open, paper‑free design allows specifiers to choose separate weather‑resistive barriers or vapor control layers as needed, making it a flexible choice for multi‑coat exterior systems, fire‑resistive assemblies, and demanding interior applications.

Technical Parameters
- Material: Hot‑dipped galvanized steel expanded metal
- Structure: Cold‑formed ribs pressed into expanded lath (no paper backing)
- Mesh Pattern: Diamond mesh for strong mechanical key
- Finish: Zinc coating for corrosion protection in exterior use
- Packaging: Flat bundles, strapped and palletized for site handling
Product Application
Rib lath without paper is used where high stiffness and load‑carrying capacity are needed, but a paper backing is not required. It serves as a reinforcement and plaster base on ceilings, soffits, beams, columns, and curved surfaces, and as a formwork lath for lightweight concrete or render. Contractors choose bare rib lath for open substrates, fire‑resistant assemblies, and areas where maximum keying and ventilation through the lath are desired.
Product Advantages
- Integral ribs provide extra rigidity and span capacity
- No paper layer allows full keying of plaster, stucco, or render
- Suitable for ceilings and soffits with fewer supports
- Easy to cut, shape, and form around curves and angles
- Galvanized surface extends service life in demanding environments
- Works with traditional plaster, stucco, and lightweight concrete
- Available in multiple rib heights, gauges, and sheet sizes
