Our High Rib Lath Sheet is a reinforced expanded metal lath designed to provide superior mechanical strength and enhanced bonding performance for wall plaster backing systems. Manufactured from premium galvanized steel sheets, the lath is expanded and pressed into a ribbed structure that delivers exceptional rigidity, stability, and load-bearing capacity.
The deeply formed main ribs and V-shaped stiffeners offer strong support for thick plaster layers, ensuring uniform adhesion and preventing cracking, sagging, or delamination. Its open expanded mesh pattern allows plaster or mortar to effectively interlock with the lath, improving overall wall integrity and providing a reliable base for interior and exterior finishing applications.
Lightweight, easy to cut, and fast to install, this high rib expanded metal lath is widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial wall construction, especially where enhanced support and long-term durability are required.

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.
