Flexible Diamond Metal Lath For Curved Surface Plastering
Engineered for architectural fluidity, this flexible diamond metal lath transforms intricate curves and complex geometries into stable plaster/veneer substrates with effortless contortion and zero spring-back. Its unique malleable steel alloy molds seamlessly to domes, archways, and ornate columns, eliminating the need for tedious section seams while locking into bases from curved masonry to undulating steel frames. The deep diamond profile amplifies mechanical bonding strength by 35% versus rigid laths, preventing substrate slippage even on steeply vaulted surfaces across theatres, luxury hospitality, and historical renovations.
Restoration masonry contractors and scenic fabricators deploy this ASTM C1032-curvature certified lath for sculptural interiors, barrel ceilings, and landscape structures—exceeding ICC-ES seismic movement standards for North American casinos, museums, and amphitheatres. Distributors prioritize high-margin niche applications using compact, self-stacking pallets (±250 rolls), while installers slash labor via cold-mold adaptability and integrated fastener flanges. Leverage bulk-order CAD/CAM cutting for bespoke radius templates or 360° coil compatibility, supported by our structural engineering team for code verification and LEED-accredited acoustic performance on signature curved builds.
