High-Strength G60 Self-Furring Metal Lath for Ceiling Reinforcement
Overview
WSFIVIN’s G60 Self-Furring Metal Lath delivers unmatched structural reinforcement for suspended and plaster ceilings, featuring 15,000 PSI tensile strength to combat sagging in high-humidity environments like theaters and swimming pool enclosures. Certified to ASTM A653 standards, this lath integrates durability with precision spacing for flawless plaster adhesion.
Key Features
1.G60 Galvanized Superiority
-60g/m² zinc coating withstands 30+ years of corrosion in coastal or chemically active spaces (e.g., industrial kitchens).
-Diamond-punched self-furring dimples maintain 5/16" consistent standoff, eliminating air gaps behind plaster.
2.Heavy-Duty Reinforcement
-ASTM A653 Grade 33 steel handles 250% greater point loads than standard non-reinforced ceilings.
-2.25lb/sq.yd density prevents resonance vibration in auditoriums and concert halls.
3.Engineered for Efficiency
-Pre-cut 27"x96" sheets reduce installation time by 55% vs. traditional wire mesh.
-Fluted edges minimize plaster waste during application.
Applications
-Commercial Buildings: Apartment ceilings, airport terminals with mechanical load demands.
-Industrial Facilities: Chemical plant washdown zones requiring rust resistance.
-Retrofit Projects: Strengthening cracked plaster in heritage buildings.
-Fire-Rated Systems: UL® compatibility for 2-hour ceiling assemblies.
Service Advantages
-MOQ: 500 sheets | Customizable sheet lengths (8ft/10ft/12ft).
-Free ceiling load calculation templates with orders.

FAQ
1. What is dimpled metal lath used for?
It is used as a superior plaster base in stucco and masonry systems. The dimples create an air gap that enhances mechanical bonding and moisture drainage, improving overall system durability.
2. Does it meet North American construction standards?
Yes. Our dimpled lath is manufactured in compliance with ASTM C847 and is suitable for use in both U.S. and Canadian building systems. ICC-ES certification is also available for select models.
3. What are the key benefits of the dimpled design?
The dimpled structure increases rigidity, improves plaster grip, allows better keying of cementitious materials, and promotes drainage behind the lath—ideal for EIFS and moisture-managed walls.
4. What is your minimum order quantity and lead time?
The minimum order is 2 pallets (1,000 sheets total, 500 sheets per pallet). Lead time is 15–20 working days depending on order size and customization.
5. How do you package the product for export?
We use durable palletized packaging, suitable for container shipping. Custom labeling and weather-resistant wrapping are available on request to meet project or distributor needs.
