Durable Galvanized Welded Paper Backed Metal Lath With Kraft Paper

Durable Galvanized Welded Wire Lath With Kraft Paper

WSFIVIN’s Galvanized Welded Wire Lath with integrated kraft paper delivers unmatched structural reinforcement for traditional 3-coat stucco systems, blending heavy-duty corrosion resistance with proactive moisture management. Designed for North America’s diverse climates, this lath features a hot-dip galvanized steel grid fused to a high-tensile, asphalt-infused kraft paper backing, eliminating the need for separate building felts. Perfect for coastal regions, salt-prone areas, or moisture-heavy interiors, the dual-layer system prevents substrate rust and water damage while ensuring superior stucco adhesion. Pre-cut 2" x 2" welded meshes and paper-backed rolls simplify installation, reducing labor time by 40% compared to traditional methods, and are rigorously tested to meet ASTM C1063 standards for lath performance.

Robust Construction for Lasting Stability
Engineered with 20-gauge galvanized steel wire, the lath excels in tensile strength and durability, resisting sagging under thick stucco layers. The proprietary kraft paper backing is treated with a hydrophobic asphalt coating, creating a seamless barrier against moisture intrusion while allowing vapor diffusion to prevent trapped humidity. Offset diamond-shaped ribs enhance mechanical bonding with scratch coats, and robotic welding ensures consistent grid alignment—critical for crack-free finishes. Lightweight yet rugged, the 48" x 150ft rolls adapt effortlessly to curved surfaces and intricate architectural details like cornices or arched entryways.

Versatile Solutions for Demanding Applications
Ideal for exterior stucco façades in hurricane-prone regions, interior partition walls in humid commercial kitchens, or fire-rated assemblies in mixed-use buildings, this lath excels where structural integrity and moisture control intersect. Contractors rely on its anti-corrosion properties for oceanfront properties in Florida, parking garage soffits exposed to de-icing salts in Canada, and historic renovations requiring minimal substrate disruption. The kraft paper’s self-sealing properties around fasteners ensure airtight installation, while its alkaline-resistant design guarantees compatibility with cement-based stucco mixes.

Engineered for Builders Who Demand Efficiency
WSFIVIN’s lath is the go-to choice for contractors, architects, and distributors prioritizing code compliance and long-term performance. Available in customizable roll lengths (50–200ft) or pre-cut panels, it minimizes material waste on projects ranging from luxury resorts to industrial complexes. Bulk palletized shipments (25 rolls per pallet) streamline logistics, while ASTM certifications accelerate permitting processes. Combined with a 15-year corrosion warranty and dedicated technical support, this solution reduces lifecycle costs by up to 35% compared to traditional systems.

FAQ

 1. Why choose WSFIVIN's Welded Stucco Mesh?
Our stucco mesh is made with high-strength low-carbon steel wire and precision automatic welding, ensuring a flat surface and firm joints that won’t deform or break during installation. The hot-dip galvanized finish offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it reliable for both indoor and outdoor use. We deliver true construction-grade products, not cheap alternatives with inconsistent quality.

2. Is your price higher than other suppliers?
We may not be the lowest, but we offer better value for money. Our controlled manufacturing and stable supply chain allow us to offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. Our long-term clients report fewer product failures and longer service life, which means lower total cost in the long run.

3. Can you customize according to project needs?
Absolutely. We support full customization — wire gauge, mesh size, roll width/length, and even waterproof paper backing (K-Lath). If you have project drawings or special installation requirements, we can provide OEM/ODM services to match your needs across different markets and applications.

4. How fast is delivery? Can you handle large orders?
We keep standard sizes in stock for fast dispatch within 3 working days. Custom orders usually ship within 7–10 days. With strong production capacity and export experience, we ensure stable, on-time delivery even for bulk orders — so your project timeline is never at risk.

5. I’m still unsure — can I get a sample? What support do you offer?
Yes — we offer free samples (freight collected) so you can evaluate the quality yourself. Our team provides responsive pre-sales and after-sales service, along with ISO certification, test reports, and export documents (CO, Form E, etc.). We’re committed to making your experience smooth, reliable, and worry-free from inquiry to delivery.
