Self Furred Metal Lath

Self-Furring Metal Lath is made for masonry surfaces with hardened concrete nails and fasteners. Materials used are usually hot dipped galvanized steel sheets.

Metal lath used over solid surfaces to be furred approximately ? inch away from the wall to allow for the proper stucco keying behind the lath. Self-furred diamond mesh lath has a surface studded in dimples or embossed “V” groove that provide the required ? inch of furring. Fastener placement should be arranged so as not to negate the furring mechanism.
