Applications
Expanded metal mesh can be used as a reinforcing material for rendering, also known as a “scratch coat”, which is the first layer applied to a surface before the final render is applied. The expanded metal mesh is typically embedded in the wet rendering material and provides additional strength and stability to the surface, preventing cracking and other issues. It also helps to bridge any cracks or holes that may exist in the surface, providing a smooth and even surface for the final render.
It is used in the external insulation and finish systems (EIFS) in the construction industry as a reinforcement for the insulation layer. It is applied to the insulation layer which is then covered with a finish coat, this helps to increase the strength and durability of the insulation, preventing cracking and other issues.
Additionally, expanded metal mesh is also used in the construction of stucco walls, which is a traditional form of wall finish made of cement, sand, and water. The expanded metal mesh is embedded in the wet stucco mixture and helps to reinforce the wall and prevent cracking.
