High Rib Lath

Phillips High Rib Lath is intended for horizontal applications with its seven longitudinal ribs, each 3/8″ deep and eight small flat ribs to provide additional rigidity. High Rib Lath is the most rigid of all laths and provides the added support required when framing is more than 16″O.C. but does not exceed 24″ O.C. It is commonly used for soffits and ceilings under steel or wood joist construction & metal-reinforced concrete floors.
3/8″ High Rib Lath has a herringbone mesh pattern with 3/8″ V-shaped ribs running the length of the sheet at 4 ½” intervals and inverted 3/16″ intermediate ribs. The rib is placed against the framing member and does not require a minimum 1″ three-coat system. This lath can be used for stud less no-load-bearing partitions by wire tying lath back to back with ribs running perpendicular to each other. Plaster can then be applied to form a wall 2″ thick. Available in 3.4 (34RLHDG8). Submittal, MSDS and Technical Specifications coming soon.
