Corrosion-Resistant Hot Dipped Galvanized High Rib Lath for Construction

Our Hot Dipped Galvanized High Rib Lath is a structural reinforcement sheet designed for demanding construction environments where strong support and long-term corrosion resistance are essential. The product is manufactured by expanding high-quality steel sheets and forming continuous deep ribs that greatly enhance rigidity, load capacity, and stability.

Thanks to its hot-dip galvanized coating, the lath offers superior protection against moisture, alkaline materials, and harsh jobsite conditions. This ensures reliable performance in foundations, wall reinforcement, concrete formwork, and shotcrete applications. The expanded diamond openings allow mortar or concrete to easily penetrate and create a secure mechanical bond, improving adhesion and structural integrity.

Lightweight, easy to trim, and simple to fasten, this high rib lath reduces installation time while providing consistent quality for both new construction and renovation projects.

FAQ

1. What is High Rib Lath used for?

High Rib Lath is designed for heavy-duty stucco, concrete, and plaster applications. It’s ideal for walls, ceilings, and formwork where superior reinforcement and mechanical keying are required.

2. Does your High Rib Lath meet U.S. and Canadian building codes?

Yes. Our product complies with ASTM C847 and is ICC-ES certified, ensuring it meets the structural and safety requirements of North American construction standards.

3. What makes High Rib Lath different from regular metal lath?

It features deep ribs and expanded metal openings for added stiffness and superior bonding. The ribbed profile provides strong support for thick plaster or concrete applications, even over wide spans.

4. What is the minimum order and lead time?

The MOQ is 2 pallets (total of 1,000 sheets, 500 sheets per pallet). Lead time is typically 15–20 working days, depending on order size and customization.

5. How is the product packaged for export?

We use sturdy palletized packaging for safe container shipping. Each pallet is tightly strapped and can be customized with waterproof wrap or branding labels as needed.
