SpiderLath

SpiderLath is a uniquely designed fiberglass lath that is a great replacement for metal lath.  It is made of AR fiberglass, which is very compatible with cementitous mixes. Other advantages include: much faster installation compared to metal lath and fewer joints to cause cracks.

The twisted weave design also helps in keying the mortar.

SpiderLath adds tensile and flexural strength to the cementitous material providing a stronger bond. It is versatile and strong enough to use with heavy weight products such as three coat stucco and natural stone veneer.

SpiderLath is used in all the places that metal lath would normally be used.  It  is easier to install, less expensive, and will not rust like other metal laths.  Another benefit is the weight.  Weighing only 20 lbs. per roll (300 sq. ft.), the equivalent in metal lath would weigh about 90 lbs.  This makes SpiderLath much easier to move around your job site.
