Astm C847 Code-compliant Welded Wire Lath With Kraft Paper Backing For Stucco Systems

WSFIVIN’s ASTM C847-compliant Welded Wire Lath sets a new standard for stucco reinforcement, merging code-certified reliability with unparalleled versatility for North America’s diverse construction demands. Expertly crafted for architects, contractors, and distributors, this galvanized steel lath features a 1" x 1" welded grid permanently fused to a heavy-duty asphalt-impregnated kraft paper backing, delivering a unified system that eliminates the need for separate moisture barriers. Rigorously tested to surpass ASTM C847 requirements, it ensures exceptional corrosion resistance, fire performance (ASTM E119), and load distribution while reducing installation time by 30%. Engineered for both flat and curved surfaces, the lath’s self-sealing paper actively repels water infiltration, making it ideal for coastal zones, freeze-thaw regions, and urban projects requiring long-term weather resilience.

Durability Meets Precision Engineering
The 17-gauge hot-dip galvanized steel grid employs robotic welding technology to create consistent diamond-shaped openings, optimizing stucco adhesion and preventing sagging under heavy base coats. Unlike cheaper alternatives, the 55 lb asphalt-saturated kraft paper backing resists peeling, tearing, and mold growth—even after prolonged on-site exposure—ensuring a flawless bond with substrates like wood, metal, or masonry. Reinforced edges and pre-marked fastener lines simplify alignment, while the diamond rib design enhances airflow to mitigate moisture buildup behind stucco finishes. Designed as a single-layer solution, it cuts labor costs and material waste, outperforming traditional two-step lath-and-paper systems.

Key Applications Across North American Markets

• Commercial Facades: Streamline fire-rated exterior assemblies for high-rises in Chicago or mixed-use developments in Vancouver.
• Coastal & High-Humidity Zones: Combat salt spray in Florida or heavy rains in Seattle with anti-corrosion protection that lasts decades.
• Historical Renovations: Strengthen heritage structures non-invasively, avoiding damage to delicate original materials.
• Energy-Efficient Building: Integrate seamlessly into insulated stucco systems (EIFS) for LEED-certified projects targeting sustainability goals.
• Disaster-Prone Regions: Reinforce structures in earthquake-active California or hurricane-vulnerable Gulf Coast areas with grid-tested tensile strength.

Built for Professionals Who Prioritize Compliance & Efficiency
WSFIVIN’s ASTM C847-certified lath is tailored for contractors and distributors seeking code-compliant, low-maintenance solutions. Customizable roll lengths (up to 200 ft) and palletized bulk orders (20 rolls/pallet) minimize waste and optimize shipping logistics across borders. Backed by a 25-year limited warranty and BIM-compatible specifications, this product reduces liability risks and lifetime costs while meeting stringent state and municipal building codes. Our North American support team offers expedited prototyping, volume discounts, and technical guidance to keep complex projects on schedule—proving why leading firms trust WSFIVIN as their stucco system partner.

FAQ

1. Why choose WSFIVIN's Welded Stucco Mesh?
Our stucco mesh is made with high-strength low-carbon steel wire and precision automatic welding, ensuring a flat surface and firm joints that won’t deform or break during installation. The hot-dip galvanized finish offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it reliable for both indoor and outdoor use. We deliver true construction-grade products, not cheap alternatives with inconsistent quality.

2. Is your price higher than other suppliers?
We may not be the lowest, but we offer better value for money. Our controlled manufacturing and stable supply chain allow us to offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. Our long-term clients report fewer product failures and longer service life, which means lower total cost in the long run.

3. Can you customize according to project needs?
Absolutely. We support full customization — wire gauge, mesh size, roll width/length, and even waterproof paper backing (K-Lath). If you have project drawings or special installation requirements, we can provide OEM/ODM services to match your needs across different markets and applications.

4. How fast is delivery? Can you handle large orders?
We keep standard sizes in stock for fast dispatch within 3 working days. Custom orders usually ship within 7–10 days. With strong production capacity and export experience, we ensure stable, on-time delivery even for bulk orders — so your project timeline is never at risk.

5. I’m still unsure — can I get a sample? What support do you offer?
Yes — we offer free samples (freight collected) so you can evaluate the quality yourself. Our team provides responsive pre-sales and after-sales service, along with ISO certification, test reports, and export documents (CO, Form E, etc.). We’re committed to making your experience smooth, reliable, and worry-free from inquiry to delivery.
