O = Paper is oset 1" on one long edge and end to ensure proper lath-to-lath laps and a
minimum 2" paper overhang on the opposing long edge and end.
Note: Asphalt paper-backed lath is available in a variety of osets for various applications
requiring a moisture barrier. Paper conforms to Federal Specification UU-B-790A; type
grade D, style 2 and type 1, grade B, style 1a.
SELFFURRING DIMPLED LATH
ClarkDietrich self-furring
dimpled lath is manufactured with
approximately 1/4" deep dimples
that raise diamond mesh away from
solid surfaces to enable thorough
plaster or stucco penetration
into and behind the lath for
superior mechanical bonding. The
dimples are spaced every 1-1/2"
over the rectangular sheet, with
approximately 11,000 keys per
square yard. Fasteners must be
applied within the dimple cavity,
to maintain designed furring
characteristics.
