Description

Paper-Faced Metal Corner Bead is produced with strong, bleached kraft paper tape that is laminated to a sturdy, rust-resistant metal beads.
Strong paper tape prevent cracking caused by movement or shrinkage of framing.
Galvanized metal have maximum strength and protection for corners and increased rust resistance.
It resists edge cracking and chipping, resulting in corners that stay beautiful despite normal building movement and everyday wear-and-tear.
The paper-faced angle beads can be installed without fasteners by embedding into joint compound.

Applications

Paper-Faced Corner Bead features traditional styled corners to provide clean, sharp lines and give architectural details such as paint transitions and step bulkheads a more dramatic look.

Recommended installation method

1. Outside corners apply a band of joint compound 100mm wide and 6mm thick to each side of the corner.
2. Cut the paper faced angle beads to length required and position over the joint compound allow 1/2” at bottom for expansion and contraction of framing members.
3. Embed the corner beads firmly into the compound. Using a small finishing knife, wipe the excess compound from under the paper to eliminate all air bubbles. Allow to dry.
4. Using a large finishing knife, apply compound in a band about 200mm wide from the nose of the beads beyond the paper edge.
5. Level compound by drawing the knife along the beads with one edge of the blade riding on the nose and the other on the surface of the board.
6. Apply second coat one previous coat is dry, feather the edge of each coat about 50mm beyond the preceding coat.
