Plastic render beads, also known as render beads, are a vital component in achieving a professional and long-lasting finish for your rendering projects. These lightweight and versatile profiles are strategically placed during the rendering process to:
- Protect Edges: By creating a reinforced barrier, plastic render beads safeguard vulnerable corners and edges from cracks, chips, and impact damage. This is particularly important for external renders exposed to weather elements.
- Ensure Straight Lines: Plastic render beads act as a guide, ensuring your render application follows a clean and precise line. This is especially beneficial for creating sharp corners (using angle beads) or straight transitions between surfaces (using stop beads).
- Improve Overall Strength: The presence of plastic render beads adds rigidity to the render, minimizing the risk of future cracking and movement.
We offer a variety of plastic render beads to cater to your specific requirements, including:
What type of plastic render bead should I use for my project?
The type of plastic render bead you need will depend on your specific project requirements. Here's a quick guide:
- Angle Bead: For creating sharp and defined external corners.
- Stop Bead: For creating clean transitions between different surfaces.
- Drip Bead: To divert rainwater away from the wall.
- Corner Bead Mesh: For additional reinforcement of external corners in high-impact areas.
- Expansion Bead: To accommodate movement within the render caused by temperature changes.
