Dry lining beads

PVCu beads for dry lining / drywall applications

Renderplas PVCu dry lining beads offer the perfect solution for skim plastering and drywall applications. Because they are made locally from cost-effective recycled PVCu, they offer a value for money alternative to metal products. They are guaranteed not to stain during a lengthy drying out process, or in situations with high moisture or salts such as kitchens, bathrooms and pool enclosures. They are particularly well suited to schools, prisons, and hospitals as they do not provide any threat to safety either after a heavy impact or if pulled out of the wall.

Application:  Corner beads provide a clean edge and impact protection on external corners. Arch beads create smooth curves in arched reveals. Edge beads provide a clean attractive stop to plasterboard where it meets another finish, such as a brick wall or door frame, and prevent cracking. Architrave beads provide a shadow gap between the wall and ceilings, skirting boards and door frames.

Colours:  Stocked in white in all profiles.

Performance:  Like all Renderplas products, the dry lining range is manufactured from exterior grade, impact resistant, UV stable unplasticised PVCu. They offer several benefits over metal beads whilst still giving excellent protection from impact and providing clean edges that often do not need painting. PVCu beads are guaranteed never to rust and they will not stain as metal beads can do in lengthy drying periods. They are the perfect choice in situations with high moisture or salts such as kitchens, bathrooms and pool enclosures, but are equally suited to all general plasterboard applications.

Health and safety:  PVCu beads are completely safe to handle during application and do not have the razor sharp edges of cut metal. They are also preferred in schools, hospitals, and prisons as they do not provide any threat to safety either after a heavy impact or if pulled out of the wall.

Storage, cutting and fixing:  Store vertically away from heat and direct sun, or flat if supported along the entire length. PVCu beads are fast and easy to cut to length with tin snips or a fine-toothed hacksaw. They are simply fixed with nails or staples through the wing of the bead.

Packing:  Supplied in 2.5m or 3.0m lengths in robust fibreboard tubes or high strength corrugated boxes in 6, 25 or 50 lengths per pack as shown in the table below.
