Storage and Protection
The installation of Locusrite beads should be in accordance with BS 5492:1990 (internal) and BS 5492:1991 (external).
The most appropriate Locusrite bead should be chosen to suit the application, required plaster/render depthand desired finish.
Beads should be fixed using plaster dabs or mechanical fixings at a maximum of 600mm intervals. Beads can alsobe fixed to lath sheets by the use of galvanised or stainless steel tye wire.
Use tinsnips to cut the bead wings and a fine toothed saw to cut the nosing.
Care should be taken to ensure that steel beads are kept dry, and stored and handled in a way to preventdistortion and general damage, especially to the galvanised coating. This means storing them off the ground ona flat surface.
The risk of corrosion in galvanised beads will normally only become apparent during the initial drying outperiod of the plaster, which should be kept to an absolute minimum (maximum 5-7 days), and subsequentlyduring periods of heavy condensation and dampness.
All metal components used in a particular installation must be of all the same material type, i.e stainless fixingswith stainless beads/sheets and galvanised fixings for galvanised bead/sheets.
In external applications and in conditions where heavy condensation, persistent damp or regular exposure tomoisture are likely, stainless steel or PVC-U beads must be used.
Stainless steel beads are for use with cement based renders and not for use with gypsum based plasters unless
they are specified with an approved protective finish.
The Powder-coated range of bead is available in boxes of 50 lengths per carton.

Installation of Metal Lathing and Mesh
Fixing of Expanded Metal Lathing Sheets
Fix with the long way of mesh running from support to support, with all strands sloping downwards andinwards from the face of the coating. Always ensure when fixing that allowance is made for overlapping sheetsby 50mm lengthways and 25mm widthways.
Timber Support
To connect to timber use 40mm plasterer’s nails or staples at 100mm centres. Start at the centre of the sheet
and work out towards the edges. Always fix at an angle to allow lath to be pulled tight. Ensure that compatiblecorrosion resistant fixings are used ie. do not use galvanised fixings with stainless products.
Metal Support
To fix to steel channels, tie with 1.2mm tying wire at 100mm centres. Tie by creating a ‘hairpin’ shape with thewire, then pull tight and twist. Take care that cut wire ends are not close to plaster surface.
To Solid Background
Expanded Metal Lath can be fixed to a solid background using a suitable fixing with an integral spacer/washerand large diameter headed screw/nail that will keep the sheets firmly in place.

Riblath is fixed so that the tip of the rib is placed against the supporting background. The rib of the sheetshould run at right angles to any supports. Ensure that sheets are overlapped by a minimum of 50mm end toend and by 25mm widthways and that the ribs are nestled together.
Timber Support
Riblath is fixed at each rib to timber supports using plasterers’ nails or staples. Ensure that compatible corrosion
resistant fixings are used, ie. do not use galvanised fixings for stainless steel.
Metal Support
Riblath is fixed at each rib to metal support using 1.63mm galvanised or stainless steel tying wire. When joiningriblath sheets overlap the edge ribs and tie the edges with 1.22mm tying wire at 150mm centres.
Solid Background
Riblath can be fixed to a solid background using a suitable fixing which holds the ribs firmly against thebackground. Where sheets are installed vertically, fixings should be positioned through all ribs at 600mmcentres to ensure adequate stability.

Health and Safety Data
HandlingThe nature of cutting metal, as required by the manufacture of Locusrite products, may resultin sharp or burred edges.
Users should exercise care in handling, using protective equipment where deemed necessary,such as gloves, clothing and eye protection.
PackagingThe steel band used to contain certain products is, by necessity, under tension. Care must betaken when cutting the banding to avoid flying ends etc.
The shrink wrap polythene used to contain the product is not acting as protection from sharpedges and care should be taken when handling such items.
Stainless SteelSteel containing various combinations of different elements, a breakdown of which isavailable on request. The product is chemically stable except under extreme heats. In itsnormal state stainless steel represents no health hazards. However, treatment such aswelding, grinding or burning can result in fumes and/or the production of airborne particles.
The main method of ingestion is by inhalation, which should be avoided by ventilation orlocal extraction. Exposure limits (ref. H.S.E. Guidance Note EH 40) need to be observed.
Galvanised Mild SteelMild Steel with a coating of zinc bonded by an electrolytic process. Exposed to heat in excessof 900 degrees centigrade (by fire, welding or flame cutting) the galvanised coating willoxidise, producing copious zinc oxide fumes. Under these circumstances it is recommendedthat extraction systems be used to ensure that Occupational Exposure Levels are not
exceeded and to avoid metal fume fever.
