Application:

Movement Beads allow for movement between adjoining surfaces resulting in differential expansion and expansion within the plastered /rendered area, which allows movement of +/- 3mm. Movement Beads should be installed at no greater than 5m intervals. Movement Beads should not be used over structural movement /control joints.

The Product in use helps in improving the quality of the building with respect to the openings that are invariably created because of the space provided for expansion. 

Advantages

Many advantages could be cited here over and above the existing products.
1. Plastering finish at expansion joints looks very neat and straight, thereby enhancing the aesthetic looks.
2. Provides perfect sealing at the joints there by stopping water seepages through the joints.
3. Minimum quantity of epoxy sealant is used thereby cutting cost.
4. Reduces the wastage of time while working with joints, and speeds up the pace of work.
 

Recommended installation method

Beads may be trimmed to length using shears across the wings and a fine-toothed saw across bead nose.

1. Using galvanized or stainless steel nails to fix the angle bead at a interval of about 600mm. When nailing to the solid background, the line of the bead will follow the line of the background.

2. Pressing the bead onto dabs of the similar material as the undercoat; the interval of the dabs should be maximum 600mm. This way will smooth minor irregularities in the line of the background, although the line of the bead will tend to generally follow the line of the background.

This method will smooth the irregularities in the line of the background.

3. When beads are used with metal lath backgrounds, galvanized or stainless steel nails are used to fix the beads position. Soft galvanized wire or stainless steel wire should be used to match the bead and the lath materials. The wires should be twisted tightly and the ends bent away from the finished face of the coating.
