65mm x 3m Gi Angle Bead - Per Ctn

This angle bead measures 65mm in width and 3 meters in length, making it suitable for creating sharp, clean corners in plastering and rendering projects.

The primary purpose of the GI Angle Bead is to reinforce external corners and edges, ensuring they remain robust and free from damage during and after plastering. It helps achieve a perfect 90° angle, contributing to a professional finish.

Installation can be done using suitable fixings such as galvanised or stainless steel nails, which should be spaced a maximum of 600mm apart. The bead can also be pressed onto dabs of plaster or adhesive for added stability.

While the galvanised finish provides corrosion resistance, it is advisable to inspect the bead periodically for any signs of wear or damage, especially in areas exposed to moisture. Regular checks can help maintain its integrity over time.

The GI Angle Bead is designed to accommodate render depths ranging from 16mm to 20mm, making it versatile for various plastering applications.

Yes, this product typically comes with a one-year guarantee, ensuring its quality and performance under normal usage conditions.

Yes, the galvanised steel surface of the angle bead can be painted to match any decor, allowing for customization in aesthetic finishes while maintaining its protective qualities.

A GI angle bead is a galvanized steel corner reinforcement used on internal and external plastering corners. It reinforces the corner, creates sharp, plaster-ready edges, helps prevent cracking, and can reduce the amount of plaster needed by providing a precise edge for a smooth finish.

It’s made from galvanized steel, which provides corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior applications, helping the corner stay strong and maintain a clean edge over time.

By reinforcing the corner and controlling movement at joints, the GI angle bead reduces the tendency for cracks to form during shrinkage and movement. This helps limit water ingress pathways and abrasion at the corner that can arise during plastering.

It creates a sharp, plaster-ready edge, eliminates chalk marks, and produces a flatter, more uniform plaster surface at corners. This can also reduce plaster usage and improve the overall finish.

It’s suitable for brick, block, or stone corners and can be used on both internal and external plastering projects. It’s ideal for reinforcing building corners in various structural setups.

Measure and cut the bead to length, align it along the corner, and fix it in place with appropriate fasteners or bonding material as you plaster. Apply plaster to both sides, ensuring the bead remains sharp and flush with the surface, then finish as desired.

Availability varies by stock and project needs. Check the product options on the listing to select the correct length and gauge for your corner and plaster thickness.
