Question 1

What exactly is the Metex GI Plaster Mesh 20 cm x 30 m, and what is it used for?

Accepted Answer

Metex GI Plaster Mesh is a high-density galvanized iron mesh used to reinforce plaster on walls. The 20 cm width and 30 m length make it suitable for larger plastering jobs, helping to reduce cracking and improve durability on internal walls, masonry, and concrete surfaces.

Question 2

What are the key specifications of this mesh (material, width, length, and density)?

Accepted Answer

Material: galvanized iron (GI). Width: 20 cm. Length: 30 meters. Density: high-density construction designed for strong reinforcement and crack resistance in plaster work.

Question 3

Why should I choose a high-density GI plaster mesh for plastering projects?

Accepted Answer

High-density GI mesh provides greater tensile strength and stiffness, helping to distribute plaster stresses evenly, reduce cracking, and improve long-term durability in both interior and damp environments.

Question 4

How do I install and cut Metex GI Plaster Mesh to fit a area?

Accepted Answer

Measure the area, cut the mesh using tin snips or scissors, and overlap edges by about 10–15 cm. Position the mesh on a stable surface or over lath, then embed it into the base coat of plaster. Secure with appropriate fixings if needed and apply subsequent plaster coats to cover and bond the mesh evenly.

Question 5

What are the best-use scenarios for this plaster mesh?

Accepted Answer

It is ideal for reinforcing plaster over brick, block, or concrete walls, especially in areas prone to movement or cracking. It performs well in typical indoor applications and damp environments where corrosion resistance is beneficial.

Question 6

Is this mesh suitable for exterior or wet-area plastering?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The galvanized iron construction provides corrosion resistance, making it suitable for damp or humid environments. For exterior plastering, follow the project’s substrate preparation and plaster mix guidelines to maximize longevity.

Question 7

What other sizes or variants of Metex GI Plaster Mesh are available on Fepy, and how do they compare?

Accepted Answer

Other sizes you can explore on Fepy include Metex GI Plaster Mesh 25 cm x 30 m and Metex GI Plaster Mesh 20 cm x 50 m. Compare widths to match your wall details and length to minimize joints. See availability at these product pages:

Question 8

How does Metex GI Plaster Mesh 20 cm x 30 m compare with Metex GI Plaster Mesh 20 cm x 50 m in terms of coverage and use?

Accepted Answer

Both have the same width (20 cm) but the 50 m length provides more coverage per roll, reducing the number of joints and roll changes on larger projects. The 30 m version is suitable for smaller walls or patch repairs. For large surfaces, the 20 cm x 50 m option can be more efficient.

Question 9

How does Metex GI Plaster Mesh 20 cm x 30 m compare with Metex GI Plaster Mesh 25 cm x 30 m?

Accepted Answer

The 25 cm width offers broader coverage per pass, potentially reducing the number of laps on wide surfaces, but requires larger tooling to cut and fit. The 20 cm version provides greater flexibility on narrower walls or around obstacles. Product link: https://fepy.com/product/metex-gi-plaster-mesh-25cm-30m

Question 10

What safety considerations should I follow when handling and installing this plaster mesh?

Accepted Answer

Wear cut-resistant gloves to protect hands from sharp edges, use eye protection if cutting, and dispose of offcuts safely. When cutting, work on a stable surface and avoid creating loose steel fibers. Store rolls in a dry area to prevent corrosion prior to use.

Question 11

How many meters does a roll cover and what packaging options are available?

Accepted Answer

Each roll covers 30 meters of length at 20 cm width. Packaging typically consists of single rolls or bundles of rolls depending on availability; check the product page for current packaging options and quantities.

Question 12

What makes Metex GI Plaster Mesh a value-focused choice for plaster reinforcement over other options?

Accepted Answer

The combination of corrosion-resistant galvanized iron, high-density reinforcement, and convenient 20 cm x 30 m sizing delivers strong crack resistance and durable plaster finishes at a competitive price per square meter, especially for typical interior wall plastering projects.
