Stucco Wire Mesh Roll / Welded Wire Mesh
Product Overview
Stucco Wire Mesh Roll, also known as Welded Wire Mesh, is a galvanized welded-wire reinforcement used as a base for exterior stucco and Portland cement-based plaster systems.
Manufactured from cold-drawn, low-carbon steel wire, the wires are resistance-welded at the intersections to form a stable square mesh. Galvanized coating helps provide corrosion resistance.
The self-furring design creates space between the wire and substrate, helping provide mechanical keying for the stucco layer.

Material & Welded Structure
Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel Wire
The welded wire lath is manufactured from low-carbon, cold-drawn steel wire with a Class 1 galvanized coating.
The wire complies with the mechanical requirements of ASTM A641, while the galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for stucco and exterior plaster applications.
Resistance-Welded Joints
Longitudinal and cross wires are resistance-welded at their intersections, creating a consistent square mesh structure and helping maintain stable mesh geometry during handling and installation.
Applications
Stucco Wire Mesh is designed for reinforcement and mechanical support in a wide range of exterior stucco and plaster applications.
Installation Information
For 17 Gauge 1-1/2" × 1-1/2" welded stucco wire, installation should follow the applicable project requirements and building codes.
- May be applied to vertical wood or metal framing.
- Fasteners should attach the lath at furring crimps or wire intersections.
- Side laps: minimum one mesh.
- End laps: minimum one mesh and located over supports.
- Installation should follow the applicable requirements of ASTM C1063 and applicable building codes.
