Description

Durex® Medium Impact Lamina is comprised of a layer of Durex® Intermediate Mesh as a reinforcement layer for a polymer-modified and polymer-based cementitious base coat, and used as the medium-grade reinforcing mesh layer in Durex® EIFS Systems and Durex® Stucco Lite System (except for mechanically fastened EIFS systems)

Advantages
  • Capable of withstanding 11 - 15 N.m/cm2 impact forces without breakage of the reinforcement layer
    • Forces equivalent to 2” Stone @ 30kph, or;
    • Hockey Puck @40 kph
  • Fibreglass mesh of tested quality, capable of withstanding high tension without stretching
  • Glass fibres with negligible sensitivity to temperature changes within the wall
  • Proper fibreglass anti-alkaline dressing to avoid quick aging of the wall reinforcement due to corrosion action of alkalis present in coating mortar
  • Provides dimensional stability and enhances performance
Uses
  • Medium Duty Reinforcement Mesh for the base coat layer in all Durex® EIFS Systems when additional impact resistance is required
