The standard 录鈥 thick product is a polypropylene mesh bonded to a moisture- and vapor-permeable fabric. It is attached between the veneer and weather resistant barrier and is also available in 3/8鈥 (10mm) and 戮鈥 thicknesses.
Provides continuous drainage and drying for residential and commercial walls
For use between the inner structural wall and exterior cladding. May be used behind stucco, thin brick and stone, manufactured stone, stone and brick masonry, fiber cement, vinyl and wood siding, and with most other absorptive claddings and rainscreen systems.Features
