Availability:
Plaster Stop Bead is a product made out of hot dip Galvanized iron of nominal thickness 0.35mm with zinc coating of 120gms/square meters. The product is available in standard lengths form but with varying depths as per the plastering depth requirements.
Advantages:
Many advantages could be cited here for not using any products to stop these aberrations in the building.
1. Generally when the plastering is done on the wall surfaces adjoining the doors and window frames there is a tendency for the cracks to develop along the point of contact because of the nature of the two different types of materials. When the Plaster stop bead is used for the abutment of the two surfaces then a crack free Joint is obtained which enhances the aesthetic looks of the abutment. 2. There is already an existing method, which uses the simple masonry tools to create the plastering groves on the wall surfaces. But this particular method has a draw back in itself in lack of consistency of the openings, inconsistent and rough edges of the groves, failure of the groves to adhere to the same level etc. However, when the plaster stop beads are used all these problems are solved at one stretch, and it gives a generally good appearance when grove patterns are made on the wall surfaces. 3. Application saves considerable time, mortar and labour in creating groves. Reason being, as the practice stands thick mortar is used, and the groves are made by hand using regular masonry tools which consumes lot of labour and mortar, and wastage of mortar is minimized.

INSTALLATION:
Fixing is very quick and simple, by applying plaster dabs to the walling at 600 mm intervals and pressing the stopper bead against the dabs or by using galvanized nails for fixing at the same intervals, holding firmly to the side of the wood finish and applying pre plaster coating, curing the pre plaster. After the pre plaster is set, apply plaster finish as done in the normal course.
For making groves pattern on external walls plastering, fix stop bead on one side as required leveling with timber grounds, apply plaster dabs at required intervals or alternatively use galvanized nails for fixing and apply pre plaster. When this bead is set with pre plastering, fix the second bead into position using timber inserts for the required gap between the two beads leveling with timber grounds and apply pre plaster. When both beads are set remove timber inserts and complete the plastering as done in normal course.
High quality Plaster Stop Beads are excellent to use wherever a finished plaster edge is required. They are economical to use and are easily fixed by using plaster dabs or suitable galvanized nails and like the Corner Bead the flange also gives an ideal mechanical key for all types of plaster.
