Moisture-Managing Stucco Lath

Sure Cavity Stucco Lath from MTI combines a rainscreen with fire-rated stucco lath to help manage moisture, meet fire codes in International Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) zones, and save on labor. An integrated layer of perforated and corrugated polyester material creates a ³⁄₁₆‑inch drainage gap while a vapor-permeable lath supports ventilation. MTI recommends lapping the sheets shingle-style at horizontal seams, using the integral 2-inch skirt. The product weighs less than metal lath and won’t rust, according to the manufacturer, and is ideal for multi­story residential and commercial applications. mtidry.com
