Strait-Flex Mid-Flex is a muddable, paper-faced composite, flexible corner bead that adjusts to any angle to create perfect inside and outside 90? and off-angle corners.
The composite structural backing provides strength for durability and impact resistance. The heavy-weight, diamond punched paper provides maximum adhesion for an even lay-down of the paper edge and reduced edge cracking. Strait-Flex Mid-Flex is packaged in 30.5m rolls that can be cut to the desired length in the field to minimize scrap loss.
Key Features:
- Memory-free hinge produces straight corners and perfect angles
- Smooth nose provides a square, low profile ? drywall knives will not catch, snag or puncture centre hinge
- Composite-fibre structural backing provides strength and embeds into compound to provide a superior bond to the drywall surface
- Diamond-punched paper edging provides maximum adhesion ? no cracks, no call backs
- Paper surface is pre-treated to accept paint, finishing compound is not required over the laminated area ? uses the half the compound vs. standard corner bead
- Paper will not fuzz-up during finish sanding like paper and mesh tapes
- Installs with all-purpose joint compound. No special tools or fasteners are needed. Lightweight compound may be used to finish.
Applications:
- Great for vaulted, coffered and tray ceilings, bay windows.
- Outside corners where common gaps in drywall are present.
- Outside corners where a large fill or straightening is required, no back filling needed.
