EMR Expanded Metal Bed Reinforcement

The ACS expanded metal reinforcement provides extra strength and support in stress areas of walls to prevent cracking where settlement has occurred.

ACS suggest that when using EX it should be placed in every third brickwork or every blockwork bed joint. It can also be used to bond a section of wall to a concrete frame. EX is available in 20 metre rolls in 304 (1.4301) stainless steel.

Note:
1. ACS suggests a 25mm gap is left between the EMR reinforcement and the outer face of the wall with a minimum overlap of 75mm.
2. Pre-galvanised EMR is only to be used in plaster and asphalt situations.
