Plastic Components’ surface mounted “L” bead for DEFS is to be used at windows, doors or any termination point. Extra wide surface flange allows you to adjust and fill any gaps caused by short trimming of the sheathing board. The wide flange has striations and perforations to provide a positive bond of a base to sheathing board. and it also has a built-in 1/8″ (3 mm) stop to ensure the proper thickness of base and finish.
In order to protect and ensure straight corners, Plastic Component’s has designed these products specifically for direct applied finish (DEFS) systems. These products include casing beads for raw cut edges, and wide flange “L” beads for adjusting to uneven cut board. They also include, starter tracks that eliminate the need for expensive back wrapping, control joints to relieve movement, vents that enhance air flow in soffit areas, and decorative reveals, just for good looks.
Field engineered to save time and provide integrity to the direct applied finish system. Plastic Components manufactures them with exterior grade, lead-free PVC material conforming to ASTM standard D1784.
