Plaster corner beads

Plaster corner bead profiles are used at plastered corners and reveals. They provide a straight edge and clean line, as well as protection against everyday knocks, scrapes and collisions.

PVCu plaster beads are an unobtrusive component of render systems that will never rust or stain; unlike steel alternatives.

The strength and durability that PVCu offers protects plaster from damage in the event of impact.

Plaster corner beads

PVCu plaster corner beads help to achieve a perfect finish in plastered walls and contribute towards maintaining this appearance for the life of the plaster.

Made from recycled PVCu, plaster corner beads give specifiers and contractors peace of mind that they’re using a safe and easy-to-install product that doesn’t compromise the end result for the homeowner, building owner or facilities manager.

Like all Renderplas bead profiles, plaster corner beads are readily available through our extensive merchant network. They help to deliver a high standard of finish that is guaranteed to be fit-for-purpose for a minimum of 25 years.

Plaster corner bead applications

Plaster corner beads are designed for use as part of internal plastered finishes. They are installed at all plastered corners and reveals to give a straight edge.

Corners can be particularly vulnerable to impact, and the inherent strength and durability of PVCu corner bead profiles help to protect the finish against impact damage.

If the internal finish is a dry-lined application, then plasterboard angle beads or skim beads should be used.

For external finishes, render angle beads are used with external rendering.

Correctly specified and installed plaster beading helps to achieve well-defined and reinforced edges in plastered walls. As with all PVCu bead profiles, plaster corner beads provide a good key, allowing installers to achieve the best possible finish.

Corner beads are small components which can have a big impact on the aesthetics of plastered finishes in residential and commercial projects. Renderplas corner beads are available in depths of 4mm to 20mm to suit the chosen plaster depth.

Therefore, our external PVCu render beads come in up to nine colours to match the vast majority of renders available from the leading UK manufacturers, including Clayworks, Ecorend, K Rend, Parex and Weber. Renderplas PVC beads need no alternative maintenance and eliminate the time and cost of repainting, which would be required when using steel bead alternatives. Colours are UV stabilised to provide a perfect finish for years to come.
