X-2 CORNER BEAD
Superior to X-1 due to the added stiffener strip that affords additional rigidity to the flange. The flange width is 3 ¼ inches wide and is easier to form, install and keep straight than traditional corner beads. Furnished in galvanized steel and zinc alloy. Weight per 1000 lineal feet, galvanized, 254 Lbs., zinc weight, 224 lbs.

X-1 and X-2 Corner Beads for outside corners have a smooth round nose bead with Diamond Mesh wings for the keying of plaster right up to the nose of the bead.

This mesh insures a perfect bond and provides effective reinforcement where most needed. Especially recommended in fireproofing columns and beams. Rigid straight edge nose is easy to install and permits plumb straight outside corners. Excellent protection for corridor corners exposed to traffic.

AMICO X-1 Corner Bead is manufactured with a 3-inch flange and is available in both galvanized steel and zinc. Sections can be joined or spliced together by inserting a finishing nail or a piece of hangar wire.
