US Gypsum 163841-RDC06 Structo-Lite Gypsum Basecoat Plaster, 50 lb

Structo-Lite Basecoat is a mill-mixed perlite-aggregate gypsum plaster. It requires only the addition of water at the jobsite. Structo-Lite Basecoat is USG’s lightest-weight and most highly insulated plaster. Structo-Lite Basecoat provides a plastic working material that will conform to various designs and help achieve durability in walls and ceilings. It can be applied by hand or machine methods, on gypsum or metal lath, clay tile, concrete or cinder blocks and other approved plaster bases. Fire Protection Gypsum plasters specially made for fire-protection applications and used with specified plaster bases, provide excellent fire protection. Sound Isolation Sound Isolation In certain systems, gypsum plasters offer sound transmission loss characteristics suitable for most requirements. Sanded basecoat plaster provides optimum results. Control of Set Structo-Lite Basecoat is formulated for use in varying climatic conditions and job conditions. The quicker a gypsum plaster sets, the stronger the basecoat.

It provides a plastic working material that conforms to various designs, helping achieve durability in walls and ceilings. It weighs half as much as sanded basecoat plaster and is perfect for locations where an aggregate is unavailable. The mill-mixed, perlite-aggregate gypsum plaster requires only the addition of water at the jobsite. It applies quickly and easily by hand or machine on gypsum or metal lath, clay tile, concrete, cinder blocks, and other approved plaster bases. The basecoat provides thermal conductivity. Its strong insulation properties provide a k factor (a measure of heat conductivity of a particular material) of 1.74, three times the insulation value of sanded plaster.
