How is NO-COAT different from paper faced metal corner bead?
First, the NO-COAT Structural Laminate Drywall Corner is not a corner bead. Paper faced metal corners and metal corner beads have a beaded nose, which requires a deep fill coat of joint compound to create the illusion of a flat surface. Instead, NO-COAT corners utilize a unique structural laminate (SLAM) design with a tapered co-polymer plastic center that eliminates the need for deep and repetitive coats. We also guarantee our corners against edge deformation, the prevalent cosmetic flaw of the paper-faced bead. Last, NO-COAT drywall corners have a greater flange width, and can span greater gaps. We encourage you to browse the NO-COAT site to learn more about the features and benefits of the NO-COAT Drywall Corner System.
