gripSTIK® Corner Bead provides a rigid protection for the exposed edges of wallboard. This easy-to-install open angle corner support can be nailed, stapled or applied with spray adhesive. The specially knurled and perforated flanges allow excellent joint compound adhesion. No mud additives or priming are needed prior to painting. Phillips bead is dent resistant, won’t rust and easy to cut with shears, knife or fine-tooth hacksaw. The extra wide flange length of 1-3/4″ is ideal for those times a longer flange is needed or desired.
