About This Item
ASTM C847 is the Standard Specification for Metal Lath, a technical document that helps define expectations for a commonly used reinforcing or supporting product in construction applications. It provides a clear reference for product description, procurement, and quality control when selecting metal lath. By aligning materials with an ASTM standard, buyers and specifiers can better compare products and support consistent performance across projects.
What is ASTM C847?
ASTM C847 is an ASTM standard that establishes a specification for metal lath. As a specification, it is primarily concerned with defining the product in a consistent, standardized way so it can be identified, evaluated, and supplied with less ambiguity. This makes it useful for manufacturers, distributors, specifiers, and project teams that need a reliable technical reference for metal lath requirements. ASTM C847 supports clearer communication between parties involved in material selection and acceptance.
Where is ASTM C847 used?
The standard is commonly used wherever metal lath is specified for construction or finishing work that depends on a defined material product. It is especially relevant in procurement documents, product submittals, and specification packages where metal lath must be identified clearly. ASTM C847 may also be referenced during quality control and acceptance checks to help confirm that supplied material matches the intended specification and project requirements.
Why is ASTM C847 important?
ASTM C847 matters because a clear specification helps reduce confusion when ordering, reviewing, or accepting metal lath. Using a recognized ASTM standard supports consistency across suppliers and projects, which can simplify compliance and product comparison. It also helps reduce risk by giving teams a common technical baseline for evaluation. For organizations that rely on standardized materials, ASTM C847 can improve documentation, purchasing accuracy, and overall quality assurance.
