MILCOR Metallic Building Products 
provide a revolutionary system of inte¬ 
rior construction for the modern build¬ 
ing. Exposed corners are protected from 
blows that would shatter ordinary plas¬ 
ter construction, and cracking in the 
interior corners is eliminated by the ex¬ 
panded wings of MILCOR Expansion 
Corner Bead. Used in conjunction with 
MILCOR Expansion Metal Trim and 
Concealed Picture Molding all wood is 
eliminated, furnishing the ultimate in 
modern, sanitary interior finishing. 
More than four million feet of MILCOR Expansion Corner Bead has been 
placed within the last twelve months in the better buildings in America. 
Architects and builders have been quick to realize the superiority of ex¬ 
panded metal construction applied to comer bead design—a feature found 
exclusively in this modern MILCOR product. 
Instead of presenting a flat metal surface like old style beads the ex¬ 
panded mesh of this new product actually strengthens the comer by allow¬ 
ing the plaster to key through both itself and the lath to which it is applied. 
Further, tests show that the expanded structure quickly distributes the 
force of any impact allowing absorption of greater blows without chipping 
or cracking of the plaster. 
This New Expansion 
Corner Bead Gives 
Better Results at Less 
Expense 
This expanded design is also responsible for the economy of this better 
corner bead. The open mesh is a great time saver, offering a multitude of 
points where it can be wired, nailed or stapled in place. No clips are re¬ 
quired and the slight additional first cost is repaid many times by the labor 
saving in its erection. Insist on Expansion Bead—no substitute can be as 
satisfactory. The name MILCOR is your protection. 
MILCOR Expansion Corner Bead ef¬ 
fects great savings in erection costs, the 
expanded metal wings providing a mul¬ 
titude of places for attaching by nails, 
wire or staples. The bead is drawn, not 
stamped, giving perfect alignment and 
greater strength. In addition to protect¬ 
ing any corner, it actually increases its 
strength, the expanded metal design al¬ 
lowing the plaster to key through both 
itself and the lath to which it is applied.
