Gyproc AquaBead Flex Pro Flexible Corner Bead - 85mm x 25m Roll

Gyproc AquaBead Flex Pro is a flexible, self-adhesive corner bead supplied on a 25 metre roll, 85mm wide. It forms a straight, impact-resistant edge on internal and external plasterboard corners at any angle, including sloping ceilings and splayed reveals where a rigid 90° bead will not sit. Cut what you need from the roll, so there is no waste and nothing to bend in transit.

The adhesive is water-activated. Mist the back of the bead, wait about 30 seconds, press it into the corner and it grips the board straight away. No staples, no bedding coat and no waiting before you fill. Joint compound passes through the perforations to the board for a solid bond, and the bead can be finished with jointing compound after around 30 minutes.

How to fit

1. Cut to length and fold to the angle of the corner.
2. Wet the adhesive side with a spray bottle, not a sponge or cloth.
3. After about 30 seconds press the bead into the corner and smooth it down evenly.
4. Fill over the bead with jointing compound after 30 minutes, let it dry and sand.

Fit onto bare plasterboard only, not over painted or previously finished corners. Keep the room above 13°C from fitting until the compound has fully dried.
