Key Components

1. Clip Starter Strip

The 22 Gauge Galvanized Clip Starter Strip acts as a weep screed flashing at the base of the wall, a drip cap above windows and doors, and starting Clip attachment flange for the first row of stone.

2. Clip & Screw

20 Gauge Galvanized Clips attach easily into the back of each piece to fasten the product to the wall. The necessity of a heavy, often time-consuming mortar and wire lath application is no longer.

3. Preset Stone Veneer

All Lambris styles are cast in unique preset stone veneer pieces with a recessed groove to accept the Clip. Stepped offsets naturally break up unwanted pattern consistency while laying. Varying depths of the stone faces within shadow lines between pieces, further eliminating the appearance of a panelized product.

4. Built-In Drainage

Designed with moisture management in mind, a ¼” breathable cavity allows moisture to drain freely from behind the stone system and away from the structure. The Clip System's drainage plane meets and exceeds new national building code requirements for drainage behind stone veneer systems.
