L & R Weep Screed™

L & R Weep Screed^TM is the only weep screed on the market that actually weeps.   The literature for most weep screeds actually states that the holes at the bottom are actually for the attachment of mortar, not weeping!  The L & R Weep Screed^TM is the only weep screed specifically designed to accommodate the full depth of the rainscreen drainage plane system and weep through the large slots along the bottom edge. Design for drainage with the first rainscreen-compatible weep screed from MTI.

Features/Benefits
