Gravity Cavity™ rainscreen drainage plane (drainage mat) is the economy alternative to our Sure Cavity® drainage plane (drainage mat) product.  It works because it maintains a separation between the materials used for the veneer and the structural back-up wall to drain incidental moisture and dry out the building enclosure.  Gravity Cavity™ drains and dries better than mesh-based drainage matrix products because its 1/8" deep channels enable moisture that enters the building envelope to travel quickly straight down and out the bottom of the wall, and it won't compress behind siding.

Features & Benefits

  • True channels conduct moisture to the bottom of walls faster than other rainscreen drainage mat products

  • High impact polystyrene ensures durability and prevents compression, waviness, and nail drive-through experienced with fiber-based mesh products

  • Saves installation time (half the time of furring strips and backer board)

  • 96% pre-consumer recycled content

  • The adhered fabric blocks mortar or stucco from filling the drainage channels and acts as a bug screen at the bottom
