Bullnose Kerfed Bead
Bullnose Kerfed Beads are designed with a leg that can be inserted
into the channel of many pre-formed door and window jambs to create
an attractive rounded encasement (as shown in FigureA).
New & Improved Design
Trim-Tex's
Bullnose Kerfed Bead design has the same
dimensions as the old Bullnose Kerfed Bead, but now has a new look.
The extra bump has been
to allow for an easier finish and a
much smoother appearance. The new design also helps conceal
imperfections in the framing caused by the 2 x 4 wall not installed plum
with the door jam.
