Hot Dipped Galvanized Heavy Duty Expanded metal Mesh For Heavy Machinery

Our expanded metal is a very versatile and economical product made from a high-quality sheet of aluminum, copper, carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel and the other alloys that is uniformly slit and stretched, forming diamond-shaped openings in the sheet that allow for the passage of light, air, heat and sound. The strands and bonds of the diamonds add strength and rigidity. Because no metal is lost in the expanding process, expanded metal is a cost effective alternative to perforated metal.

They are classified into :

Standard Expanded metal is an extremely versatile and economical metal product and is offered in your choice of material, gauge and opening size. This is the best choice when a raised, slip resistant surface that is more rigid is needed.

Flattened Expanded metal has been cold rolled through a machine that flattens the metal after the expansion process. This is the perfect choice when a smooth surface is desired.

Hexagonal Expanded metal The hexagonal openings most often apply to heavy expanded metal, as they offer much stronger properties than the traditional diamond pattern.

Square Expanded metal is an expanded metal that has been stretched more than normally to create a square shaped opening pattern. The square openings permit the passage of light, heat, air, liquid and sound while providing a secure, protective barrier.

Micro Expanded metal is suitable for use in filters as well as several other applications. It features small openings in a lighter gauge sheet of metal and is available in standard, flattened, hexagonal and square patterns.

Custom Fabricated Expanded metal is available in various patterns and can be custom fabricated to unique shapes and sizes such as circle, rectangle and oblong.

Finish: As same as the wire cloth, the common finish option can be galvanizing, chrome plating, copper plating, PVC dipping and powder coating in different colors.
