Expanded Metal is an extraordinarily versatile material - one with thousands of uses. It comes in four basic types, and it has four primary areas of application.
Basic types are raised (or standard), flattened and architectural (or decorative) meshes. The major areas of use are for enclosure, protection, support and decoration.
Expanded metal products are produced from solid sheets or plates of carbon, galvanized and stainless steel, as well as aluminum and a variety of alloys of copper, nickel, silver, titanium and other metals.

Flattened expanded metals : Manufactured by passing the standard expanded metal through a cold roll reducing mill parallel to the LWD. By flattening the sheet, the bonds and strands are turned down to produce a smooth and flat surface, reducing the overall thickness and elongating the diamond pattern (LWD). Cross roll flattening is done by passing the expanded metal sheet through a cold roll reducing mill parallel to the SWD. The result is the same except the diamond pattern SWD is elongated.
