Expanded metal mesh is also called pulled plate wire mesh. A rigid piece of metal that has been slit and drawn into an open mesh pattern in a single operation. It is stronger, lighter in weight and more rigid than the original base metal.

Expanded metal mesh material are carbon steel plate, stainless steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, aluminum foil, lead, nickel plate, titanium, aluminum-magnesium alloy panels. Conventional mesh is formed in a diamond pattern. It has other pattern of hexagonal, round, triangle, scale-like opening.

Features and benefits of Expanded metal mesh:

1. The mesh is formed from a single piece of metal
2. The process is not wasteful of material
3. Higher strength-to-weight ratio than sheet metal
4. Anti-slip surface
5. Excludes and retains simultaneously
6. Premium reinforcement properties
7. Practical and effective screening
8. High efficient conductor
9. Super corrosion resistance

Expanded metal mesh has a wide range of uses, graceful shapes , strong processing capability. A major advantage of expanded is that the mesh is formed from a single piece of material and the process is not wasteful and therefore cost 

effective.
