Product Details

Flattened Expanded Metal/galvanized expanded metal /aluminum expanded metal mesh

Expanded Metal is made from sheets of solid metals that all are slit and stretched with each stroke of the upper die, forming a raised diamond pattern.

This pattern is called regular or standard. This pattern varies by the gauge and type of material and the size of the diamond.The sheets can also be flattened by rollers for an optional style by pasing them through a cold, roll reducing mill.
Expanded metal also can be manufactured in heavy gauges for applications such as walkways, ramps, and catwalks of all types. Frequently, the heavier gratings and catwalks are used in industrial plants for flooring.
Due to the flexibility in materials and the sizes that it can be manufactured, expanded metal has a large application in filtration purposes. Thicker sizes with apertures above ½" also has certain general purpose applications like partitioning and covering for security.
Manufactured in Mild Steel (M.S.), Galvanised Iron (G.I.), Stainless Steel 304, 316 (S.S.) Aluminum ( AL.) from 0.5 mm opening to 50 mm opening in all possible thickness.

Mild Steel

Made from low carbon steel conforming to JIS G3131/SPHC. For non-corrosion, it can be hot dipped galvanized to BS EN ISO 1461 or Powder Coated

Aluminium

Commercial Grade AA 1100 (mill finish). Other Grade of aluminium are also possible upon request.

Stainless Steel

Usually produced from Grade SS 304 and SS 316

Product Benefits

• Because there are no welds or joints, it operates as a structural member that distributes loads evenly over a wider area.

• Lighter in weight yet stronger than steel sheet, thus economical applications for walkway platform, security fencing, machine guard, racking, etc

• The open mesh design allows passage of light, air and sound; used for screen mesh, ventilation and security screen in many industrial buildings.

• The anti-skid surface provides safety and grip suitable for strait reads, rugged maintenance floor, gratings and catwalks for factories, shipyards and oil refineries.

• Anti-corrosive when hot-dipped galvanized or powder-coated

Sheet Sizes & Tolerance

Expanded metal comes in standard sheet size of 2440mm(SWM) x 1220mm (LWM), other sheet sizes are available upon request. Some light meshes are supplied in roll for easy handling and storage. All sheet and roll sizes are subject to tolerance
