Expanded Metal in All Patterns and Materials for Your Choice

In industrial production, there is a lot of waste. However, expanded metal solves the problem well. Because expanded metal is manufactured by slitting and stretching the metal sheet with a die creating different shaped holes in one step, which makes it more economical. Due to formed from a piece of metal, there are no welds or weak points, which make its structure more sounder than other type metals.

Raised Expanded Metal

Also called standard expanded metal or regular expanded metal is a finished product as it comes from the press after having been die cut and expanded. Each sheet that comes off the expander is in standard or regular form with the junctions at the strands and bonds forming a ridge surface.

Flattened Expanded Metal

Undergoes an additional cold rolling process, creating a smoother surface and a finished product that is about 5% lighter than raised expanded metal. It with versatility is key to a virtually limitless variety of applications, partitions, speaker grills, machine and windows.

Give You a Better Understanding of Expanded Metal

What expanded metal will be used for?

  • For protection, it with high strength used as fences, railings, guards and grills, covers.
  • For partition, used at homes, in offices and outdoors and in doors of various structures to make good use of space.
  • For decoration, used as stair and walkway railings at homes, facades, etc.
  • For screening and filtering, with accurate sizes used as screens in oil industry, sand & gravel plants and as filters in gas vent of vehicle or drilling for oil.
  • For ventilation and heat dissipation, with larger openings used as flooring in places high requirement on ventilation and heat dissipation, such as equipment rooms.

Why select expanded metal to replace other type metals?

  • Sound structure
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Non-slip surface
  • Fully customized
  • Economical
  • Aesthetic appeal

Heavy Type Expanded Metal with Higher Strength as Screen, Tread, Platform

Expanded Metal, can be processed in different opening shapes, typically as: standard rhombic shape, heavy type tortoise-shaped, flattened expanded metal, and some special shapes or designs. Heavy type hexagonal shaped expanded metal, also known as among the tortoise-shaped expanded metal, is a heavy type expanded metal, reinforced compared with the regular expanded metal products. Heavy expanded metal is made of high quality plain steel after being expanded on the automatic expanded machines. Because of the high strength of heavy type expanded metal, it is mostly used as walkways, ramps and catwalks of all types.

Heavy type expanded metal sheet can be used as fences.



Specification of heavy type expanded metal:

  • Materials: aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel.
  • Hole shapes: diamond, hexagonal, etc.
  • Surface treatment: PVC coated, galvanized, powder coated, anodized.
  • Colors: PVC coated, galvanized, powder coated, anodized.
  • SWD: 36 mm – 76 mm.
  • LWD:100 mm – 200 mm.
  • Thikness:3 mm – 8 mm.
  • Width:600mm – 2400 mm.
  • Package: wooden pallet and outer is wrapped by waterproof paper.

Features of heavy type expanded metal:

  • Durable-higher strength to weight ration and aging resistance.
  • Good corrosion resistance. It won't be hurt in rainstorm or isolation.
  • Good rigidity--premium reinforcement properties.
  • Anti-rust. With a lot of rustproof surface treatments.
  • Used as decorative mesh for building outer wall. Because weight is light enough.
  • Visibility and colorful. With simple structure and various colors.

Application:

  • Heavy type expanded metal with high strength is ideal for uses in ship making, fences, step mesh of oil tanker, heavy machinery, boilers, locomotives, ships, escalators and other working platforms.
  • It with non-slip surface is applied to flooring, grating, groove cover, conveying, side passages for conveyors and cranes, walkways, ramps and catwalks.
  • For screening, can be used for mineral sifting and in oil mines, plants.
  • It can also used as reinforcing for construction, roads, bridges, railway, road, civil building construction and water conservancy project.
  • It also can be used in outer wall decoration and chemical industry, as window screen, filter, etc.
Heavy type expanded metal with rough, raised surface can be used as platform in work high above the ground for slip resistance.
Heavy type expanded metal having high strength enough is used as stair treads.
