Products Detail
Description
Expanded metal products are the most versatile you will find for almost any industrial, commercial, interior design or architectural applications.
Expanded metal is manufactured from a single sheet of metal by expansion process. In the process, the metal sheet is sheared and stretched to form a uniform diamond-patterned mesh which results in double bonds formation where the rows of strand converge at the apex of each diamond, technically called ‘knuckles’.
Types of Expanded Metal
-
Mild Steel / Powder Coated
-
Galvanized Iron
Characteristics & Advantages
-
Filtration / Enclosure (allows free flow of light, heat, sound & air)
-
Protection (will NOT unravel when cut, unlike woven wire)
-
Reinforcement (act as formidable barrier when used in security applications)
-
Fire resistant, vermin proof and provides anti-slip surface for ramps, catwalks and stair reads.
-
High strength-to-weight ratio makes it technically applicable in many engineering and ornamental applications.
-
Anti-corrosive when hot-dipped galvanized or powder-coated.
-
Decoration (available in a variety of mesh configurations and decorative patterns)
-
Good conductor to electricity, magnetic flux and heat through jointless continuity of materials.
-
Good for electromagnetic screening and driveway heating.
