What is Expanded Metal Sheet?
Expanded metal sheets are produced by simultaneously cutting and stretching a carbon steel sheet to form a mesh with regularly spaced openings (typically in a diamond pattern). Because the process does not remove material (no punching, no waste), the finished product retains continuous strands and bonds, giving it structural integrity and an excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
Expanded Metal Sheet Advantages
- Expanded metal is the most practical and economical way to assure strength and safety. It features a one-piece construction that will not unravel when cut, and its anti-slip properties make it ideal for use on plant or pedestrian walkways, bridges, billboard platforms, and stair treads. Additional benefits include:
- Increased strength-to-weight ratio
- Slip-resistant for increased safety
- Enhanced visibility, ventilation, and drainage
- Easily workable and fabricated
- Cost-efficient
