Galvanized Steel Diamond Expanded Metal Lath Expanded Metal Mesh Sheet

Product Description

Our expanded metal sheet is available in many sizes, openings, and material types. We offer expanded metal materials such as aluminum, carbon steel, galvanized steel or stainless steel. This metal sheet is uniformly slit and stretched, forming diamond-shaped openings in the sheet that allow for the passage of light, air, heat, and sound. The strands and bonds of the diamonds in the sheet add strength and rigidity. Since no metal is lost in the expanding process, expanded metal is a cost-effective alternative to perforated metal.

Standard Expanded Metal
Standard expanded metal is an extremely versatile and economical product. It is offered in your choice of material, gauge, and opening size. Standard expanded metal sheets are ideal when a raised, slip-resistant surface is needed. It is available in aluminum, carbon steel, galvanized steel, or stainless steel.

Flattened Expanded Metal
Flattened expanded metal is cold rolled through a machine that flattens the metal after the expansion process. It is the best choice for when a smooth surface is desired. Our stocks flattened expanded metal in a wide variety of metal materials, thicknesses and opening sizes.

Expanded metal grating is a strong and economical product used in a variety of industrial, commercial, architectural, and drainage applications. Our expanded metal gratings are used for bridge walkways, water treatment plants, industrial plant construction, heavy duty fence and barrier construction, utility and other trailer manufacturing. It can be made into economical vertical screening, fire escapes, stair treads, mezzanines, ramps, and walkways, as well as oil and gas platforms

 
Application
 
Nowadays, expanded wire mesh is typically used for screening, ventilating, or security as a guard. The openings permit passage of light, air, heat, and sound, and the sheet is lightweight and easy to fabricate and form. Decorative patterns have the same properties and are used aesthetically. Decorative patterns may be found in applications like retail shelving, signage, partitions, ceiling tiles, and more.
