Description: Expanded Metal mesh is made by slitting and stretching metal sheets to create diamond
shaped openings. This practical and versatile product line forms
screens, window security panels, machine guards and more.
Decorative Expanded items are popular in shelving, signage and
ceiling tile applications. Expanded Metal is supplied in a Standard (Raised) diamond pattern or a Flattened
variety, and materials include Aluminium, Carbon Steel, Galvanized
Steel and Stainless Steel. - Materials: Stainless steel 201,304,304L,316,316L

Stainless steel expanded mesh is available in a variety of surface, standard (raised) and
flattened (smooth) surface according to the applications and
projects requirements. Expanded Metal Mesh Terms Here is a brief list of stainless steel expanded metal terms that
you need to know: - Strands. This is the term for the solid metal portions of the
expanded metal grating. In the diagram at the top of the article,
the strands are 0.107" wide.
- Bonds. This is the term for intersections of strands.
- Short Way of Design (SWD). The distance between the centers of bond
strands in the mesh when measured along the short diamond diagonal.
To illustrate this, in a diamond pattern shape like “<>,” the
SWD would be measured from top to bottom. In the diagram above, the
SWD would be approximately 0.372" (0.265" SWO plus 0.107" of strand
thickness).
- Long Way of Design (LWD). The distance between the centers of bond
strands in the mesh when measured along the long diamond diagonal.
In a diamond pattern shape “<>,” LWD would be measured from
right to left. In the diagram above, the LWD would be approximately
1.107" (1" LWO plus 0.107" of strand thickness).
- Short Way of Opening (SWO). The distance between the inside edges
between bonds when measured across the short diamond diagonal. The
difference from SWD is that SWO measures open space, while SWD
measures the space from the center of one bond strand to the next.
In the diagram above, the SWO would be 0.265".
- Long Way of Opening (LWO). The distance between the inside edges
between bond strands when measured across the long diamond
diagonal. Like with SWO, the difference between LWO and LWD is that
LWO measures open space only, while LWD measures to the center of a
bond strand. In the diagram above, the LWO would be 1".
- Strand Thickness. A measure of the thickness of a strand of
expanded metal.
- Strand Width. How wide a strand of expanded metal is
Application: Stainless steel expanded metal has a widely applications in
architectural,commercial,industrial and decoration with the higher
acid and alkali-resistance requirements.Such as security,equipment
guards, flooring, walkways,decoration,strainer,filter,etc.
