Expanded Metal Mesh

Expanded Metal Mesh: Materials, and Diamond Pattern from Slit & Stretched Sheets

Expanded metal mesh is a versatile material, manufactured by slitting or cutting and then stretching metal sheets to create a robust yet lightweight structure characterized by a distinctive diamond-shaped pattern. Widely utilized in the construction industry for its strength, durability, and excellent ventilation, it finds applications in fences, walkways, facades, and protective screens. Available in various materials like steel, aluminum, and stainless steel, different types of expanded metal mesh are tailored to specific structural and aesthetic needs, varying in thickness, diamond pattern dimensions, and finish to suit diverse requirements.
Expanded Metal

Type

  • Standard (Raised) Expanded Metal Mesh: This type has raised strands that make the surface textured and slip-resistant, making it ideal for platforms, walkways, and steel fence,barriers.
  • Flattened Expanded Metal Mesh: Made by flattening standard mesh, it has a smooth surface and is commonly used for facades, decorative designs, and screens.
  • Micro Expanded Metal Mesh: With tiny openings, this type is mainly used in filters, screens, and precise applications.
  • Heavy-duty Expanded Metal Mesh: Made from thick metal sheets, this strong type is used in heavy-duty areas like industrial floors, fences, and machinery protection.
