Expanded Metal
Expanded metal is produced by slitting and expanding metal sheet into a rigid mesh with a diamond-shaped pattern. It is used in applications where strength, visibility, airflow or grip may be required, depending on the design and material selected.
Industrial Mesh Supplies supplies expanded metal for uses such as conveyor walkways, braai grids, security, architectural fencing, security fencing, and window and door security. To help us quote accurately, buyers should provide the longway and shortway of mesh, plate thickness, strand width, material type, and whether raised or flattened expanded metal is required.
