Expanded Stainless Steel Mesh Expanded Metal Mesh
Expanded Stainless Steel Mesh/Expanded Metal Mesh
Expanded Metal Sheet is produced from metal sheet or rolled via stamping and expanding, which forms a wide array of diamond shaped openings with uniform sizes.
Compared with the traditional flat metal sheet, expanded metal mesh has more notable advantages for its versatile applications.
Owing to the expanding process, the metal sheet can be expanded up to 8 times its original width, losing up to 75 % its weight per meter, and becomes harder.So it is lighter, less expensive than a single metal sheet.
Expanded metal mesh types includes raised expanded steel mesh (also called standard or regular expanded metal) and flat expanded metal.
Raised expanded metal mesh has diamond openings with slightly raised surface. Flattened expanded metal mesh is manufactured by passing the standard expanded sheet through a cold roll reducing mill, forming diamond openings with flat surface.
Expanded metal specification

Some of our customers require expanded stainless steel mesh to make transformer cubicles , dry type transformer enclosures or Switchgear cabinets. Expanded metal mesh can allow hot air to go out and keep small animals (like rat, snakes, etc) out.
