Expanded metal, also known as stretch metal or expanded mesh, is a highly versatile metal product widely used across industrial, commercial, and residential applications. It is manufactured by slitting and stretching a solid metal sheet in a single process, forming uniform diamond-shaped openings.
This process creates a rigid, non-ravel structure with no material waste, resulting in a higher strength-to-weight ratio compared to solid sheet metal.
Expanded metal is available in four main types: standard expanded metal, flattened expanded metal, decorative expanded metal, and expanded metal grating, offering flexible solutions for structural and architectural needs.
Material：mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum; precious materials such as brass, copper, titanium and platinum are also available.
Surface treatment：galvanizing, painting, powder coating, polishing, anodizing, etc.
Hole patterns：diamond, hexagonal and customized patterns against order.
Sheet width：2' – 8'.
Sheet length：2' – 10'.
