Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Sheet Mesh
Stainless steel expanded metal mesh, also known as expanded metal sheet or metal diamond mesh, it is a metal sheet which is processed with punching, shearing and stretching to form a mesh-like sheet. It is uniformly slit and stretched to diamond-shaped openings (could also be hexagonal) that allow for the passing of air, water, light, heat and sound. The strands and bonds of the openings are set at different angles, which provides added strength to the metal mesh and maintains its aesthetic appearance. Since no material is lost in the whole manufacturing process, the expanded metal sheet could be your economical and cost-effective option compared to the perforated metal sheet.
As one of the leading expanded metal mesh suppliers, we provide you with trusted, durable, and versatile products. These products are available in raised expanded metal mesh, flattened expanded metal sheet, and decorative expanded metal sheet.
