Expanded Metal Machine

Expanded metal is a sheet of metal fabricated with a regular pattern of diamond-shaped openings. These openings reduce the weight and cost of the sheet and provide ventilation, making it a versatile solution for many applications.The term “standard expanded metal” refers to the metal as it comes out of the expanding machine. On the other hand, flattened expanded metal is what happens when standard expanded metal is put through a cold rolling steel mill to flatten the expanded stainless steel mesh.The term “standard expanded metal” refers to the metal as it comes out of the expanding machine.

Because expanded metal is made from a solid sheet of metal, and it is not woven or welded - it can never unravel.
