    Product >Standard Expanded Metal

Expanded Metal products are produced from solid sheets or plates of carbon, galvanized and stainless steel, as well as aluminum and a variety of alloys of copper, nickel, silver, titanium and other metals. Because expanded metal is made from a solid sheet of metal, it can never unravel. The metal strands forming the open diamonds permit light, heat, air, liquids and sound to pass through yet present a virtually un-penetrable barrier to intruders. Expanded Metal is an extraordinary versatile material one with thousands of uses.

The Low Cost of Expanded Metals
In the expanding process, the sheet or plate is simultaneously slit and stretched expanding the slits into diamond-shaped holes of uniform size and shape. No metal is lost in the expanding process. Expanded Metal is a great low cost alternative for perforated metal.
