Product Description

Expanded metal is an intermediate raw material that allows light and air to flow freely through it and that has more rigidity than the sheet from which it was produced.

It is formed in an expanded metal press and produced from any malleable metal sheet product. The plate, sheet, or coil is simultaneously slit and stretched into diamond-shaped openings. These openings are of uniform size and regularity.

Styles of Expanded Metal

Regular (standard or raised) – all expanded metal is produced in regular form off the expanders. The strands and bonds are set at a uniform angle to the plane of the sheet. This gives added strength and rigidity, as well as a skid resistant surface.

Flattened – is manufactured by processing regular expanded metal in a rolling mill. The rolling process reduces the thickness of the original base metal.

Design Designations

Strands – The sides of the expanded metal design 

Strand Thickness – Thickness of the base material from which the sheet was produced. 

Strand Width – Amount of metal fed under dies to produce one strand

Strand Thickness and Width – Can be varied to create different openings.

The width of the strand should equal or exceed the thickness of the base metal.

SWD – Nominal dimension, Short Way of Diamond 

LWD – Nominal dimension, Long Way of Diamond 

Design Size – Actual dimension SWD and LWD.

Measured from a point to a corresponding point on the adjacent diamond.

SWO – Short Way of Opening 

LWO – Long Way of Opening 

Bond – Where two strands intersect
