Expanded metal mesh catalogue.
Expanded metal mesh is manufactured with the use of an expanding machine.
Flattened expanded metal a the minimum thickness is absolute not subject to minus variation.
Expanded metals are made from sheets of solid metals that are slit and stretched with each stroke of the upper die thus forming a raised diamond pattern.
All meshes are expanded from carbon steel.
The styles listed may vary by weight and dimension based on the buyers specifications.
