Expanded Metal Technical Specifications

  • SW: Short Way Dimension of Mesh
    Distance between centers in the short way direction of the mesh.
  • LW: Long Way Dimension of Mesh
    Distance between centers in the long way direction of the mesh.
  • Strand Width:
    The width of each strand forming the diamond-shaped opening.
  • LWM: Length
    Direction of the LW diamond.
  • SWM: Width
    Direction of the SW diamond.
  • Thickness: Material Thickness
  • Overall Thickness:
    The overall thickness can be approximately 1 to 2.5 times the material thickness.
  • All thickness, strand width, and weight are subject to a tolerance of +/-5%.
  • Standard sheet sizes: 3' x 6', 4' x 8', 5' x 10' and 8' x 4', 10' x 5' (LWM x SWM)

 

Mesh Style
  • Standard / Raised type:
    Standard expanded metal, also known as raised expanded metal or 3D mesh type, is produced by slitting and stretching a metal sheet to form diamond-shaped openings.
  • Flattened type:
    Flattened expanded metal, also known as 2D type, is made by passing standard expanded metal through a rolling process to flatten the raised strands and joints.
