Huansi Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd. specializes in producing and exporting high-quality expanded metal. Our expanded metal are made by precisely slitting and stretching metal sheets into durable, lightweight meshes. This versatile expanded metal is widely used in various industries for its excellent wear resistance and anti-slip properties, making it ideal for walkways, barriers, and gratings. It is especially favored in both industrial and architectural applications where safety and durability are crucial.
Expanded metal is produced in an expanding press where the basic metal is simultaneously slit and cold-formed, expanding the slits into various shapes like squares, diamonds, hexagons, and other decorative patterns. This process involves shearing a metal plate so that it stretches, creating diamond-shaped voids surrounded by interlinked bars of metal. The most common manufacturing method involves both slitting and stretching the metal in a single motion.
