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.

Expanded metal gratings are the ideal material for industrial walkways. Expanded metal gratings combine light weight with unusual strength because each diamond is designed like a truss; every strand works to distribute the load in all directions to the supporting structure. Although Expanded Metal Grating is used extensively for walkways it also has many other uses.

Metal stair treads are cut from our expanded metal lines which gives them unusual strength and light in weight. Our stair treads feature a slip resistant surface while distributing the load uniformly. They are ideal for an industrial slippery stair application and are economical to purchase.

Our metal walkways are made from one of our strong yet lightweight expanded metal lines while being economical to purchase. These walkways distribute the load stress in all directions to your supporting structure. Metal walkways are ideal for slippery platforms and stairways where you require a non-skid surface.

A new series of expanded meshes designed to replicate the circular patterns of perforated metals. Designs offer significant cost advantages and are interchangeable with perforated equivalents in multiple applications, offering comparable strength, open area, acoustic and filtration properties.

U-edging is a u-shaped strip that is attached to the edge of the expanded metal sheet by a weld or press-fit. This makes the edges more attractive and safe at the same time. U-edging is easy to install and is available ten and twelve foot lengths.
• U-Edgings available From Stock In 10 and 12 Foot Lengths
• U-Edgings available In Any Custom Lengths
• Carbon, Aluminum, Stainless, Copper and More U-Edging

Products are designed for a range of applications from perimeter demarcation to the highest level of security.

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.

Decorative mesh, like standard expanded metal, is a self-contained piece of metal which won't unravel, thus retaining its shape after years of constant use. The same properties making standard expanded metals so applicable to today's needs - lightweight, strength, rigidity, free passage of air, light, heat, sound and adaptability to finishing processes are also present in decorative expanded metals plus functional attractiveness. Functional because the decorative mesh pattern provides control of mass by regulating flow through direction and volume, yet attractive; giving the sales appeal sought by the industrial designer.

Micro Expanded metal, suitable for utilization in filters as well as for other applications, can be considered as a particular type of the expanded metal with a small size mesh, meaning small openings.

Ribbon Mesh is an architectural expanded metal with solid bands of ribbon-like contoured shapes built into a metal sheet. Ribbon Mesh offers Architects and Designers a new expanded metal product that has ideal functionality and attractive aesthetic solutions to technical building issues.
