Expanded Metal Mesh Catalogue

Metal sheets or coils are fed through the machine to be slit and stretched simultaneously.

Expanded metal mesh catalogue.

Expanded copper mesh with elegant looking and corrosion and wear resistance is broadly used for guarding of machines dividers boilers crafts of art filters etc. 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. The result is a mesh product with no joins or welds formed from a process that produces minimum waste. Oversize panels can be fabricated by butt welding the mesh together or by overlapping.

B a variation in weight per square ft. This can only be along the lwm axis all dimensions would be required as per example shown including the specifications of the direction of the short way mesh swm long way mesh lwm and type and finish of expanded metal required. Flattened expanded metal a the minimum thickness is absolute not subject to minus variation. As a service to our valued customers mcnichols provides catalogs for download.

The styles listed may vary by weight and dimension based on the buyers specifications. Use them to create safety guards for equipment and machinery. They can be formed and welded. The pattern varies by the gauge and type of material and the size of the diamond the sheets of expanded metal can also be flattened by rollers for.

We update our catalogs at least annually to. This pattern is called regular or standard. Steel is lightly oiled. Micron aluminum expanded metal micron aluminum expanded metal with excellent strength to weight ratio is used as filters or screens speakers guards electrochemical conductor in.

On request some meshes can be processed from pre galvanized steel aluminium copper and brass. Expanded metal mesh is manufactured with the use of an expanding machine. Expanded and flattened square mesh mesh dimensions 1 1 the mesh patterns highlighted in the table are the most popular and are competitively priced compared to welded wire mesh and perforated metal. Raised panels have strands that overlap to provide a skid resistant surface.

These catalogs contain extensive technical guidance and ordering information about mcnichols perforated and expanded metals wire mesh and designer metals as well as bar grating fiberglass grating plank grating and flooring products. Expanded metal is a form of metal made by shearing metal plates and does not have any welds or joints that allows it to distribute loads evenly over a wide area. C a tolerance of 10 is permitted in dimensions center to center.

Typical applications include walkways industrial applications caging machine and equipment enclosures security fencing applications perimeter fancing artists for 3d sculptures etc. Light in weight yet stronger than steel sheet anti skid surface open mesh design makes it an ideal product as a walkway platform security fencing catwalks etc. However they are more difficult to cut than perforated panels.
