Regular expanded metal, also called standard expanded metal or raised expanded metal, is a finished product as it comes from the press after having been die cut and expanded. Each sheet that comes off the expander is in standard or regular form with the junctions at the strands and bonds forming a ridge surface.
Typical applications include safety guards on various pieces of equipment or machinery. The strands and bonds form a sharp angle to the original plane of the solid sheet. Expanded metal is produced in regular form directly from the expanders.
The strands and bonds are set at a uniform angle to the plane of the sheet. This gives added strength and rigidity, as well as a skid resistant surface.
Regular expanded metal is cut to fit easily and is suitable for a wide range of industrial, architectural and protective applications.
Regular expanded metal combines a raised ridge surface with strength, rigidity, skid resistance and practical installation for a wide range of applications.
Lightweight construction with high strength and a strong structure for demanding applications.
Various colors and hole shapes provide a graceful appearance for functional and architectural use.
Corrosion resistance helps provide a long working life in suitable applications.
The uniform angle of the strands and bonds provides a skid resistant raised surface.
Regular expanded metal can be cut to fit easily for different installation requirements.
Its practical construction supports easy installation and low-maintenance applications.
