Flattened Expanded Metal Sheet 48x96

Raised Expanded Metal Lath. 

Raised Expanded Metal is a finished product as it comes from the press. 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.

Flattened Expanded Metal Lath

Flattened Expanded Metal has been cold rolled after the expansion process to provide a smooth, flat, and level sheet.The flattening process reduces the original gauge of the base metal and the strand width increases slightly

Expanded Metal Platform.

This style of Raised Expanded Metal is produced from heavier gauge carbon steel plates. Expanded Metal Grating is ideal for pedestrian traffic
and applications requiring heavier loads or larger openings than conventional expanded metal options.

Expanded Metal Walkway Grating

The expanded metal gratings are manufactured continuously from sheet or plate and contain no joints or welds, leaving a smooth look. Expanded metal gratings emerge from the expanding process as a single piece of material and are structurally stronger than the original material from which they are made.

The angular position of the strand and the bond makes the expanded metal grating stronger in deflection than steel plate material in original form.This product is available only in the regular or standard type and is not flattened.
Typical applications include long length or expanded metal catwalk grating - usually in 10 ft. lengths by 2 or 3 ft. widths. It is also ideal for flooring, platforms and stair treads, where principal use is for light storage and foot traffic.

Expanded Metal Grating can be made from carbon steel, stainless steel or aluminum in styles from 1/4" to 1 1/2".
Metal grating is often used in the construction of bridge decks, walkways, catwalks and drain covers.
