Types of Expanded Metal
SXM (Standard Expanded Metal)
It is a product produced by the press after die cutting. Strands form sharp angles. SXM provides maximum elasticity for different applications.
FXM (Flattened Expanded Metal)
It is an expanded metal produced using cold-rolled processes. FXM has a smooth and flat surface. This type of expanded metal is suitable for uses that require agility.
Expanded Metal Grating
It is an expanded metal that is designed for heavy-duty applications. Expanded metal grating is an affordable alternative to traditional gratings.
Unique Treatments for Expanded Metals
Mill Finish: materials are cleansed with a solvent bath or acid and then rinsed with water.
Hot Dip Galvanizing: the metal is coated with zinc for a more robust surface.
Electro-galvanized: zinc finish is applied to metal.
Deburring: smoothens edges and removes burrs.
Leveling: a process that leveled the sheet without ruining the bonds.
FAQ on Expanded Metal
How do you make expanded metal?
We processed metal into expanding machine. This process turns coils and sheets into expanded metal.
Why do we have to consider the percentage of the open area for expanded metal?
The area’s percentage affects the level of space for water or air passage through expanded metal. It is important information for choosing the right material and designs.
What distinguishes expanded metal from perforated metal?
Perforated metal also came from steel sheets like expanded metal. Although, the technician does not use slicing and stretching processes for perforated metal. Expanded metal is more commonly used than perforated metal.
