Expanded metal, is one of the main building materials in the construction field. The raw material of the product is cut and expanded with the help of special equipment. In this way, sheet metal mesh products emerge. Stencil mesh is a strong material with low maintenance costs. Flexible and formable. Especially the use of metal mesh in facade and space design shows that these products are reliable.

Due to its secure construction, it is durable and highly impact resistant. Provides sound insulation. In addition, it has a one-piece design that requires no welding or additions and provides effective durability. Expanded metal mesh is easy to assemble at weight points because of its light dimensions.

Durability

Durability is an important term in the use of expanded metal mesh. This is especially true in construction, shipping, heavy industry and tool making. Because these areas are very important to us. Metal alloys are usually stronger than pure metals. Due to their flexible structure, products can be expanded in size to a certain extent. This makes the products more economically advantageous.

Stencil mesh can be made of different materials, such as steel, aluminum, galvanized, copper. The pattern and eye range size can be preferably selected according to the requirements and needs. It is easy to rust and strong enough to last for many years. Sheet metal is designed by processing rolled sheets in the hot state with a press and its weight will vary depending on different factors to be considered. It depends on the area to be used.

 

Expanded metal counterweights

Expanded metal weights are considered according to certain criteria. The weight of these metals is measured by a calculator. The determined weight is very important for the strength of the product. If the weight per square meter is not high, it is designed to create a more reliable use according to the quality.

As a sheet metal mesh company, we meet you with many types of products. When you visit our website, you will have the opportunity to view our wide range of products that feature durable, high quality, cost effective mild steel, sharp edge, hot rolled metal.

Some terms used in the manufacture of expanded metal mesh

Sheet metal, especially ferrous materials. It is achieved by passing a thick sheet through a roll, i.e. by rolling. After the first hot rolling, cold rolling is performed to achieve a smooth surface.

Galvanized wire mesh is a kind of wire mesh with a zinc-plated surface. Galvanizing is a commonly used cost-effective method of corrosion protection. Stainless steel is a preferred steel due to its rust resistance. This steel contains a certain percentage of chromium, so it can be called stainless steel.

Expanded metal mesh is widely used in industrial structures, elevator protection, food industry, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, cement plants, dams, power plants, ship and yacht construction, social facilities and various decorative works.

Since ancient times, people have used stones or shrubs to build barriers to protect vegetable and fruit gardens and animals, and to protect their borders. These are the ancestors of the current wire mesh. Over and above the wire mesh used for security purposes today, it has begun to become more elegant.

We also provide perforated metal mesh. It has a very wide range of uses, although it is commonly used in construction today. The greatest advantage of perforated metal mesh is that they are economical and durable.
