Technical Data
We produce for you expanded metal from the following materials:
- steel sheet, uncoated, galvanized or electro-galvanized
- stainless steel, acid and heat resistant steels
- aluminium
- copper, brass, titanium, niobium, etc.
We supply expanded metal in the following forms:
- rolled up sheet or as plate
- cut with tolerances according to your specification
- with closed mesh at both ends
- in flat-rolled design
- with subsequent powder-coating
- with subsequent electro or hot-dip galvanizing
- with vent holes or openings for lamps
- with bends
Dimensions and calculations
We produce expanded metal up to a width of 2500 mm, depending on the mesh size. The length is variable. Material thickness between 0.1 mm and 3 mm, Aluminium up to 5 mm

Example for orderinng
30 x 12 x 1,5 x 1
| 30 | = Maß L |
= Mesh lenght |
| 12 | = Maß W |
= Mesh width |
| 1,5 | = Maß B |
= Strand width |
| 1 | = Maß A |
= Strand thickness |
|
W, B and A are variable |
