Flattened expanded metal is metal that has been cold flattened, leaving a smooth, flat surface with diamond shaped openings. During this process, the length of the sheet is elongated, usually by about five percent. After the expanded metal has been flattened, the expanded sheet is then sent through a leveler to maintain its flatness, and compared with the flattened steel mesh, the mesh becomes thinner and softer, the stem width becomes larger, and the mesh increases. Generally, flattened expanded steel mesh is often used when there are regulations on the damage and surface of the expanded steel mesh.
As a leading expanded metal supplier, ANLIDA provides durable, economical, and versatile expanded metal. This versatile product is well suited for machine guarding, security or equipment enclosures, and other applications. This product is available in many material options, such as carbon steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, and stainless steel.
The steel mesh sheet that is rolled flat after punching and drawing has a flat and smooth surface, and the roughness of the steel mesh sheet will generally be reduced after flattening.
