Flattened expanded metal is made by passing standard expanded metal through a cold rolled reducing mill, leaving a flat and smooth surface that is similar to perforated metal. The rolling process makes the strands and bonds down, thus reducing the thickness of the metal sheet and stretching the pattern. Flattened expanded metal possesses many properties, making it a very versatile product suitable for applications across many industries, such as commercial, automobile and agricultural.
Flattened expanded metal sheet can be made of low carbon steel sheet, aluminum sheet and stainless steel sheet. The low carbon steel sheet will be galvanized and PVC coated to improve the corrosion and rust resistance performance. Aluminum flattened expanded metal sheet owns light wight and good corrosion resistance performance, which is economical and good condition. The stainless steel flattened expanded metal sheet is the most durable and solid type, which is corrosion, rust, acid and alkali resistance.
