Heavy-Duty Expanded Metal Catwalk/Expanded Platform Mesh

Product Description

Heavy-Duty Expanded Metal Catwalk / Expanded Platform Mesh are economical solutions for industrial walking surfaces. Design engineers view it as an excellent choice when building maintenance and safety are important design criteria.
Produced by slitting and stretching plate into an open diamond mesh; expanded metal grating permits a strong, durable, light weight walking surface. It has a high percentage of open area which allows excellent passage of heat and light to surfaces above and below.
The angular position of the strand and the bond makes the expanded metal grating stronger in deflection than steel plate in its original form. The junctions of the strand and bond form a ridged surface for improved traction and slip resistance.
Being made from one continuous piece of metal it yields a greater strength to weight ratio. The surface is naturally slip resistant and for that is used primarily for pedestrian traffic.

Advantages

1.Light and cost efficient
It is a great advantage that expanded metal is not assembled nor welded, but always made in one piece.

No metal is lost in the expanding process, hence expanded metal is a cost effective alternative to other products.

Because there are no strained joints or welds, expanded metal is stronger and is ideal for forming, pressing and cutting.

Due to the expansion the weight per metre is less than that of the original sheet.

Due to the expansion a much bigger open area is possible compared to other similar products.

Applications

Expanded metal mesh can be widely used in the protection of machinery equipment, handicraft manufacturing, shelves, heavy machinery, work platforms, walkways, ships as well as other areas.
