Brass Expanded Metal Mesh & Copper Expanded Metal Mesh
Copper or brass expanded metal mesh is produced by slitting and stretching a single metal sheet to form various opening shapes. There are two styles of standard and flattened. Flattened expanded metal mesh based on standard metal mesh undergoes an additional cold rolling process, creating a smoother surface. There's no wastes in producing them. Materials can be aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel with copper or brass coating. Expanded copper or brass mesh can be used for chimney caps, crafts of art and filters. It can be used for decoration as interior and exterior wall decoration, ceilings, curtains popularly. Expanded metal sheet with high strength and sound structure can be used for step mesh of oil tanks, working platform and walking road for heavy model equipment.
Materials: Phosphor Bronze Plate, Brass Plate, Copper Plate.
Expanded Metal Patterns:
Standard Expanded: Standard diamond hole expanded metal is directly slit and stretched by punching machines without any other processing.The strand width and bond come into an angle with the plate surface. This kind of structure increase the strength and hardness of expanded metal, it also brings better anti-slipping and reinforcing performance.
Flatterned Expanded: Flattened diamond hole expanded metal is formed by flattening process based on standard expanded metal. Its strand width and bond are in the same horizontal plane with plate surface. Compared with standard expanded metal, the plate thickness will be thinner and opening will be larger.
SWD: short way of diamond.
LWD: long way of diamond.
W: strand width.
T: thickness of metal plate
Features:
Standard expanded metal mesh has non-skip surface, flattened expanded metal mesh has smooth and flat surface.
Sturdy structure.
Durability, corrosion, abrasion, acid and alkali resistance.
High utilization rate of materials, without scrap.
Permit light, air, liquid, heat, sound to pass.
High electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity.
Good ventilation, lighting, heat dissipation.
Beautiful appearance with various opening can be designed in many shapes.
The material in the production process is essentially non-destructive.
Low maintenance, easy to install.
Applications:
Copper or brass expanded metal sheet is widely used in many industries, such as:
Ventilation mesh, decorative mesh.
Protection mesh for machine, electric equipment, aquatic products breeding.
Screen for window, door, wall, ceiling, facade, roof, retail shelf, signage, partition.
Fence for highway, studio, garden, green belt, bridge, stadium.
Chimney caps and handcrafts.
Used in construction, concrete reinforcement, filtration.
Heavy expanded mesh can be used as stair for corridor, oil tank, working platform, escalator, walking road for big ship, heavy model equipment, petroleum well, mine well, boiler, automobile vehicle, footbridge.
