Product Description:
Expanded metal mesh is a type of material that is made from light gauge metals and foils. Due to their excellent ductile properties, these metals and foils are processed through a single operation in which they are slit and expanded into an open mesh pattern. The process results in a final product that is stronger and lighter in weight than the original base metal. In addition, it is also more rigid than the original base metal, which makes it ideal for a wide range of applications.
One of the main advantages of expanded metal mesh is its versatility. It can be used for shielding, lightning strike protection, and as a material for batteries, among other applications. For example, due to its high conductivity, it is often used in lightning strike protection systems to direct the energy of a lightning strike away from sensitive electronic equipment. Additionally, expanded metal mesh is often used in building construction and as a material for architectural features because of its aesthetic appeal and durability.
Features:
Slit and expand technology is an innovative approach that enables the creation of materials that don't go to waste. It also adds strength and rigidity to the micro expanded metal, making it an efficient manufacturing process.
The one-piece structure of micro expanded metal means that it is unlikely to unravel under normal circumstances. This makes it a cost-effective solution for various applications, including lightning strike protection, EMI/RFI shielding, and acoustic applications.
Micro expanded metal boasts excellent physical and chemical properties that make it ideal for specific applications. For example, it can be manufactured from various alloy materials, such as stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, silver, copper, brass, nickel, and other alloy materials, depending on the intended application.
Expanded metal mesh comes in a variety of 2D and 3D designs, making it a versatile material for different applications. Hexagonal, round, diamond, and square patterns are among the most popular designs.
One advantage of fine expanded metal is its open areas which can flexibly increase and decrease through specialized manufacturing methods. This flexibility makes it an appealing material for various applications.
Micro expanded metal also offers good electric conductivity, making it a suitable material for specific applications requiring this property.
Easy installation is another benefit of micro expanded metal. Users can install it with minimal expertise, making it a popular choice among both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Furthermore, micro expanded metal has a long service life, which means it can be used for extended periods with minimal maintenance requirements.
Technical Parameters:
Surface Treatment Options
There are several different options for surface treatments, depending on your requirements and preferences.
Untreated
If you don't require any specific surface treatment, leaving the surface untreated is an option.
Anodized
Anodizing can create a hard, durable surface that can also be customized in terms of color.
Powder Coated
Powder coating involves applying a dry powder to the surface, which is then cured with heat to create a durable finish.
PVDF
PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is a coating that can provide excellent resistance to weathering and corrosion.
Spray Painted
Spray painting is an option if you need a simple, low cost surface treatment.
Galvanized
Galvanization involves applying a layer of zinc to the surface to protect the underlying metal from corrosion. There are two main types:
Electric Galvanized
This method of galvanization involves applying a thin layer of zinc to the surface via electrolysis.
Hot-Dipped Galvanized
With hot-dipped galvanization, the metal is dipped into a bath of molten zinc to create a thicker layer of protection.
Applications:
There are a variety of projects that are considered decorative, such as shielding, chimney caps, animal guards, and others. These projects not only serve a functional purpose but also add aesthetic value.
Faraday cages, electronics, aerospace, composite structures, and wind energy are just a few examples of the diverse industries that utilize specialized materials and technologies. These fields require unique solutions to meet specific needs.
From floor heating and ceiling tiles to infrastructure and food services, the applications for specialized materials are vast. Batteries, glass, jewelry, and architectural screens and enclosures are just a few areas where specialized materials are frequently used.
The protection of machinery equipment and handicraft is essential in manufacturing. Specialized materials are often used to ensure that these items remain safe and undamaged during production.
Shelves, heavy machinery, work platforms, walkways, ships, and other areas may also require specialized materials and technologies to maintain safety and functionality. Thus, it's crucial to choose the right materials for a specific situation.
