Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the difference between flattened and standard expanded metal?
A: Flattened expanded metal is passed through a cold rolling mill after expanding to create a smooth, even surface. Standard expanded metal retains its diamond-shaped texture with raised edges, which can be sharp. Flattened is preferred for applications requiring a flat surface, such as walkways or decorative panels. -
Q: Can this product be used outdoors?
A: Yes, stainless steel (especially Grade 304 or 316) offers excellent resistance to weather and corrosion. For coastal or highly corrosive environments, we recommend Grade 316. -
Q: What sizes are available?
A: Standard sheets are 4' x 8' (1220 x 2440 mm). Custom sizes are available upon request. Please provide your desired dimensions for a quote. -
Q: Is this product suitable for food processing equipment?
A: Yes, stainless steel expanded metal is often used in food processing for screens, guards, and conveyor covers because it is non-reactive and easy to clean. -
Q: How do I cut or shape the sheet?
A: The sheet can be cut with a grinder, plasma cutter, or shears. For precise shapes, we can provide custom-cut pieces as per your specifications. -
Q: What is the lead time for orders?
A: For standard sizes, we typically ship within 7-10 days after order confirmation. Custom orders may take 15-20 days depending on complexity. -
Q: Do you offer samples?
A: Yes, we provide small samples (e.g., 200mm x 200mm) for evaluation. Please contact our sales team to arrange a sample shipment.
