As a professional manufacturer based in Hengshui, Hebei, Anping Xinye Metal Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd. supplies heavy duty expanded metal grating in 5.0mm thickness with an 80mm x 120mm opening, specifically designed for machinery guarding and industrial protective screens. Our factory area covers 5,000-10,000 square meters, and our team of 51-100 people is experienced in metal mesh production, which helps us keep a steady production flow for standard and custom guarding panels. This product is manufactured by slitting and stretching a solid metal sheet into a one-piece mesh structure, so it does not rely on welding, woven wires or separate fasteners. The result is a rigid grating panel that can be cut, welded, bolted or framed for different machine guard configurations.
The 5.0mm base thickness provides a strong strand section, while the 80mm x 120mm opening gives the panel a large open area for visibility and ventilation. This combination makes the panel useful for OEM machinery guards, removable machine covers, safety barriers, equipment enclosures and partition screens. Because the mesh is expanded from a single sheet, it has no loose strands or weak connection points under normal guarding conditions. Additional benefits include lower weight than solid sheet metal, simpler handling during installation, and the option to flatten the expanded mesh for applications that require a smoother surface.
For standard heavy duty use, the grating can be manufactured in carbon steel. If the guarding area may be exposed to moisture or chemicals, stainless steel is available. Aluminum can also be used when weight reduction is important. Surface treatment choices include plain, galvanized, powder coated or painted; the final selection depends on the working environment and appearance requirements. If you have a preferred steel grade or coating, our factory can confirm the production detail before order confirmation.
- One-piece expanded metal construction: The grating is slit and stretched from a solid plate, eliminating the need for wire joints, welding points or woven overlaps.
- Heavy 5.0mm plate thickness: The thick base material gives the mesh a rigid, impact-resistant structure for protective panels and machine guards.
- 80mm x 120mm opening: The opening pattern provides a balance between broad coverage and open area, allowing airflow, heat dissipation and visibility.
- Customizable panel dimensions: We can supply full sheets, cut-to-size blank panels, or finished guard panels with prepared edges and mounting holes.
- Flexible materials and finishes: Carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum are available, with plain, galvanized, powder coated or painted finishes.
- Easy installation: Panels can be cut, welded, bolted, clamped or fixed to frames using standard fabrication equipment.
- Suitable for heavy duty surroundings: The product is intended for machine guarding, barrier fencing, storage cages, screen dividers and similar industrial uses.
- Space saving and low maintenance: Expanded metal does not collect water in the same way as perforated sheet, and the one-piece structure simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

Machinery guarding requires a material that is strong enough to resist impact, but still open enough to allow cooling and visual inspection. The 5.0mm thickness of this expanded metal grating provides a rigid barrier without making the panel too heavy for a standard mounting frame. The 80mm x 120mm opening is designed for large-equipment guards and industrial barriers, where full visibility is not necessary but physical separation is required.
Compared with solid sheet metal, expanded metal grating offers a useful strength-to-weight balance. The angled strands create a mechanically locked structure, which gives the panel good dimensional stability. If a guard needs to be removed for maintenance, the panel can be bolted or clamped so that it can be easily detached. For permanent installations, the grating can be welded directly to a machine frame.
- Machinery guarding and moving part protection
- Safety screens and separation barriers
- Removable machine covers and enclosures
- Fence panels and storage cage partitions
- Platform decking and walkway grating when fabricated with load-bearing supports
We understand that machine guards are often required in non-standard sizes. Our production process allows us to deliver expanded metal grating in custom widths and lengths, with matched opening orientation, edge style and surface finish. If you are working from a drawing, please include the panel dimensions, mounting hole positions, edge bending details and material choice. We will confirm the available production options before delivery.
Every production batch is checked for opening consistency, surface condition and dimensional tolerance, with extra attention to burrs and sharp edges when the panels are intended for operator-contacted guarding areas. As an export-oriented manufacturer, we pack the grating in steel bundles, wooden pallets or crates to prevent deformation during long-distance shipping. We can arrange delivery from Tianjin, Qingdao and Shanghai ports according to the order and destination.
Anping Xinye Metal Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd. has been serving industrial mesh and grating customers since 2020, with a 5,000-10,000 square meter factory and a team of 51-100 employees. Our products have been shipped to North America, South America, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East and other regions. Please send us your guard panel details and quantity requirements; we will provide a production drawing, material recommendation and quotation.
-
Can this expanded metal grating be supplied in stainless steel?
Yes, stainless steel is an available material option. We recommend it for areas with high humidity, chemicals or frequent washdown. -
Can I order panels cut to a certain length and width?
Yes. We can supply full sheets or cut to your required panel dimensions. Please provide the exact width and length, and we will confirm the most suitable cutting and packing method. -
Is the surface smooth enough for walking?
Standard raised expanded metal grating is more suitable for barriers and machine guards. If the panel will be used as a walkway or stepping surface, flattened expanded metal or an additional support frame should be considered. -
Do you offer galvanized or powder coated finishes?
Yes, galvanized, powder coated and painted finishes are available. The right choice depends on the environment where the grating will be installed. -
Can the grating be welded to a steel frame?
Yes, carbon steel expanded metal can be welded to a frame. Stainless steel and aluminum can also be welded using appropriate procedures and filler materials. -
What are the packing and shipping options?
Panels are usually packed in steel bundles or wooden pallets with edge protection. We can ship from Tianjin, Qingdao or Shanghai, depending on your location and order size. -
How should I provide my order details?
Please provide material, thickness, opening size, panel dimensions, surface treatment, edge details and quantity. Our team will prepare a production drawing for you. -
Can a sample be provided before bulk order?
Yes, sample requests can be discussed. After confirming the material and size, we will prepare a small sample for your review before mass production.
