Galvanized Expanded Metal Grating 2.0mm Thickness 15mm Strand Width Heavy Duty for Walkway
Product Spotlights
Anping Xinye Metal Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd is a professional manufacturer based in Hengshui, Hebei, China. Established in 2020, we operate a 5,000-10,000 square meter factory with 51-100 skilled employees. Our heavy-duty galvanized expanded metal grating, featuring 2.0mm thickness and 15mm strand width, is designed to deliver exceptional strength, safety, and durability for walkway applications. This product represents our commitment to quality manufacturing and practical industrial solutions.
Product Overview
Expanded metal grating is produced by simultaneously cutting and stretching a solid steel sheet, creating a uniform diamond-shaped mesh with integral strands. Unlike welded or woven wire mesh, expanded metal has no separate joints or welds, making it remarkably strong and resistant to separation under heavy loads. The hot-dip galvanized coating protects against corrosion, rust, and harsh weather conditions, ensuring a long service life even in outdoor or humid environments. With a strand width of 15mm and a thickness of 2.0mm, this grating offers excellent load-bearing capacity while maintaining a lightweight structure that is easy to handle and install.

Key Features and Benefits
- Heavy-duty load capacity: The 2.0mm thickness and 15mm strand width provide superior strength to support pedestrian traffic, light machinery, and even wheeled loads without bending or breaking.
- Anti-slip surface: The raised diamond pattern creates a natural non-slip texture, significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls on walkways and platforms.
- Corrosion resistance: The galvanized coating shields the steel from moisture, chemicals, and UV exposure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
- Lightweight and economical: Expanded metal grating is lighter than solid steel plates or many other grating types, reducing transportation and installation costs while maintaining excellent rigidity.
- No weld points: The one-piece construction eliminates weak weld joints, ensuring uniform strength throughout the entire sheet and preventing premature failure.
- Easy to install: The grating can be cut, shaped, and welded on-site to fit any configuration. Standard sizes allow for quick and simple installation on support beams or steel frames.
- Customizable options: Available in various sheet dimensions, aperture sizes, and galvanization types to match specific engineering requirements.
- Low maintenance: The durable galvanized finish requires minimal upkeep, saving time and money over the product lifetime.
Typical Applications
- Walkways, catwalks, and pedestrian bridges
- Industrial platforms and mezzanine floors
- Stair treads and step covers

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the standard size of this galvanized expanded metal grating?
Common standard sizes include 1000 x 2000 mm and 1220 x 2440 mm. However, we can produce custom sizes based on your drawings or specifications. Let us know your required length and width, and we will provide a suitable solution.
2. Can the thickness and strand width be adjusted?
Yes, the thickness and strand width can be customized. While 2.0mm thickness and 15mm strand width are popular for heavy-duty walkways, other combinations are available upon request. Our engineering team can help you choose the optimal specification for your load conditions.
3. How is the grating fixed to the walkway support structure?
Expanded metal grating can be fixed using various methods, such as bolting, welding, or using specialized clips. We recommend consulting your contractor to determine the most suitable fixing method based on the support frame material and load requirements. Our product can be cut and drilled on-site to accommodate different fasteners.
4. Is the galvanized coating sufficient for outdoor use?
Yes, the galvanized coating provides long-term corrosion protection and is suitable for most outdoor environments. For conditions involving heavy saltwater or chemical exposure, we can supply additional powder coating or other protective finishes as an option. Always consider the specific environmental factors of your project area.
5. What is the approximate weight per square meter?
The weight depends on the exact aperture size and sheet thickness. For 2.0mm thickness with 15mm strand width, the approximate weight is around 6-8 kg per square meter, but it can vary. Request a detailed weight calculation from our sales team for accurate logistics planning.
6. Does this grating provide slip resistance?
Yes, the diamond-shaped openings and raised strand pattern create an effective anti-slip surface, even when the grating is wet or dusty. This makes it an excellent choice for walkways in industrial facilities, public areas, and rooftop access routes.
7. What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Our MOQ is flexible and depends on the specific size and finishing requirements. For standard products, we accept orders starting from a small quantity. For customized items, a moderate MOQ may apply. Please contact our sales team to discuss your project volume.
8. How long does production and shipment take?
For standard sizes, production usually takes 7-15 days after receipt of deposit. Custom orders may require an additional 5-10 days depending on complexity. Delivery time also depends on the destination port. Since we ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, and Shanghai, most international shipments can be arranged promptly.
