Expanded metal mesh as a decorative net, the general material is stainless steel plate or aluminum plate, strength and hardness are high, light structure, good flexibility, good ventilation, strong tensile force, durable, simple installation.


Expanded metal has been cut and stretched to form a regular diamond pattern. Commonly used as fences, gates, facades, and treads. Expanded metal sheets have three types, raised expanded metal, micro expanded metal, and flattened expanded metal.


In order to give a feeling of comfort when walking on treads, expanded metal treads generally adopt flattened expanded metal. Expanded metal stair treads are desirable for mobile stairs, fixed stairs, and spiral stairs.
