Expanded metal is sometimes considered an alternative to sheet metal or wire mesh. It combines some of the best features of both—providing a material that is stronger than thin wire mesh and has better air flow and drainage than sheet metal. In fact, it's an excellent option for custom wire baskets that need more tensile strength than wires can provide. Additionally, expanded metal cuts down on the need for extra welding operations compared to using individual steel wires, making it faster and easier to complete sturdy baskets.
Overall, stainless steel expanded metal baskets are incredibly tough and versatile—especially when made of highly-resistant metal alloys such as grade 316 stainless steel. They’ve got a variety of uses across just about every industry Marlin Steel works with and, for that reason, it’s worth exploring.
 

Expanded metal mesh is a type of sheet metal mesh which has been cut and stretched to form a regular pattern (often diamond-shaped) of metal mesh-like material. It is commonly used for fences and grates.
Expanded metal mesh is stronger than an equivalent weight of wire mesh such as chicken wire.
Freshly-cut expanded metal has a large number of exposed sharp edges, requiring caution and protective clothing, such as leather gloves and aprons to prevent skin abrasions and cuts.

heavy duty expanded metal mesh is produced from a heavy-gauge metal plate. In the production process, the heavy-gauge metal plate is simultaneously die-cut and expanded as it moves through the progressive dies on a press. This production process allows the heavy-gauge metal plate to be expanded lengthwise significantly, while reducing much of its original weight per square meter and retaining its sturdiness as a single piece of metal.
The heavy duty expanded metal mesh contains no joints or welds. It is easy to install and maintain.
The heavy duty expanded metal mesh creates a stable, slip-resistant surface on stairs, platforms, catwalks and pedestrian walkways.
In sum, the heavy duty expanded metal mesh is strong, so it can hold up very well even in the most demanding work environments.
The heavy duty expanded metal mesh also features a high percentage of open area that allows snow, grease, dirt and other debris to fall through.
Our materials used for making heavy duty expanded metal mesh sheets include carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel and aluminum.
