Expanded Metal
Vorteile von Streckmetall
Expanded metal is a versatile material that can be used in various sectors and industries. It is characterized by its high stability, flexibility and durability.
Diese Eigenschaften machen Streckmetall zu einer besonders effizienten Lösung für unterschiedlichste Anforderungen in Industrie, Architektur und Technik.
Durch seine Kombination aus Stabilität, Flexibilität und Materialeffizienz lässt es sich vielseitig einsetzen und an unterschiedliche technische sowie gestalterische Anforderungen anpassen. Je nach Einsatzbereich ergeben sich daraus weitere spezifische Vorteile, die im Folgenden im Überblick dargestellt sind und die Vielseitigkeit des Materials zusätzlich verdeutlichen.
Expanded metal consists of a three-dimensional metal mesh that offers a high degree of stability. It can withstand heavy loads and is therefore ideal for use in building and construction projects.
Thanks to its corrugated structure, expanded metal is extremely flexible. It can easily be formed into different shapes and sizes to meet the requirements of different applications. This allows for enormous versatility in the use of expanded metal.
Expanded metal is an extremely durable material. It is corrosion-resistant and can withstand extreme weather conditions. This makes it perfect for indoor and outdoor use as well as in areas with high humidity or salty air, such as coastal regions.
Expanded metal is an environmentally friendly material. In contrast to perforated sheeting, no waste is produced during manufacture. It can also be 100% recycled and therefore helps to reduce waste and environmental pollution. By using expanded metal, you are therefore making a positive contribution to environmental protection.
Due to its low weight, expanded metal is particularly easy to handle and transport. It can be easily cut, shaped and assembled, which facilitates installation in various applications.
Compared to knitted wire mesh, for example, this means that the mesh is significantly more stable, has a homogeneous surface, has no free wire ends and is cost-efficient.
Our meshes cover a wide range of mesh sizes. From the finest micro mesh with a mesh length of 0.5 mm to large meshes with a mesh length of up to 121 mm, we manufacture expanded metal for a wide range of applications.
Electricity, magnetic fields and heat can be conducted through expanded metal grids because the entire piece of metal is a continuous conductive connection. There are no interruptions or weld seams; the grid is formed from a single piece of metal.
Expanded metal is a cost-efficient product, especially when compared with other metal processing methods. For example, a high proportion of scrap is produced during the production of perforated sheet metal. The production of expanded metal is a traditional method that meets the requirements of modern resource-saving production processes.
