Expanded metal grating is heavy-duty expanded metal produced by slitting and stretching thick steel plate (thickness ≥ 3 mm). Compared with standard expanded metal, expanded metal grating has a larger opening and a thicker strand, delivering good anti-skid performance and high load capacity. So, it is perfectly suitable for applications requiring high load capacity or high walk safety requirements, such as industrial platforms, stair treads, walkways and trailers.
Our expanded metal grating products come in a variety of sturdy and durable materials including carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel, etc., to ensure it can maintain its best anti-skid performance and load capacity even working under the harshest environments.
