Use of High Strength Expanded Metals in Industrial environments

copper expanded metal

The expanded metal mesh has various properties that make it highly versatile and attractive for various applications and uses throughout diverse industries. Varying from an aluminium foil to heavy duty Inconel expanded mesh, you can find a wide range of expanded metal choice available with us.

High efficiency

Electricity and heat can flow through a continuous connection provided in an expanded metal. There is no break or weld in the mesh because it is made from a single piece of metal. Expanded metals have the ability to heat internally and efficiently. The robust mesh retains its strength and physical properties even when it comes in contact with incredibly high temperatures. Its flexibility allows it to fit easily even in the irregular shapes and curves and remains strong. Expanded metals are vibration resistant. These durable materials are also used in industry applications as insulation covers.

Anti-Slip

Expanded mesh gives sound grip to underfoot that is specifically useful for the security of the user while using stair treads, ramps and walkways.

Automotive applications

Expanded metals are used in a range of primary and secondary automotive products. Standard applications of Monel mesh expanded metals are in filtration, air filters, oil filters, bearings etc. The expanded metals made from other materials are ideal for automotive speaker grills and covers, light covers, protective light mesh and decorative applications. We develop mesh screens for use in innovative manners.

Expanded metals and foils are widely used in airbag filters. They help to save money by preventing waste generation and they do not unravel. You can order expanded metals in a wide range of widths, thicknesses and open areas.

Polymer filtration

Expanded metals made from high strength materials are used in industries that process water, food, beverages, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. We offer open area configurations with controlled pore sizes to provide a stable flow rate for your filter process.

The expanded metals are widely used in polymerization processes to make fluoropolymers. The filter screens are deisgned to remove the harmful additives from the polymers. They also offer outstanding performance in applications in medical, filtration, separation, food processing and food packaging.

Pharmaceutical

Precision expanded metal screens are used in medical equipments, devices and facilities. The standard applications include – liquid and air filtration, defibrillator pads, hearing aid and special batteries. Advanced expanded metal screens help innovate new applications.

Copper expanded metal

Copper expanded metal has outstanding thermal and electrical conductivity with good corrosion resistance and strength. It also offers high strength and rigidity hence is suitable for use in heat sinks, radiators and enclosures. Copper expanded metal allows varying magnitudes of light, water, air and sound to flow through it enhancing visibility, safety and ventilation. The solid structure of mesh prevents wear and tear over the time function that makes it a long lasting substitute for traditional materials.

Copper is particularly chosen as expanded metal for use in electrical, heating and cooling, refrigeration, construction and architectural industries.
