Frequently Asked Questions
What is micro expanded metal?
Micro expanded metal is a highly precise form of expanded mesh made by slitting and stretching metal sheets into uniform diamond-shaped patterns. It features extremely small openings, making it ideal for filtration, shielding, and reinforcement applications.
What materials are used to manufacture micro expanded metal?
It can be manufactured from various metals including stainless steel, copper, aluminum, nickel, titanium, and other specialized alloys, depending on the required level of conductivity, strength, and corrosion resistance.
What are the typical applications of micro expanded mesh?
Typical applications include battery electrode grids, EMI/RFI shielding, aerospace lightning strike protection, fine filtration systems, speaker grilles, and structural reinforcement in composite materials.
What are the advantages of micro expanded metal over woven wire mesh?
Unlike woven mesh, micro expanded metal is made from a single sheet of metal, ensuring it will not unravel or fray. It provides superior electrical conductivity, heat transfer, and structural integrity while minimizing material waste.
Can the mesh opening size and thickness be customized?
Yes, we offer fully customizable specifications including different strand widths, overall thickness, LWD (Long Way of Diamond), and SWD (Short Way of Diamond) to meet your exact design requirements.
