Expanded metal steel grating is the most practical and economical way to assure strength, safety, and a non-skid surface. Expanded steel grating plank is ideal for use on plant runways, working platforms, and catwalks, as it is easily cut into irregular shapes and can be installed quickly by welding or bolting.
Variety: small, medium and heavy expanded metal mesh. Expanded aluminum mesh, expanded platinum filtration mesh, expanded brass mesh, expanded copper mesh, expanded stainless steel mesh, expanded nickel mesh. Opening in the shape of diamond, hexagonal or special shape.
Expanded metal gratings are the ideal metal material for industrial walkways. The gratings combine light weight with unusual strength because each diamond is designed like a truss; every strand works to distribute the load in all directions to the supporting structure. Although Expanded Metal Grating is used extensively for walkways it also has many other uses.
Expanded Metal Grating is identified by weight per square foot. Carbon Steel Expanded Metal Grating is available in 3, 3.14, 4, 4.27, 5, 6.25 and 7 pounds per square foot. Aluminum Expanded Metal Grating is available in 2 pounds per square foot and Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Grating is available in 3.3 and 4.5 pounds per square foot.
Application of Expanded Steel Grating:
Bright Hot Dipped Galvanized Expanded Metal for Building Uses
As fences for walkway, tread plates, stair protection:
Walkways
Stairways
Catwalks
Platforms

Aluminum Expanded steel grating is available in 2 pounds per square foot and Stainless Steel Expanded steel grating is available in 3.3 and 4.5 pounds per square foot.
Expanded steel grating offers many advantages over bar grating. It is made of one continuous piece of material yielding a greater strength to weight ratio. There are no welded parts and the surface is naturally skid proof without further processing. The pattern and openings provides a wider range of load capacity gratings to meet your exact requirements giving greater economy to your project.
