Expanded Metal

Canadian Super Steel is a slit and stretched sheet product with a variety of diamond-shaped perforations. Steel Expanded Metal saves weight and metal while allowing light, liquid, sound, and air to travel freely. It also has a beautiful or aesthetic appearance. Screens, window security panels, machine guards, and other items are all part of this useful and adaptable product line. Decorative Expanded things are commonly used in shelves, signage, and ceiling tiles.

R – Raised – Expanded metal as it is after it has been expanded (the surface is not level), e.g. ¾-9R
F – Flattened – Expanded metal that has been cold rolled to produce a level surface, e.g. ¾-9F.
