>What is 'expanded metal'?
Expanded metal is the mesh that's made by cutting
parallel, staggered slits into sheet metal and
pulling it so that it opens up into diamond-shaped
gaps. It comes in various thicknesses, from heavy
steel types sturdy enough to use as stair treads,
medium grades often seen as screen-door
reinforcement, to lightweight aluminum types
suitable for delicate small-sculpture armature.
