About Carbon Steel Raised Expanded Sheet, Unpolished
The carbon steel expanded sheet has a raised, unpolished (mill) surface. Carbon steel provides strength, hardness, weldability, and resistance to wear. The raised surface offers skid resistance and a high strength-to-weight ratio. Expanded metal sheets are created by slitting and cold-forming metal as it expands in a press. This process creates diamond-shaped openings that are nominally measured the long way of the diamond (LWD) and the short way of the diamond (SWD). Raised, or standard, expanded sheets offer a skid-resistant surface and a high strength-to-weight ratio. Flat expanded sheets have been rolled for a smooth, level surface. Expanded metal sheets are measured by the percentage of open area, which is the ratio of open space to total space in a given area. A sheet with a larger percentage of open area contains less material than one with a smaller percentage.
