Anping Xinye Metal Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd, located in the wire mesh capital of China – Hengshui, Hebei, is proud to present our premium Aluminum Expanded Metal Mesh with a thickness of 0.8mm and a diamond pattern of 8x16mm. This lightweight yet robust mesh is specifically designed for ventilation applications, offering exceptional airflow while maintaining structural integrity. Our advanced production process ensures uniform diamond openings and smooth edges, making it a reliable choice for both industrial and architectural projects.
The 8x16mm diamond mesh provides an optimal balance between open area and strength, allowing efficient air circulation without compromising security. Whether you need to install ventilation panels, protective guards, or decorative screens, this aluminum expanded metal mesh delivers consistent performance. Its lightweight nature reduces handling and installation costs, while the corrosion-resistant aluminum material ensures long service life even in humid or outdoor environments.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material: High-quality aluminum alloy (AA1100, AA3003, etc.), offering excellent corrosion resistance and lightweight properties.
- Thickness: 0.8mm (±0.05mm), providing enough rigidity while remaining easy to cut and shape.
- Diamond Pattern: 8mm x 16mm (LWD x SWD), with a typical open area of approximately 55-60% for efficient ventilation.
- Weight: Approximately 0.8-1.2 kg/m² (depending on alloy and temper), making it one of the lightest expanded metal options available.
- Surface Finish: Mill finish as standard; anodized, powder coated, or painted finishes are available upon request for enhanced aesthetics or additional protection.
- Customization: Available in various sheet sizes, coils, or cut-to-size panels to meet your specific project requirements.
- Applications: Ideal for ventilation grilles, air conditioning covers, window screens, machine guards, filter supports, and architectural cladding.

Why choose our Aluminum Expanded Metal Mesh? The unique diamond pattern provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, making it suitable for applications where both airflow and durability are critical. Unlike perforated sheets, the expanded metal mesh has no loose waste during production, resulting in a more eco-friendly process. The mesh is also easy to weld, cut, or form, allowing for quick customization on-site. For ventilation systems, the 8x16mm diamond size ensures that large particles and debris are blocked while maintaining steady airflow – perfect for HVAC vents, exhaust fans, and industrial louvers.
Customer Benefits:
• Lightweight – Reduces structural load and shipping costs.
• Corrosion-resistant – Aluminum naturally resists rust, ideal for outdoor or high-humidity environments.
• Unobstructed airflow – High open area ensures efficient ventilation without clogging.
• Customizable – Available in different sizes, finishes, and even perforated patterns upon request.
• Cost-effective – Lower material cost compared to stainless steel, with similar performance for many applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the actual open area of the 8x16mm diamond mesh?
A: The open area is approximately 55-60%, depending on the strand width. This provides excellent airflow while maintaining structural strength. -
Q: Can this mesh be used outdoors?
A: Yes, aluminum is naturally corrosion-resistant and suitable for outdoor use. For harsh coastal environments, we recommend an additional anodized or powder-coated finish for extra protection. -
Q: Do you offer custom sheet sizes or cut-to-length service?
A: Absolutely. We can produce sheets, coils, or cut pieces per your drawings. Minimum order quantities may apply for custom sizes. -
Q: What is the weight per square meter?
A: For 0.8mm thickness in aluminum alloy 1100, the weight is approximately 0.9 kg/m². Other alloys may vary slightly. -
Q: Can I weld or paint this mesh?
A: Yes, aluminum expanded metal can be welded using TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler rods. Painting requires proper surface preparation (e.g., primer) to ensure adhesion. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for orders?
A: For standard sizes, we ship within 7-15 working days. Custom orders may take 15-25 working days depending on quantity and complexity. -
Q: Do you provide free samples?
A: Yes, we offer free samples (shipping cost may apply) for customers to evaluate the quality before placing a bulk order. -
Q: Is this mesh suitable for insect screens?
A: The 8x16mm diamond opening is larger than typical insect mesh, so it is more suitable for ventilation and protection against larger debris. For insect screening, we recommend smaller openings like 3x6mm or 4x8mm.
