Welcome to Anping Xinye Metal Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd, a trusted manufacturer located in Hengshui, Hebei, China. We specialize in producing high-quality expanded metal mesh for industrial applications. Our 0.5mm 304 Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Mesh with 1x2 inch Diamond Opening is engineered to deliver exceptional performance in filtering, screening, and separation tasks. With its precise diamond openings and robust stainless steel construction, this mesh offers a perfect balance of strength, durability, and flow efficiency.
This product is made from premium 304 stainless steel, which provides excellent corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, and long service life even in harsh environments. The 0.5mm strand thickness ensures a lightweight yet sturdy structure, while the 1x2 inch (approximately 25.4 x 50.8 mm) diamond opening allows for effective filtration of various particle sizes. Whether you need it for chemical processing, food and beverage filtration, wastewater treatment, or architectural screening, this expanded metal mesh is a reliable choice.
Key Features & Advantages
- Material Excellence: Made from 304 stainless steel, offering superior resistance to rust, acids, and alkalis. Suitable for wet, corrosive, or high-temperature environments.
- Precision Diamond Openings: 1x2 inch diamond shape ensures consistent particle size separation and optimal flow rate. The opening geometry also provides structural rigidity.
- Lightweight & Strong: With a strand thickness of only 0.5mm, the mesh is easy to handle, cut, and install without compromising mechanical strength.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for industrial filtering, sieving, ventilation, safety guards, partitions, and decorative panels.
- No Weaving or Welding: Expanded metal is formed by slitting and stretching a solid sheet, creating a seamless, one-piece structure that does not unravel or weaken at joints.
- Customizable Options: Available in various sheet sizes, edge treatments (e.g., flattened, raised), and surface finishes (mill finish, galvanized, PVC coated) to meet specific requirements.

Detailed Product Description
The 0.5mm 304 Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Mesh is manufactured using a precise expansion process that creates uniform diamond openings. Unlike woven wire mesh, expanded metal is a single piece of material, eliminating the risk of fraying or unraveling. This makes it particularly suitable for high-stress filtering applications where consistent performance is critical.
The 1x2 inch diamond opening size is carefully chosen to balance filtration efficiency with throughput. It can effectively separate particles larger than approximately 1 inch in one dimension, while allowing free passage of fluids or smaller particles. The 0.5mm strand thickness provides adequate rigidity to withstand mechanical pressure and vibration, yet remains flexible enough for easy cutting and forming.
304 stainless steel is the workhorse material for industrial environments. It offers excellent resistance to oxidation, organic acids, and many chemical solutions. The material is also non-magnetic (in annealed condition) and can withstand temperatures up to 870°C (in continuous service) and 925°C (intermittent). This makes the mesh suitable for hot gas filtration, kiln lining support, and other thermal applications.
We offer the mesh in standard 4x8 ft sheets, but we can also produce custom sizes, coil forms, or cut-to-length pieces. Edge treatments such as flattened (for safer handling) or raised (for added stiffness) are available. Surface finishes can be customized: mill finish, galvanized, PVC coated, or anodized depending on your corrosion resistance or aesthetic requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between expanded metal mesh and woven wire mesh?
A: Expanded metal mesh is made by slitting and stretching a solid metal sheet, creating a one-piece structure with diamond-shaped openings. It does not have woven joints, so it cannot unravel. Woven wire mesh is made by interlacing wires, which can shift under load. Expanded metal is generally stronger per unit weight and is ideal for applications requiring rigidity and uniform opening shape.
Q2: Can this mesh be used for fine particle filtration? The opening is 1x2 inch, which is quite large.
A: This mesh is designed for coarse filtration, separation, and screening where particles larger than approximately 1 inch need to be retained or where high flow rates are required. For finer filtration, we offer expanded metal meshes with smaller openings (e.g., 1/4 x 1/2 inch). Please contact us for customized options.
Q3: Is the 304 stainless steel suitable for food contact?
A: Yes, 304 stainless steel is a common food-grade material and is widely used in food processing equipment. However, for direct food contact, we recommend specifying a surface finish that meets sanitary standards (e.g., 2B finish or electro-polished). Please inform us of your application so we can recommend the appropriate finish.
Q4: What are the standard sheet sizes available?
A: Standard sheet size is 4x8 feet (1220x2440 mm). We also offer custom sizes per your drawings or specifications. Coil form is available for continuous processing applications.
Q5: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Certainly. We provide samples (e.g., A4 size or smaller) for evaluation. A small sample fee may apply, but it will be deducted from your first order. Please contact our sales team to arrange a sample.
Q6: How is the mesh packaged for export?
A: Sheets are bundled with protective materials (plastic film, wooden pallets, or crates) to prevent damage during transit. Coils are wrapped with waterproof paper and steel strapping. We ensure secure packaging for international shipping.
Q7: What is the lead time for custom orders?
A: Lead time depends on the quantity and specifications. Standard stock items ship within 7-10 days. Custom orders typically require 15-25 days. For urgent projects, we can discuss expedited options.
Q8: Do you offer any certifications for the material?
A: We can provide a mill test certificate (MTC) for the 304 stainless steel material upon request, confirming the chemical composition and mechanical properties. If you require specific third-party certifications, please let us know and we can discuss feasibility.
