Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, established in 1998, proudly presents our factory-direct expanded metal lath specifically designed for permanent formwork. With over 25 years of manufacturing experience, we offer a reliable, high-strength solution that combines the 18-gauge galvanized steel with a precise 1/2-inch mesh pattern. This product is engineered to provide superior reinforcement and long-lasting durability, making it an ideal choice for concrete construction projects. Sample testing is available to ensure the product meets your exact requirements.

Product Overview
Our expanded metal lath is created by simultaneously slitting and stretching galvanized steel sheets, producing a diamond-shaped mesh with no waste material. The 18-gauge thickness delivers excellent structural integrity, while the 1/2-inch mesh opening allows for optimal concrete keying and bonding. Unlike traditional welded wire mesh, this expanded metal lath offers superior flexibility and crack resistance, making it perfect for permanent formwork applications in walls, ceilings, and architectural features.

Key Features & Benefits

  • High Strength 18-Gauge Steel: Provides robust load-bearing capacity for permanent formwork, reducing the need for additional reinforcement.
  • Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating: Offers exceptional corrosion resistance, ensuring long service life even in harsh environments.
  • Uniform 1/2-Inch Mesh: Promotes strong concrete adhesion and minimizes cracking, resulting in a smoother finished surface.
  • Expanded Metal Design: Eliminates welding points, enhancing structural integrity and reducing the risk of failure under stress.
  • Cost-Effective Solution: Factory-direct pricing eliminates middlemen, saving you money on large-scale projects.
  • Customizable Dimensions: Available in various sheet sizes, lengths, and widths to meet specific project requirements.
  • Sample Testing Available: We provide free samples for your evaluation, ensuring the product meets your specifications before bulk purchase.
