Galvanised Perforated Metal Sheet Steel Flat Plate Panels

Description

Galvanised Perforated Metal Sheet

Galvanised perforated metal sheet grid panel is produced by punching flat galvanised plate with a specific round pattern. The customer’s requirement for metal for cosmetic or application purposes drives this decision.

Sheets with perforations are commonly used to allow air to pass through. Ventilation and filtration are the main uses for this mesh type. Rodent proofing is another use for perforated sheeting.

Here is a quick breakdown of the key characteristics of this perforated metal:

• Bending & Forming – Good. It is possible to bend this metal with basic tools. We advise that bending by hand is not possible as the thickness of the sheet is too great. The thicker the sheet the harder to bend.
• Corrosion Resistance – Good. We produce this from mild steel that has been zinc-dipped, which give it a galvanised finish that protects it from the elements.
• Filtration – Good. This mesh has a large open area, consequently it is popularly used as a large filter or barrier.
• Welding – Possible. Galvanised metal, when properly prepared, can be welded in the same manner as uncoated steel.
• Painting – Poor. It’s best to paint plain steel since it doesn’t have a coating.

There are many reasons to use perforated metal sheet for your mesh need. Above all, it allows for great airflow while providing strength and structure.

This EN ISO 1461 protective coat ensures the mild steel is guarded against corrosion, which makes it an ideal component in gates, fences, outdoor furniture, balustrade inserts and shelving.

The perforated galvanised steel sheet has a pattern of round holes that can be varied based on metal thickness, hole size, and pitch (distance between holes).

Perforated steel sheet is commonly used by architects and designers as they are able to play with light, sound, and visual depth using the patterned sheet.

It is important to note that ‘Galvanised Steel’ and ‘Galvanized Steel’ refer to the same finish.
