15mm Square Hole Mild Steel Perforated Sheet Metal – 20mm Pitch – 2mm Thick

Description

Mild Steel Perforated Sheet Mesh

15mm mild steel perforated metal is produced by punching flat sheet metal with a specific pattern. This is driven by the customer’s requirement for the metal for cosmetic or application purposes.

Perforated sheet mesh is a versatile material that is perfect for a variety of applications requiring a balance of visibility and strength. The Mild Steel Perforated Sheet Mesh from The Mesh Company is a prime example of this durability and versatility. With a square hole size of 15mm and a pitch of 20mm, these sheets are engineered to provide excellent strength and resistance to damage, while still allowing for a high level of visibility. Furthermore, with a thickness of 2mm, these sheets are thick enough to withstand heavy use without becoming deformed or damaged.

In short, for anyone in need of a reliable and versatile sheet mesh that can stand up to a range of applications, this Mild Steel Perforated Sheet Mesh is the perfect solution.

We also offer a massive range of stainless steel perforated metal sheet options from immediate stock. In order to produce stainless steel perforated sheet, flat sheet metal is punched with round or square holes. Perforated sheets are commonly often used in applications where the passing of air is required. Because the holes are punched, it is possible to have a far stronger finished metal product than it would be for the equivalent thickness in woven or welded mesh.

FAQs For This Product

What Is The Difference Between Square and Round Hole Perforated Sheet?

Both square hole and round hole perforated sheets are widely used, and each has its own advantages and specific applications based on their different characteristics.

Square Hole Perforated Metal:
Square hole perforated metal offers a larger open area compared to round hole perforation of the same size, which allows for a higher passage of materials, air, or light. This makes it an excellent choice for applications that require more ventilation or a higher filtration rate. Additionally, the straight lines of the square holes can offer a distinct aesthetic appeal that suits certain design preferences.

Square hole perforated metal is often used in applications such as grilles, decorative panels, display stands, and sorting for a variety of industries, including architectural, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and more. However, it is important to note that square perforations may potentially create a weaker sheet compared to round holes, as the stress points are more concentrated.

Round Hole Perforated Metal:
Round hole perforated metal is the most commonly used type of perforated metal, likely due to its versatility and the high structural integrity it offers. The circular holes create less stress concentration, which results in a stronger sheet, especially when subjected to bending or shaping.

Round hole perforated metal provides a pleasing aesthetic and can efficiently control the passage of air, sound, light, heat, and solid particles based on the size of the perforation. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, including acoustics, filtration, light diffusion, HVAC, and decorative or architectural applications.

How Strong Is 2mm Thick Perforated Sheet?

2mm perforated metal sheets are quite strong, but several factors influence their strength. These include the type of metal used, the size and pattern of the holes, and the distance between them (known as the pitch).

For most common applications, 2mm thickness would provide a good balance between strength and flexibility.

The perforations do, however, reduce the sheet’s strength. A sheet with a large number of small holes closely spaced together will be weaker than one with fewer, larger holes spaced further apart. Similarly, a sheet with round holes tends to be stronger than one with square holes, as the corners of square holes can become stress points.

The strength of a 2mm thick perforated metal sheet should be adequate for typical applications such as filtration, ventilation, or decorative panels. But for applications that require significant mechanical strength or that involve heavy loads or high stress, you might need to consider a thicker sheet, fewer or smaller perforations, or a different material.
