With our last post, I’m sure you’ve already learned about our swaged grating, HY can offer another different process of grating for a variety of projects, and the answer is expanded aluminum grating. This humble but extremely versatile material quietly supports countless applications, providing safety, durability, and aesthetics. But what exactly is expanded aluminium grating and why should you consider it for your next project? Let’s take a deeper look and explore its potential.
Basic information on expanded aluminum grating
HY Industries’ expanded aluminum grating is processed differently from swage grating using ductile stretching. The core is a piece of aluminum sheet that has been cut and stretched to form a grid. This process not only strengthens the material but also reduces its weight, making it ideal for a variety of applications.
How expanded aluminum grating is manufactured
The manufacturing process of the expanded grating starts with the extrusion of the profile, followed by punching, hobbing, and straightening, and finally the expanded stretching. The profile is hobnailed and the surface finish is glossy, anodized, and painted.
Details of HY Industries’ expanded series aluminium grating
Welcome to HY Industries, where we specialize in the design and manufacture of high-quality, safe walkways that meet OSHA safety standards and building codes for modern industrial and commercial facilities. Our ever-expanding range of aluminum gratings offers practical, cost-effective solutions that ensure strength and safety through professionally designed patterns and non-slip surfaces. Our expanded series of aluminium gratings are available in the following ranges.
Product types
EWG13: This model has a rugged design for environments that require increased safety and durability. This grating is ideal for applications that require a strong and reliable surface.
EWG22: EWG22 diamond mesh combines structural integrity with a lightweight design. Its diamond-shaped openings provide excellent slip resistance, making it ideal for walkways and decks where safety is paramount.
EWG30: The EWG30 Safety Trail grating provides excellent traction and stability. Designed for high-traffic areas, the grating ensures safe passage for all. The EWG30 Safety Trail differs from the EWG13 and EWG22 in that there are gaps in the size and spacing of the trails, which make them suitable for different working conditions.
EWG40: EWG40 Anti-Slip Trail Grating features a specially designed surface for maximum slip resistance. Ideal for use in wet or greasy environments, this grating provides a safe landing to prevent accidents. There are some differences between EWG30 and EWG40 in terms of tensile dimensions. If you require a different size, please select according to the working conditions.
Planking: This is a block of channels with non-slip serrations. It can be used for slopes, walkways, floors, decks, and stairs. As with perforated aluminum plates, it is possible to create different patterns on the surface. This versatile product is easy to handle, cut, install, and maintain.
