Metal Panels
Close off openings in structures while allowing air to pass through.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Expanded panels are more rigid than perforated panels and are for use when structural stability is important. They can be formed and welded; however, they are more difficult to cut than perforated panels. Raised panels have strands that overlap to provide a skid-resistant surface. Use them to create safety guards for equipment and machinery.
3003 aluminum is easier to form than 1100 aluminum. It's about half the weight of steel and resists corrosion in wet environments.

Expanded panels are more rigid than perforated panels and are for use when structural stability is important. They can be formed and welded; however, they are more difficult to cut than perforated panels. Flattened panels begin as raised panels, then they're rolled to a smooth and flat finish. Use them to create protective enclosures, shelving, grilles, and baskets.
1100 aluminum is about half the weight of steel and resists corrosion in wet environments.
