Expanded Panels—Raised
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.
Steel is lightly oiled.

Expanded Panels—Flattened
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.
Steel is lightly oiled.
Galvanized steel has good corrosion resistance in wet environments and can be used outdoors.
