Expanded Metal tolerances


Stock Size Sheets
 Raised Mesh
        SWD: Plus 1/4" minus 0" per foot of width
        LWD: Plus 3/4 minus 0"
 Flattened Mesh
         SWD: Plus 1/4" minus 0" per foot of Width
         LWD: Plus 3/4" minus 0"
Grating
        SWD: Plus 1/4" minus 0" per foot of width
Camber
       Measured by placing a straight edge along the concave side of the sheet parallel to the    LWD, touching both ends. The maximum distance from the edge expanded metal to the straight edge is the camber
Raised Mesh
      1/16" per foot of length
Flattened Mesh 
      3/32" per foot of length
Out of Square
       Expanded metal sheets are not perfectly square as manufactured. Stock size sheets and    machine run non standard size sheets will be produced to the following tolerances 
        SWD: 1/16" per foot of Width
        LWD: 1/16" per foot of length
Sheets That have to be perfectly square must go through a secondary process of shearing.
Flattening
       Flattened sheet thickness shall be plus or minus 10% of published thickness or strand thickness
Non Standard Sheets
Machine Run
      Where tolerances permit, machine run non standard sheet sizes are manufactured to   the same tolerances as stock size sheets
Random Shearing
      Stock size sheets can be random sheared when a closer tolerance is required. This is a secondary process.
Bond Shearing
      Bond shearing can sometimes be performed, with limitations. This is a secondary process.
