One of the popular types of rolled metal is punching, or in other words punching metal. This is the waste material left after the pressing production. Initially, the die-cut is plated with copper or brass, so products made from it serve for a long time.
This is one of the materials for arranging a variety of objects. For example, to carry out the fencing of a private country house, a summer residence. What is important, the constructions are mounted using die cuts very simply and easily, so you can make them yourself, without outside help.
Material features
Manufacturing method - drawing from steel. In hot-rolled production, sheets are obtained with a thickness of 40-60 mm, in cold-rolled production - 15-20 mm, and the thickness of galvanized sheets - 7-8 mm. The next stage is pressing, which makes it possible to obtain sheets of a large plane that can withstand deformation. The use of such a production method and its zero waste make it possible to obtain a more affordable material.
In preparation for use, the metal perforation does not need anyprocessing, but after the necessary construction has been made, for example, the same fence, it can be painted so that the metal does not begin to oxidize from exposure to precipitation moisture.
Although logging is a waste product, the structures made from it are durable and can withstand long service life.
Benefits
Metal cutting, and then products from it, have a lot of important characteristics. These include:
- Extraordinary look.
- Low cost.
- Safety.
- Variety of perforation patterns.
- Easy installation.
- Design reliability.
The advantages of the material include the fact that there are no seams or cracks on the sheets. In addition, the composition of the material does not include formaldehyde and other volatile chemicals harmful to humans. Conclusion: metal perforation is one of the alternative materials that can create excellent competition for expensive counterparts.
Uses
Many consumers prefer to purchase this material because of its versatility, since die cutting can be used in many cases:
- As an alternative to chain-link mesh.
- To create additional ventilation under the fence.
- Reinforce foundation.
- For strengthening brickwork.
- For making stairs steps.
Such a wide variety of applications is due to the difference in products, based both on the thickness of the sheets and on the type of equipment - it happenssheet (suitable for fences) and roll (suitable for reinforcement).
Parameters
The dimensions of the sheets are very important if a metal perforation is used for stairs. In this case, it is necessary to comply with certain geometric indicators on the following points:
- Maximum deviation in sheet dimensions along the length ±25 mm, and along the width ±10 mm.
- Torn structure should not have a place on the sheets.
- If an impenetrable area is planned on one side of the sheet, its width must be agreed with the customer in advance.
Mid-flight stairs, during the construction of which a metal perforation was used, are considered the most convenient and therefore are being built everywhere. In addition, their installation allows you to save space in the room. Taking into account the structural features, ladder products are of the following types:
- With strings. This is the name of the inclined beams located along the parts. They are the basis of the bearing side. The end elements of the march in such products are closed with bowstrings.
- With braids. The shape of the elements is sawtooth so that steps can be laid on them.
