One of the demanded types of metal rolling is die cutting, or metal cutting in another way. This is the waste material remaining after pressing. Initially, the die-cutting is clad with copper or brass, therefore, products from it serve for a long time.
This is one of the materials for arranging a variety of objects. For example, to perform the fencing of a private country house, cottage. It is important that mounted structures using die cutting are very simple and easy, so you can make them yourself, without involving outside help.
Material Features
A method of manufacturing is drawing out of 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 is 7-8 mm. The next stage is pressing, which allows you to get sheets of a large plane that can withstand deformation. Using this method of production and its wastelessness allow you to get a more affordable material.
In preparation for use, the metal cut-out does not need any processing, but after making the necessary construction, for example, the same fence, it can be painted so that the metal does not start to oxidize from the effects of rainfall.
Although felling is a waste product, the structures made from it are durable and able to withstand long-term operation.
Benefits
Metal die cutting, and then products made of it, have a lot of important characteristics. These include:
- Extraordinary look.
- Low cost.
- Security.
- A variety of patterns of perforation.
- Simple installation.
- Reliability of a design.
The advantages of the material include the fact that there are no seams or cracks on the sheets. In addition, the material does not include formaldehydes and other volatile chemicals harmful to humans. Conclusion: metal notch is one of the alternative materials that can create excellent competition for expensive analogues.
Application methods
Many consumers prefer to purchase this material because of its versatility, since die cutting can be used in many cases:
- As an alternative to mesh netting.
- To create additional ventilation under the guard.
- Perform reinforcement of the foundation.
- To strengthen the brickwork.
- For the manufacture of stairs.
Such a wide variety of applications is caused by the difference in products based on both the thickness of the sheets and the type of equipment - it can be sheet (suitable for fencing) and rolled (convenient for reinforcing).
Parameters
The dimensions of the sheets are very important if metal notching is used for stairs. In this case, it is necessary to observe certain geometric indicators for the following points:
- The maximum deviation in sheet sizes is ± 25 mm in length and ± 10 mm in width.
- Torn structure should not have a place on the sheets.
- If it is planned on one side of the sheet an uncrossable area, its width must be agreed in advance with the customer.
Marching stairs, during the construction of which metal notch was used, are considered the most convenient and therefore are erected everywhere. In addition, their installation allows you to save space in the room. Given the design features, stair products are of the following types:
- With bowstrings. So-called inclined beams located along the parts. They are the foundation of the carrier. The end elements of the march in such products are closed with bowstrings.
- With skewers. The shape of the elements is sawtooth so that steps can be laid on them.
