Cross-shaped perforated plates are widely used in architecture, industrial filtration, acoustic panels, and facades because of their distinctive pattern and functional open area. However, the same geometry that gives them strength and style — the multiple edges and cutouts — also exposes more metal surface and sharper edges to the environment, increasing corrosion risk. Choosing […]

Why surface oxidation matters for 3003 aluminum 3003 is a widely used, manganese-alloyed aluminum grade valued for excellent formability, reasonable corrosion resistance, and cost effectiveness. Like all aluminum alloys, 3003 forms a very thin, natural oxide layer (aluminum oxide, Al₂O₃) almost immediately when exposed to air. That thin film is protective — it’s an important […]

Why Honeycomb Perforated Panels Are Gaining Popularity in Modern Ceilings Honeycomb Perforated Panels have become a preferred material in contemporary ceiling design thanks to their balanced mix of visual appeal and practical performance. The signature hexagonal pattern brings a geometric elegance that is subtle yet distinctive, making it suitable for offices, lobbies, retail spaces, and […]

Perforated metal plates are everywhere — screening, filtration, architectural facades, machine guards, and heavy-duty industrial screens. When the base material is Q345B, its chemical composition plays a major role in how well a perforated plate stands up to abrasion, impact and long-term wear. This article walks through the most important elements in Q345B, how each […]

Stamped anti-slip steel plates are a go-to solution for improving worker safety and equipment access across industries. The hole pattern on a plate isn’t just cosmetic — it determines traction, drainage, durability, and how well the surface performs in mud, oil, snow, or heavy foot traffic. Although these plates are easy to produce in many […]

Rectangular-pattern perforated metal sheets are a versatile and cost-effective solution when you need to control airflow, daylight, privacy, and aesthetics at the same time. In this article I’ll explain the key factors that determine ventilation and light transmission for rectangular perforated metal sheet ventilation applications, give practical design rules, show a simple open-area calculation, and […]
