When is woven wire (1-1/2 x 17) appropriate vs a 2.5 expanded metal? and vice versa?

I would say this is a decision based on the circumstances of the project and not some material function or attribute. Obviously both have uses, but it is necessary for us to assess what should go where.

We just had a great lunch and learn from McNichols, who have a trove of formats, finishes, combinations and materials. Might be worth a look if not a contact-- www.mcnichols.com
