Product type
Aluminium extrusions are versatile shapes made from aluminium alloy that are created by forcing molten aluminium through a shaped die. This process allows for the production of complex cross-sectional shapes that can be used in a variety of applications. Aluminium is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and has excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, making it a popular choice for many industries.
| Material | Aluminium alloy (typically 6061, 6063, or 7075) |
| Standard sizes | Varies based on application, commonly available in widths from 1 inch to over 12 inches |
| Wall thickness | Typically ranges from 0.062 inches to 0.500 inches |
| Finish options | Mill finish, anodized, powder-coated |
| Length | Standard lengths typically range from 10 feet to 20 feet |
When selecting aluminium extrusions, buyers should consider the specific alloy grade required for their application, as different grades offer varying levels of strength and corrosion resistance. It's also important to specify the desired dimensions, wall thickness, and any required surface finishes. Buyers should inquire about tolerances and certifications, especially for applications in regulated industries, and consider the quantity needed for their projects.
