Product type
Extrusions are a type of manufactured product created by forcing material through a shaped die to produce objects with a fixed cross-sectional profile. In the context of non-ferrous metals, particularly aluminum, these extrusions are typically lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and can be easily shaped into complex forms. They are widely used in various applications due to their strength-to-weight ratio and versatility.
| Material | Aluminum alloys such as 6061, 6063, and 7075 |
| Standard sizes | Varies widely; common profiles include angles, channels, and tubes |
| Length | Typically available in lengths ranging from 10 to 30 feet |
| Wall thickness | Ranges from 0.5 mm to 10 mm depending on the profile |
| Surface finish | Anodized, mill finish, or powder-coated options available |
When selecting aluminum extrusions, consider the specific alloy that best suits your application, as different alloys offer varying mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Specify the desired dimensions, including length, width, and wall thickness, as well as any surface finish requirements. Additionally, inquire about tolerances and certifications, especially if the extrusions will be used in critical applications.
