What Is Aluminum Extrusion?
Aluminum extrusion is a manufacturing process where aluminum alloy is forced through a shaped die to create long profiles with a constant cross-section. This process allows for the production of complex, lightweight, and strong profiles with a variety of shapes, making it highly versatile for many applications. The extruded aluminum can be cut into specific lengths and can be used for a wide range of industries, including construction, automotive, and electronics.
The process begins with heating an aluminum billet to a malleable state and then pushing it through a die using high pressure. The result is a continuous aluminum shape that can be easily cut and finished to meet the specific needs of the customer. Aluminum extrusion offers several advantages, including excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and the ability to produce precise, custom shapes with minimal waste.

Aluminum Alloys for Extrusion
Aluminum alloys for extrusion are specially formulated to optimize strength, flexibility, and workability during the extrusion process, making them ideal for creating complex shapes and profiles. These alloys offer excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and are often used in a wide range of industries, including construction, automotive, and aerospace.
Alloy 6061 is a versatile, heat-treatable aluminum alloy known for its excellent mechanical properties and good corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, marine, and automotive for applications requiring high strength and weldability.
Alloy 6063 is a medium-strength, heat-treatable aluminum alloy with excellent finishability and corrosion resistance, often used in architectural and structural applications. It is popular for creating smooth, aesthetically appealing profiles in window frames, doors, and decorative components.
Alloy 7075 is one of the strongest aluminum alloys, offering high strength and excellent resistance to fatigue and stress corrosion, making it ideal for aerospace and military applications. Though it is less formable than other alloys, its high performance in extreme conditions makes it a preferred choice for critical structural components.
Alloy 1100 is a commercially pure aluminum alloy with excellent corrosion resistance, high ductility, and good workability, making it ideal for applications where high formability is required. It is commonly used in food processing, chemical equipment, and decorative applications due to its ease of fabrication.
