Extrusion ingots

Extrusion ingot is the raw material for extruded profiles.

Extrusion ingot is the raw material for extruded profiles.

Hydro has developed a range of standard alloys covering customer needs. If needed, we also develop new alloys.

Key features

  • High extrudability
  • Recyclable
  • High conductivity (electrical and high temperature)

Product details

  • Soft alloyed billets (1000, 3000, 4000, 6000 series) range in diameters from 152 to 405 mm and lengths from 400 to 7,000 mm and alloy
  • Hard alloyed billets (2000, 5000, 7000 series) range in diameters from 178 to 433 mm and billet lengths are available from 500 to 6,400 mm

Casting

Other metals are added to the molten aluminium to form various foundry alloys.

Molten aluminium is tapped from the pots and cast into logs, rolling slabs or ingots, depending on whether further processing is extruding, rolling or remelting. Small quantities of other metals can be added to the liquid aluminium to produce foundry alloys of different durability and tensile strengths.
