Through extrusion, aluminum can be formed into intricate designs and manufactured to the specifications of complex mounting systems, frames and other structural components, a process that would be impossible to replicate with steel.
Extrusions are made from malleable aluminum alloy that has been forced through a die, producing shapes with dimensional accuracy and excellent surface quality. Extruded parts can range in size from very small to nearly 22" wide.
Our extrusion profiles are used in a wide range of applications around the globe, most commonly in the building and construction, solar and other renewable energy solutions, transportation, automotive, and home and office equipment sectors. With decades of experience in the manufacture of aluminum extrusion profiles, we can offer you advanced solutions to your most complex design problems.
Hydro Extrusion's customers have access to the vast resources across our entire network of 20+ locations and more than 60 extrusion presses in North America. Using both 6xxx series aluminum alloys and proprietary alloys in the 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000, and 7000 series, as well as standard and special tempers, we can satisfy your most complex size and shape requirements with a diverse product line that includes:
