Aluminum Extrusions - What Are They Used For

Aluminum Extrusions

Aluminum extrusions are a versatile and widely used material in the manufacturing industry. They are created by heating and pushing aluminum billets through a die to create a specific shape. These extrusions can be used in a variety of applications due to their strength, lightweight, and flexibility. When combined with powder coating, aluminum extrusions offer even more benefits and can be used in a wide range of industries and applications.
