Extrusion Extrusions are produced by pressing a hot round billet through a forming die, with the bar exiting the die in the desired shape.
Extrusions have several advantages including the ability to produce stainless and hollow sections.
The tooling charge is very low and because setup time is minimal, small quantities are feasible. Circumscribing circle for solid and hollow sections up to approx. For handling purposes, lengths closer to 20 feet are preferred. Further cold drawing can provide 10x improvement in tolerances when necessary. All types of heat treatment carried out upon request.
