What makes extruded aluminum so robust?

The Strength of Aluminum Extrusion Products: Built to Last

Aluminum extrusion products are engineering marvels, delivering exceptional strength for demanding applications. At Southwest Aluminium (Kunshan) Co., Ltd, we’ve perfected this process since 2012, crafting bars and seamless tubes that power industries from aerospace to construction. What makes extruded aluminum so robust? Extrusion forces heated aluminum—often at 400°C—through precision dies, aligning its grain structure for enhanced durability. Alloys like 6061 or 7075 achieve tensile strengths up to 310 MPa and 570 MPa, respectively, rivaling heavier metals. Our 12 extrusion lines (500 to 8,000 tons) produce components like structural beams that withstand high loads in skyscrapers or automotive chassis enduring road stresses.

Strength doesn’t mean rigidity. Extruded profiles can be tailored for flexibility, ideal for complex designs like aircraft fuselages. Southwest Aluminium (Kunshan) ’s 70,000-ton capacity ensures distributors receive consistent, high-strength products, while machining factories benefit from our ASTM B221-compliant bars for precision CNC work. With SGS and TUV certifications, quality is guaranteed.

The future shines bright: extruded aluminum supports lightweight electric vehicle frames and durable drone structures, balancing strength with efficiency. Our rapid 24-hour quotes keep supply chains moving for clients in the EU and Middle East. When strength matters, aluminum extrusions from Southwest Aluminium (Kunshan)  deliver reliability that lasts.
