ALUMINUM EXTRUSION PROFILES- WHO USES IT?
In modern aircraft, aluminum extrusion profiles like aluminum shapes and aluminum tubes are used extensively. The weight to strength ratio of aluminum has been very important to aviation so to reach all the way back to the Wright Brothers. So, an extrusion company supplies extruded aluminium tubes and shapes for a wide range of applications mainly within the interior of the aircraft. Throughout the interior of an airplane on the gallery workshops, interior doors and overhead bins, hinges are found. Extrusion of finished goods mainly occurs in either hollow or solid designs. They are mainly extruded using 6061- T6511. Because of its relatively high strength, good anodize response and good machinability, this alloy is usually chosen. Mainly the anodizing, assembling and supplying occurs in lengths from a few inches to over 120 degrees. To affix the interior components of the interior walls and aircraft frames, brackets are used. Good examples of the use of extruded aluminum are tho...
