Looking for multi extrusion panels?
Extrusions offer many design opportunities not offered by sheet or plate.
- Extrusions can be welded in parallel to produce width increments to meet the design requirements without the drop or scrap caused by cutting plates to width.
- Extrusions can be produced at the length to meet design requirements without the drop or scrap caused by cutting plates to length.
- Extrusions are easily produced with characteristics such as ribs, I-beam shapes, tubes, hat sections, box beams, angles, tees, and so on. To produce these shapes using a plate would require extensive cutting, forming, and joining of the plate at a high cost and with dimensional control issues.
- Extrusions are offered in most alloys.
