Aluminum Bar Applications 

Aluminum bar is produced through an extrusion process and is elongated using dies. Aluminum bar can be produced into a variety of different shapes and can be used for many different industrial applications.  Aluminum bar has many different uses and industrial applications due to its light weight, corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability. Aluminum bar continues to be the choice metal for many different industrial applications including: 
  • Medical Assembly
  • Aircraft Construction
  • Structural components
  • Commercial Transportation

How is Aluminum Bar Manufactured?

Aluminum bar is most commonly manufactured through the process of extrusion. In extrusion, aluminum bar is manufactured by pushing the material through a die that is under pressure. As the aluminum is pushed through the pressure filled die, it is processed into the producer’s desired shape, which is either square, rectangle, hex, or round.
