Aluminum Extruded Products - Global Industry Market Analysis Report 2020-2031

Aluminum extruded products are products made by processing aluminum alloy materials into various cross-sectional shapes through aluminum extrusion process. They are widely used in the fields of construction, automobile, aerospace, electronics and industrial manufacturing. The extrusion process is to place the aluminum ingot (usually 6000 series or 7000 series aluminum alloy, such as 6061, 7075) heated to a softened state in an extruder, and force extrusion through a die to form a long strip product with a complex cross-section, such as pipes, profiles, bars or special-shaped parts. Its advantages are high precision, strong consistency, and lightweight design and diversified surface treatment to meet the needs of different industries.

The outstanding features of aluminum extruded products are their lightweight and adjustable strength. The density of aluminum alloy is only 2.7 g/cm³, which is about 1/3 of that of steel. Through heat treatment (such as T6 state) or alloying (such as adding magnesium and silicon), its tensile strength can reach 300-400 MPa, which is close to some low-carbon steels. This makes it used in the automotive industry for body frames, radiators and seat rails, significantly reducing vehicle weight and improving fuel efficiency. In the construction field, aluminum extruded profiles (such as door and window frames, curtain wall systems) have become the material of choice for modern buildings due to their corrosion resistance and easy processing. In addition, the thermal conductivity of aluminum (about 200 W/m·K) makes it often used in radiators or housings in electronic devices to optimize thermal management performance.

From the manufacturing process point of view, the production of aluminum extruded products is highly flexible. The extrusion die can be customized according to the design to produce profiles ranging from simple round tubes to complex multi-cavity structures, such as wing ribs for aerospace or automotive battery trays. The process is divided into direct extrusion and indirect extrusion. The former extrude aluminum ingots through a moving die, and the latter operates through a fixed die and a moving ingot. The indirect method is more suitable for high-precision or large-size products. Surface treatments such as anodizing, powder coating or electrophoretic painting can enhance weather resistance, color selection and scratch resistance. For example, the thickness of the anodized layer can reach 10-25 microns, which significantly extends the service life. Modern technology has also introduced seamless extrusion and micro extrusion, which are suitable for ultra-thin-walled tubes or miniature electronic components.

However, aluminum extrusion products also have some limitations. Its production cost is high, due to the large investment in aluminum ingot smelting, mold manufacturing and extrusion equipment (such as 4000-ton extruders). Especially for complex special-shaped parts, the mold development cost may account for 20%-30% of the total cost. In addition, the tensile strength and hardness of aluminum are lower than those of steel, which may be insufficient under extremely high loads or impact conditions, and need to be compensated by reinforcement (such as 6061-T6) or composite design. At the same time, improper temperature control during extrusion (usually between 450-500°C) may lead to coarse grains or surface defects such as cracks or pores, which requires strict process monitoring and high-quality raw materials.

From the perspective of application development trends, aluminum extrusion products continue to grow under the demand for sustainable development and lightweight. In the field of new energy, electric vehicle battery shells and charging pile structures mostly use aluminum extrusions because of their recyclability (aluminum recycling rate is as high as 90% or more) and meet the requirements of circular economy. In aerospace, 7075 aluminum alloy extrusions are used in fuselage and landing gear components due to their high strength-to-weight ratio to reduce fuel consumption. With the combination of 3D printing and extrusion technology, the production efficiency of customized complex profiles has been improved. For example, multi-cavity structural parts for aviation can be formed in one go. In addition, advances in surface treatment technology (such as corrosion-resistant nano-coatings) have further expanded the application of aluminum extrusion products in marine engineering and extreme environments. In general, aluminum extrusion products play a key role in modern industry due to their light weight, high strength and plasticity. With process optimization and material innovation, their potential will be further released in green manufacturing and high-end applications.
