Aluminum Extrusion for Aerospace

Aerospace aluminum extrusion profiles operate at the intersection of maximum structural efficiency and rigorous qualification requirements. Every gram of material must contribute to structural performance, and every dimension must remain within specification across the full temperature and load envelope of the application. Our aerospace extrusion capability is built around high-strength alloys and the process controls necessary to meet the documentation and traceability standards of the aerospace supply chain.

Primary alloys include 7003, 7108, and 7021, achieving tensile strengths exceeding 400 MPa—sufficient for transmission system components, aerospace pallets and containers, structural brackets, and load-bearing enclosures where weight-to-strength optimization is the primary engineering driver. The naturally aged T5 temper, commonly specified for 7XXX aerospace extrusions, provides a favorable combination of strength, toughness, and stress corrosion resistance compared to peak-aged T6 temper.

Material qualification, chemical composition verification, and mechanical property testing are conducted in accordance with applicable aerospace standards, with full certificate of conformance (CoC) and material test reports (MTR) provided with each shipment. Profile dimensional inspection reports are available on request.

Die design for aerospace extrusions accounts for the tighter dimensional tolerances, higher alloy flow resistance, and surface integrity requirements of this sector. We support first-article inspection (FAI) processes and can accommodate PPAP-equivalent documentation requirements for production approval. Engineering collaboration is available throughout the design and qualification phase.
