The Benefits of Aluminum Extrusion

Thermal Conductors

Aluminum conducts heat and cold better than other common metals, making extrusion ideal for applications requiring heat exchangers or heat dissipation. Aluminum does not burn and even at extremely high temperatures does not produce toxic fumes.  

Easily Tailored

While there are a variety of standard extrusion profiles available, the ability to design a profile to meet specific functional, aesthetic, and manufacturability objectives, makes aluminum extrusion a preferred choice.

 

Resilient

Aluminum combines strength with flexibility and can flex under loads and spring back from the shock of an impact. This is why extruded components are perfect for automotive crash management systems.

 

Corrosion Resistant

Due to its clear anodized coating for increased corrosion and wear resistance, aluminum does not rust.

 

Sustainable & Lightweight

Aluminum is recyclable, with no degradation in properties. Aluminum extrusion is often created with a high recycled content, without compromising aesthetics or functionality. It is about 1/3 the weight of steel, iron, brass, and copper.

 

Thermal & Electrical Conductivity

Aluminum is an excellent conductor of both heat and cold, making it ideal for a variety of industrial applications. Its low density also makes aluminum an excellent conductor of electricity.

 

Popular 80/20 Aluminum Extrusion Products

Part No. 1515

1.50” X 1.50” T-Slotted Profile - Four Open T-Slots

1515 is a 1.50” x 1.50” fractional 15 series square T-slot profile with four open T-slots, one on each 1.50” face. The profile has align-a-grooves to assist in alignment when connecting profiles. The 1515 profile is compatible with all 15 series fasteners. This profile is the most heavy-duty in the 1515 profile family and lends itself to clean room applications, guards, enclosures, or desks.

Part No. 1530

1.50” X 3.00” T-Slotted Profile - Six Open T-Slots

1530 is a 1.50” x 3.00” fractional 15 series rectangular T-slot profile with six open T-slots, two on each 3.00” face and one on each 1.50” face. The profile has align-a-grooves to assist in alignment when connecting profiles. The 1530 profile is compatible with 15 series fasteners. The center cavity of the profile can be pressurized up to 150 psi, lending itself to work spaces, machine guards, displays and panel mount racks.

Part No. 3030

3.00" X 3.00" T-Slotted Profile - Eight Open T-Slots

3030 is a 3.00” x 3.00” fractional 15 series square T-slot profile with eight open T-slots, two on each 3.00” face. The profile has align-a-grooves to assist in alignment when connecting profiles. The 3030 profile is compatible with 15 series fasteners and has a center cavity that can be pressurized up to 150 psi. The eight open T-slots, strength, and ability to pressurize this profile make it a great choice for automation applications, machine frames and workstations.

Part No. 4336

15 Series & Ready Tube 4 Hole - Tall Gusseted Inside Corner Bracket

1530 is a 1.50” x 3.00” fractional 15 series rectangular T-slot profile with six open T-slots, two on each 3.00” face and one on each 1.50” face. The profile has align-a-grooves to assist in alignment when connecting profiles. The 1530 profile is compatible with 15 series fasteners. The center cavity of the profile can be pressurized up to 150 psi, lending itself to work spaces, machine guards, displays and panel mount racks.

Part No. 4351

15 Series & Ready Tube 5 Hole - 90 Degree Angled Flat Plate

The 5 hole – 90 degree angled flat plate is an external fastening method that requires no machining services. This flat plate creates a 90-degree angle between profiles and its shape reinforces the strength of the connection. It is a durable option that is easy to assemble and can be reconfigured and reused. The suggested mounting hardware can be found on the “Suggested Hardware” tab. Tip: Use double or triple slide-in economy T-nuts to save time and money. Pre-load your hardware prior to connecting profiles to simplify your assembly.
