Aluminum provides unique advantages in extrusion over other metals. Getec Industrial, a thermal management solutions company, provides the details on how aluminum is the best choice.

Torrance, CA -- (SBWire) -- 11/30/2015 --The properties of aluminum provides a designer with several advantages. In aluminum extrusions, the fabrication process is an economical way to extrude parts for many different industries.

1. Saving money is one of the main reasons clients choose aluminum for extrusions over other metals. Fabricating shapes by welding costs are more than aluminum extrusions because each part is welded individually. Compared to using a custom aluminum extrusion company, roll forming, mold casting, and welding costs are higher.

When using aluminum extrusion, a die is inexpensive and only costs a set amount for a specific shape. These shapes can be used over and over again. Certain shapes clients use more often are kept in stock and used across many industries.

2. Aluminum forms extruded shapes easily. The metal is melted and squeezed through a die to form the shape.

3. Speeds are high when machined and can reach up to 600 to 700 surfaces per minute.

4. The weight of aluminum is light, which allows it to be used in certain applications where weight is an issue. It's weight is one-third that of copper, brass, and steel.

5. The property of aluminum is corrosion resistant. It has a thin film that self protects it from corrosion.

6. Aluminum has high conductivity for electricity. It carries two times the current as copper.

7. For thermal management solutions, aluminum conducts and reflects heat. It is widely used in heat transfer applications and used as a heat shield when it's needed to reflect light.

As a thermal management solutions company, Getec provides pure aluminum billet casting for all services. The ratio of pure aluminum ingot materials is higher than companies who use scrap aluminum.

"We have a high standard for excellence and take our product performance seriously," said Senior VP and COO, Hart Cardozo, III.
