Minalex regularly produces extrusions with tolerances as tight as +/- .001" on one or more dimensions of an extrusion, depending on the shape. This unique ability allows design engineers to specify extrusions in situations where close tolerances are required. The benefits of close tolerance extrusions are that they perform better, fit together more securely and usually eliminate the need for expensive machining.
0.018" Walls
Walls as thin as .018" are also possible on one or more of
the dimensions of an extrusion, depending on the shape. As the trend toward miniaturization
and design simplicity continues, your need for a dependable supplier of precision extrusions
will surely increase.
0.060" Holes
Few extruders would accept a challenge of .060" holes
with +/- .002" tolerances, and some of them would give the project to Minalex. They know,
as the industry knows, that Minalex is the right source for the cost-effective production
of close tolerance extrusions up to a 3 1/2" circle size.
