At Minalex, we don’t just manufacture miniature aluminum extrusions; we build long-term partnerships around precision, responsiveness, and trust. Whether you need high volume, low volume, custom profiles, or demanding tolerances, our role is the same: deliver what you specified, when you need it, with the consistency your program depends on.
“Manufacturing Precision Partnerships” isn’t a slogan for us. It’s how we work; by listening closely, understanding the real requirements behind your drawings, and responding with engineering support and disciplined execution. Well into our second half-century, our strongest measure of success is the number of customers who count on us year after year.
Minalex is a family-owned company built on high standards and a hands-on, experienced team. For more than sixty years, we’ve supported customers ranging from global manufacturers to local businesses, earning our reputation through consistent quality and dependable delivery.
As we’ve grown, we’ve expanded our services and capabilities to provide complete, responsive, turnkey solutions. That means we can support your project across every phase, from design and extrusion through fabrication and finish, with fewer handoffs and greater accountability.
We also keep the process moving with fast, thorough estimating and tight production turnaround, without sacrificing the controls that protect quality.
We’re proud to be a customer-focused, “can-do” extrusion partner, built to take your specifications from concept to finished part quickly and efficiently.
Minalex is the first choice for close tolerance aluminum extrusions for heat pipes, heat sinks and header bars whose intricate designs and close tolerances are required for maximum performance.
Precision achieved in larger profile custom aluminum extrusions is possible up to 3.500 inches (8.89 cm) in circle size. We regularly produce close tolerance extrusions up to 1.500 pounds per foot (2.2322 kg per meter). Our precision capabilities are just as effective at 3.500 inches (8.89 cm) as they are at 0.020 inches (0.4572 mm).
