Small scale aluminium tubes manufacturing

Engineering Asked by Antoine Mayer on May 16, 2021

Our startup needs short aluminuim tubes (max. ~70 cm [~27.5 inches] long / less than 1 cm / 0.4 inch diameter) such as these:

Aluminium tubes

We’d prefer to manufacture them ourselves rather than buy them from a s

Are there small scale solutions (machines, etc.) that would allow us to do this?

One Answer

There are some smaller extruders out there. You say less than .4", the standard OD's should be easy to find (.188", .250" and .375"). If you're needing something other than those, it's going to get pricey quick. Our biggest customers get the biggest price break, but those are major tier 1 automotive parts suppliers ordering 5 million+ pounds per year. If you're only needing a few pounds, it may be difficult to find an extruder. We sell tons (literally) to distributors all over the nation. You might search for aluminum tube distributors.
