A manufacturing process that utilizes a softened billet of material which is forced through a shape (or die) to allow for a continuous form much like spaghetti
A moulding of vinyl or metal made by pushing material through a mold to create shaped lineal pieces Extrusions are used in many applications such as weatherstripping, double hung jamb liner (vinyl) and the aluminum cladding used on the exterior of clad units
The compacting of a plastic material and forcing of it through an orifice in more or less continuous fashion
The process of producing vinyl or aluminum shapes by forcing heated material through an orifice in a die Also, any item made by this process
A shaped piece of metal (typically nonferrous), produced by forcing the bloom, bar, or rod through a die of appropriate shape
a method whereby heated or unheated plastic forced through a shaping orifice becomes one continuously formed piece
squeezing out by applying pressure; "an unexpected extrusion of toothpaste from the bottom of the tube"; "the expulsion of pus from the pimple
The process of producing aluminum shapes by forcing heated metal through an orifice in a die by means of a pressure ram Also, any item made by this process
the method of processing plastic by forcingheat softened plastic through an opening of the desired shape of the cross-section of the finished product
Refers to the result of forcing molten metal or plastic through a die or mold to form a specific shape Commonly refers to shower door components such as jambs and headers which were created by extrusion
Process by which polymer is propelled continuously along a screw through regions of high temperature and pressure where it is melted and compacted, and finally forced through a die (slit) to form a thin film
One of the basic methods of shaping molten plastic resins Likened to squeezing toothpaste, extrusion involves solid resins melting as a screw pushes them through a heating chamber The opening through which the resins are forced gives the product its form, resulting in consistent thickness and gauge control
