Companies ServedFast, Reliable, and Cost-Effective Extrusion Solutions for Your Needs
Extrusion is a manufacturing process where a material is forced through a die to create long shapes with a consistent cross-section. It is widely used for both metals (like aluminum) and plastics. At RAPIDMFG, we offer customized aluminum and plastic extrusion services tailored to meet the specific requirements of each client. Whether you need a unique shape, precise dimensions, or specific surface treatments, our team is equipped to handle complex extrusion projects.

Aluminum extrusion is the process of shaping aluminum metal by forcing it through a die at high temperatures. The aluminum is heated to a plastic state and then pushed through the die to form profiles with precise dimensions. This process is widely used due to aluminum’s strength, lightweight nature, and corrosion resistance. Extruded aluminum products are known for their excellent durability, making them ideal for use in a variety of industries, from automotive to construction.
Aluminum extrusions offer a wide range of finishing options that enhance the material’s performance, appearance, and durability. These finishes not only improve the aesthetic quality of aluminum profiles but also provide protection against corrosion, wear, and environmental factors. At RAPIDMFG, we provide various finishing techniques to meet the specific needs of your project, ensuring that every extrusion delivers optimal functionality and visual appeal.
Anodizing is an electrochemical process that enhances the natural oxide layer of aluminum. This process not only increases the material's resistance to corrosion but also allows for the application of vibrant colors, making it ideal for architectural, automotive, and consumer products.
Powder coating provides a durable and attractive finish. This process involves applying a dry powder that is then cured under heat. The result is a tough, scratch-resistant surface that is available in a variety of colors and textures, offering excellent protection against wear, chemicals, and weather conditions.
Polishing aluminum extrusions creates a high-gloss finish that enhances the metal’s natural shine. This process is often used for decorative applications, giving aluminum a smooth, mirror-like surface that is perfect for high-end products.
A brushed finish gives aluminum extrusions a distinctive, textured surface with fine lines running in one direction. This finish is often used for architectural or interior design applications, as it offers a subtle aesthetic that is both modern and stylish.
Laser marking allows for precise and permanent marks on the surface of aluminum extrusions. This technique is often used for product identification, logos, and serial numbers, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
This coating process applies a thin layer of protection to aluminum extrusions without altering the material’s appearance. Alodine, or chromate conversion coating, is commonly used in aerospace and military industries due to its excellent corrosion resistance and ability to provide a solid base for additional coatings.
Aluminum window frames, curtain walls, and structural components.
Lightweight parts like heat exchangers, frames, and structural elements.
Heat sinks, housings, and enclosures for electronic devices.
High-strength structural components and parts for the aerospace industry.

Extruded aluminum products are known for their excellent durability, making them ideal for use in a variety of industries, from automotive to construction.
Plastic extrusion, on the other hand, uses the same general process but with various types of plastic materials such as PVC, ABS, and polyethylene. These materials are melted and formed into continuous profiles that are then cut to desired lengths. Plastic extrusion is used to create items like piping, insulation, seals, and various consumer products, offering flexibility, durability, and cost-efficiency.
Packaging: Tubing, films, and containers for various industries.
Automotive: Electrical insulation, trim, seals, and gaskets.
Construction: Profiles for window frames, weather stripping, and electrical conduits.
Medical: Medical tubing and other specialty components.
