These different cross-section are produced by pushing aluminum through a die, a molding piece somewhat like a stencil! By varying the pattern produced, the aluminum can be used for wide range of purposes.

Advantages
The process of extruding aluminum is easy, versatile and extremely low cost – giving rise of a myriad of product design possibilities which can be tweaked for different purposes. While providing the masses with greater options, the process does not compromise on the material strength and durability; these aluminum are equally strong structurally.
