Extrusion magnesium alloys have a special feature. Their compressive proof strength is smaller than tensile proof strength. After forming, Extrusion magnesium alloys have a stringy texture in the deformation direction, which increases the tensile proof strength. In compression the proof strength is smaller because of twinning, which happens more easily in compression than in tension in magnesium alloys because of the hexagonal lattice structure.

We can supply magnesium extrusions in rods, bars, solid shapes, structural shapes, wires, tubes, hollow shapes and semi-hollow shapes. Alloys available: AZ31B, AZ31S, AZ61A, AZ80A, AZ91D.

Variety of standard alloys and forms as well as many special shapes tailored to a customers particular requirements.
