2 Company ProfileThe aluminium extrusion business of Hulamin Extrusions was founded 40 years ago by Hulett Extrusions have production plants in Olifantsfontein, Pietermaritzburg and a sales office in Cape Town. Our expertise and reputation emanates from our diverse shareholder background which includes Alcan - the founding company. Huletts Corporation - who acquired the majority shareholding from Alcan in Hulett - Huletts Corporation merged with the Tongaat Group in 1981 and the name was changed to Hulett Aluminium in 1982. Alcan subsequently sold its remaining 26% shareholding and Hulett Aluminium became a wholly owned subsidiary of Tongaat Hulett in Aluminium Extrusions - one of the world's leading extruders became a shareholder in the extrusion division during the period 1997 to 2008. Hulamin Extrusions - in June 2007 Hulamin listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and subsequently Hulett-Hydro Extrusions changed its name to Hulamin 2008 Hulamin acquired the Hydro Aluminium shareholding to become the sole shareholder of Hulamin Extrusion's customer base covers all the major market segments in the Southern African market, extending into the demanding engineering markets within the United Kingdom, Europe and North America.

This system allows quality management from an initial contract review through to product shipment. Laboratory facilities are also available to assist with quality assurance and any necessary metallurgical Extrusions also boast the prestigious ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Systems accreditation, proudly looking after our environment and promoting the recycling of aluminium and other process Extrusions Standard Profile CatalogueHow to order 5 The Properties of Aluminium 6 Alloys 7 Technical Grade11 Manufacturing Limits11 Dimensions12 Lengths12 General12 Forms of Corrosion13 Corrosion Resistance in Different Environments14 Surface Treatment14 Extruded Rods27 Extruded Tubes28 Square Bars35 Hexagonal Bars35 Rectangular Hollows36 Square Hollows39I - Sections41 TeesType 142 Type 243Z - Sections43 Engineering Data for Structural Shapes44 AngleType 144 Type 247 Type 348 Type 449 Type 553 ChannelType 155 Type 259 Type 360I - Sections62 TeesType 163 Type 264 Index65 AnglesType 115 Type 216 Type 316 Type 417 Type 519 Type 620 Type 1320 ChannelsType 121 Type 224 Type 324 Type 425 Type 525 Type 725 Type 1126 Flat BarsType 131

Unless otherwise stated, orders for production by Hulamin Extrusions will be subject to a mass or piece quantity tolerance of 10%.Supply of an exact number of pieces or other shipping tolerances closer than those stated will be subject to enquiry, and may incur a price requirementsOrders should be clearly detailed with any special acceptable quantities per itemThe process is such that a minimum length of extrusion emerges from the extrusion cycle. This results in certain minimum quantities being readily produced.

5 All enquiries will be handled by our sales offices who will advise on minimum quantities. A price premium is applied to smaller masses shown for sections in this Catalogue are for guidance and may vary slightly according to the alloy and the dimensional accuracy achieved when produced and within the permissible over-shipment is not permissible the order shall be endorsed Do not over-ship mass (or Pieces as is applicable) in whichcase an under-shipment of 10% may be drawing number/die number part number where applicable lengths special tolerances finishing requirements - painting and anodising (type, colour and micron thickness of anodising) whilst the exact finishing and anodising perimeters are shown, the price for painting/anodising might be based on a minimum finishing perimeterfabrication related specification details to ensure material conforms to detailed requirements Additional information:End use:Brief detail on end use of material Delivery requirements.

7 (8,400 kg/m)ElasticityThe Young's modulus for aluminium (E=69 000 MPa) is a third that of steel. This means that the moment of inertia has to be three times as great for an aluminium extrusion to achieve the same deflection as a steel can be joined using all the normal methods avail-able such as welding, brazing, adhesive bonding and resistanceA thin layer of oxide is formed when exposed to air. This pro-vides very good protection against corrosion even in corrosive environments. This layer can be further strengthened by sur-face treatments such as anodising or powder thermal and electrical conductivities are excellent, even when compared with copper. Furthermore, an aluminium conductor has only half the weight of an equivalent copper expansionAluminium has a relatively high coefficient of linear expan-sion compared to other metals.

Extrusions of the right alloy and design can be as strong as structural has good formability in both hot and cold condition, a characteristic that is used in full in the extrusion process.

Aluminium makes it possible to give the product suitable physical and mechanical properties at the same time as achieving an aesthetically attractive , the extrusion technique, combined with the number of application opportunities. It also forms the basis for product improvement. Pure aluminium is only used in a limited way commercially. The majority of extrusions are made from aluminium alloyed with other metals. sions for windows and doors, lighting, awnings, handrails and furniture. This material is highly suitable for anodising, both for decorative and protective 6005 alloy has higher strength than 6063 but is slightly harder to extrude. The material withstands comparatively little elon-gation before there is permanent deformation in the heat treated condition.
