Custom Aluminum Parts, Quoted From Your Drawing
We do not sell a catalogue. Every part below is made to a drawing. Aluminum parts run on one route — extruded profile, machined features, bead blast and anodize, inspected and shipped — while non-aluminum machined parts run on a precision machining route, with the same engineering team and the same inspection report either way. What changes between part types is which tolerance decides the price.
What we quote most often
Six families. One of them has its own page today; the rest are quoted from your drawing using the same process route.
Aluminum Enclosures
Appearance and structural housings for devices, machined to ±0.01 mm fits. Extruded 6063 body, machined end caps and ports, anodized finish.
View the enclosure pagePrecision Aluminum Enclosures
Thin-wall housings at 0.3 mm where hinge, port and lid tolerances are the hard part.
Quoted per drawing Ask about this part typeCustom Aluminum Profiles
Your cross-section, extruded to ±0.05 mm. Supplied cut to length or as a finished machined part.

Precision CNC Aluminum Parts
Bores, threads, sealing faces and pockets cut on extruded blanks or billet.
Quoted per drawing Ask about this part typeAluminum Heat Sinks
Integrated fins at 3–6 mm pitch, extruded with the body so there is no interface to conduct across.

Aluminum Tubes & Round Profiles
Round and shaped tubes for handles, barrels and cylindrical housings.

A quick filter before you open the drawing. Each row is what we normally run, not the only thing we can run.
| Part type | Typical alloy | Route | Tolerance or capability that decides cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enclosures | 6063-T5 / T6 | Extrude → CNC → bead blast → anodize | Machined features ±0.01 mm |
| Thin-wall housings | 6063-T6 | Extrude → staged CNC → anodize | Wall 0.3 mm, ±0.02 mm capability |
| Custom profiles | 6063, 6005A | Extrude → cut → optional CNC | Section ±0.05 mm |
| CNC parts | 6061-T6, 6063 | Extrude or billet → CNC | Feature position ±0.01 mm |
| Heat sinks | 6063-T5 | Extrude with fins → CNC faces | Fin pitch and base flatness |
| Tubes and round profiles | 6063-T5 | Extrude → CNC ends | Bore and OD ±0.04 mm |
| Machined parts (non-aluminum) | Stainless steel, brass, titanium, engineering plastics | Billet → CNC → finishing | Feature position ±0.01 mm |
Tubes are quoted on the end, not just the wall
A round profile is the simplest section we run and the one where the second operation decides the price. Tube ends are usually faced, bored and threaded to ±0.04 mm, and the bore is measured after the part has relaxed rather than straight off the tool.
- Diameter range and wall agreed at drawing review
- Bore and OD held to ±0.04 mm after machining
- Clear, black or custom anodized, colour approved on a chip
What makes a quote fast
A quote that arrives with questions attached is a quote you cannot use. These four answers remove almost every follow-up:
- Annual quantity — decides whether a die is justified
- Critical tolerances — one or two callouts, not the whole drawing
- Finish and colour — bead blast, anodize, chip approval
- Application — tells us which failure mode matters
No drawing? Describe what the part houses, its approximate size, wall thickness and annual volume. We will sketch the section and tell you whether it extrudes.
Not on this list?
Parts outside these six families are still worth a question. If the geometry suits extrusion and the volume justifies a die, it is the same process route.
If it does not — deep 3D pockets, undercut sections, walls below 0.3 mm — we will say so and propose a machined route instead of quoting something we cannot hold.
Send the Drawing You Already Have
STEP, IGES, DWG, DXF or PDF. Add the annual quantity and the one tolerance that matters most — that is enough to quote.
What to send
- 2D drawing or 3D model (STEP, IGES, DWG, DXF, PDF)
- Alloy and temper
- Surface finish and color
- Estimated annual quantity
