Custom Aluminum, Stainless Steel & Brass Extrusions
American Stainless can provide you with custom stainless steel, aluminum, and brass extrusions. Please contact our sales team for more information regarding your requirements so we can create a solution that provides high-quality products and exceptional value for your production requirements.
Our custom extrusion process allows for complex, non-standard profiles that traditional machining or milling cannot achieve cost-effectively. By pushing material through a custom-designed die, it creates “near-net” shapes that drastically reduce secondary machining time.
- Design Freedom: Achieve complex hollows, T-slots, and asymmetric profiles.
- Reduced Waste: Extrusions utilize material more efficiently than subtractive machining from heavy plate or bar.
- Surface Integrity: Our hot and cold extrusion processes provide a consistent surface finish and improved mechanical properties.
- Available Materials: Custom profiles in 304/L, 316/L, 17-4PH, and specialized Nickel alloys.

High-Strength Custom Forgings
When structural integrity is non-negotiable, custom forging is the answer. Unlike casting, which can be porous, forging physically deforms the metal, aligning the grain flow to the contour of the part. This results in a component with significantly higher impact strength and fatigue resistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order quantity for custom stainless steel extrusions?
Custom extrusions require a one-time tooling charge for the die. We specialize in helping customers move from prototype volumes to full-scale production. Contact our team to review your CAD drawings for a tooling quote.
How do custom extrusions help reduce my overall production costs?
Custom extrusions are “near-net shapes,” meaning the metal is already formed very close to your final design. This saves you money in two ways: you buy less raw material (reduced scrap), and you spend significantly fewer hours on a CNC machine cutting away excess metal. It’s an upfront investment in tooling that pays for itself through lower part-to-part costs.
What information do you need to provide a quote for a custom profile?
To give you an accurate quote, we typically need a PDF or CAD drawing (like a .DWG or .STEP file) showing the dimensions, the specific stainless steel grade, and your estimated annual usage. Knowing the quantity helps us determine the most cost-effective manufacturing process for your volume.
