This document specifies tolerances on dimensions and form of extruded precision profiles in alloys EN AW-6060 and EN AW-6063, manufactured with and without a thermal barrier (see Figures 1 and 2). It applies to extruded products supplied without further surface treatment. Precision profiles covered in this document are distinguished from extruded profiles for general applications covered in EN 755-9 by the following characteristics:
- they are designed with mostly uniform wall-thicknesses;
- they are mainly used for mechanical engineering, architectural and automotive (except crash-elements) applications;
- their maximum weight per metre is 10 kg/m;
- their maximum wall thickness ratio (tmax/tmin) is 3,5.
In the case of profiles which, due to the complexity of their design, are difficult to manufacture and specify, then special agreements between supplier and purchaser may need to be reached.
NOTE The effect of the thermal barrier material on the dimensional tolerances is covered by this document although the actual thermal barrier material itself is not (see EN 14024).

NOTE   Three main methods exist for the manufacture of drawing stock:
a)   continuously cast rod (CCR):
   a section is cast continuously in the groove of a wheel, the groove being closed by an endless strip;
   the solid and still hot section is rolled in a multistand rolling mill to the required diameter;
   the drawing stock rod thus produced is wound continuously to form coils up to 4 t in mass;
b)   hot rolled rod (HRR):
   a wirebar of diameter approximately 100 mm to 150 mm is heated and rolled to the required diameter;
   the coils, weighing up to approximately 100 kg are butt welded together and wound to form coils with mass of 1 t to 4 t;
c) hot extruded rod (HER):
   coils up to 100 kg can be produced in a single fibre without butt welds (depending on the size of the extrusion press);
   coils over 100 kg are normally produced by block on block extrusion, generating "Zweiwachs"-joints. For mechanical applications (i.e fasteners) the "Zweiwachs" area should be marked.
