Process

Where are your products manufactured?

New Age Industrial is located in Norton, KS. We manufacture our products inside of our 300,000 square foot facility. We take great pride in developing our products from billet to box, and about 90% of our parts and accessories are purchased from other American manufacturers. 

What is aluminum billet?

The raw aluminum billet we utilize are a solid, cylindrical shape and weigh 60 pounds apiece. This billet is extruded into different shapes. We process over 4,000,000 pounds of primary aluminum billet each year. 

What does extrude mean?

We extrude, cut, fabricate, weld, and package every product under one roof, right here in Norton, Kansas. A gas-fired furnace pre-heats the 60-pound aluminum billet to 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, the billet is heated to 1100 degrees Fahrenheit and pushed through an extrusion press. Shapes are formed using hollow and solid dies. Extruding is one of our greatest manufacturing advantages. It gives us control over product design, material size, shape, and quantity.

What is a die?

Extrusion dies are thick, circular disks that come in a variety of shapes. Heated aluminum billet is pressed through the dies to mold desired shapes and sizes. We have over 1,000 hollow and solid dies in stock.
