Tolerances Booklet
The Tolerances booklet is a useful book in pocket size. It covers standards EN 755-9 and EN12020-2 for the extrusion of aluminium.
EN 755-9
Covers the tolerances on dimensions and shapes for all extruded aluminium profiles in all applied alloys.
EN 12020-2
Covers more precise standard tolerances on dimensions and shapes, realizable with the most applied alloys, namely 6060 and 6063
Closer tolerances
Closer tolerances than the prescribed standard tolerances are possible for both EN 755-9 and EN 12020-2. But they have to be fixed in close collaboration with Sapa.
