Taber Extrusions holds AS9100C and ISO 9001 certifications and has received Boeing Gold Supplier status and BAE Systems’ Gold Medallion — recognizing its compliance with the quality, traceability, and repeatability standards required for mission-critical aerospace and defense programs. Large-scale aluminum extrusion programs for these sectors typically require AS9100, customer-specific qualification requirements, and full material traceability.

Large-profile extrusion, such as the profiles produced on Taber Extrusions’ 10,000-ton press, allows multiple components to be redesigned into a single extruded part. This reduces welding, fastening, and secondary machining operations, lowering assembly complexity, reducing failure points, and improving structural performance across defense, aerospace, and transportation programs.

Taber Extrusions’ 10,000-ton press with a 16-inch rectangular container enables production of significantly larger and more complex aluminum profiles than conventional extrusion systems, including wider cross-sections, multi-void geometries, and long continuous shapes at tight tolerances. This capability is especially valuable for replacing fabricated or multi-part assemblies with a single extruded component, reducing weight and assembly complexity in aerospace and defense applications.
