Thermalex, Incorporated

Thermalex extrudes high precision / tight tolerance thin-walled aluminum alloy extrusions for automotive, truck, industrial, commercial and residential air conditioning (HVAC) and electronic thermal heat transfer applications.A wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Aluminum since 2008, Thermalex aluminum products are prized in our global markets by high tech customers who engineer higher efficiency and superior corrosion resistant thermal transfer product solutions. Our customers have advanced their heat transfer product technologies over older, traditional copper tube-in-fin coils by using Thermalex Micro-Flow aluminum multi-void/microchannel extrusions with brazed aluminum heat exchangers, such as condensers and evaporators for HVAC as well as automotive OEM and aftermarket products.

Thermalex quality and environmental management systems are registered, certified and maintained by NSF International Strategic Registrations (NSF-ISR). Thermalex was initially certified with ISO-9002 registration standard in 1994 and QS-9000 in 1998. Current registrations are TS-16949 since 2007 and ISO-14001 since 2014.

Since 1985, Thermalex has been extruding complicated aluminum heat transfer shapes. Mitsubishi Aluminum’s parent role in Thermalex constitutes not only ownership, but also active world-renowned metallurgical and extrusion die expertise. Thermalex has become a symbol of world leadership in the extrusion of precision aluminum shapes. Our pioneering work in the automotive and commercial/residential markets continues.

Five state-of-the-art high capacity extrusion presses produce some of the world’s most intricate and challenging profiles, to the most rigid tolerance specifications of our highly technical thermal transfer customers. A dedicated extrusion press serves parallel flow brazed aluminum microchannel heat exchanger demand for the commercial and residential products of the HVAC industry. Old copper tube heat transfer technologies are just not able to compete with the new thermal transfer capabilities of Thermalex Micro-Flow extruded aluminum tubing. Today’s HVAC demands for higher efficiency and smaller, lower cost products are a key driver for this new Thermalex microchannel market.Extrusions are available in Aluminum Association Alloys as well as Thermalex long life alloys and supplied as either cut-to-length or level-wound extruded coils.Thermalex strives to provide the finest Micro-Tube Extrusions by constant improvement in processes and extrusion efficiencies. This is accomplished by using “Continual Improvement Techniques” in procurement, engineering, production, maintenance, customer service and shipping practices.

We support this vision with the following values and principles:

• Operate according to all governmental regulations and company policies
• Provide regular safety training, routine safety inspections and maintain open communication concerning safety issues
• Investigate all accidents and near misses in an effort to drive continuous improvement
• Take a personal approach to safety
• Achieve production, quality, and shipping goals while maintaining a “work safely” attitude
