Overview

EN 755-9:2016 - published by CEN - specifies the dimensional and form tolerances for aluminium and aluminium-alloy extruded profiles (rod/bar, tube and profiles) whose cross section fits within a circumscribing circle up to 800 mm. The standard covers temper designations per EN 515 and is intended for general engineering applications. EN 755-9:2016 replaces EN 755-9:2008 and is produced by CEN/TC 132.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and sizing: Applies to extruded profiles with cross-sections contained in a circumscribing circle CD ≤ 800 mm.
• Alloy grouping: Alloys are divided into Group I and Group II according to manufacturing difficulty (tables list common alloys; other alloys by agreement).
• Cross‑sectional tolerances: Detailed tolerances for dimensions other than wall thickness (dimension H) are specified in tables that vary by alloy group and by circumscribing circle size.
• Wall thickness tolerances: Separate tolerances for wall types A, B, C (e.g., external walls, walls enclosing hollows, walls between hollows), provided in multiple tables depending on CD and alloy group.
• Open-end profiles: Additional allowances apply where profiles have open ends; Table 4 defines additions to H tolerances for open‑ended legs.
• Form tolerances: Requirements for straightness, convexity/concavity, contour, twist, angularity, corner and fillet radii are defined (subclauses 4.2–4.7).
• Length and cut: Tolerances on fixed lengths and squareness of cut ends are given (Table 9 for fixed length tolerances).
• Applicability: Tempers O and Tx510 require special agreement for some tolerances.

Applications and practical value

• Ensures consistent part interchangeability and fit for architectural, automotive, mechanical, and general engineering uses where extruded aluminium profiles are used as structural or machined components.
• Useful for manufacturers, extrusion mills, quality inspectors and procurement teams to:
  • Define contract tolerances in purchase orders
  • Verify compliance during inspection and delivery
  • Specify suitable alloys and tempers per manufacturing capability
• Helps reduce rework, improve assembly accuracy and support supplier–purchaser agreements on non‑standard shapes or tempers.

Who should use this standard

• Aluminium extruders and profile manufacturers
• Design and mechanical engineers specifying extruded profiles
• Quality control and inspection personnel
• Buyers and procurement professionals in industries using aluminium extrusions

Related standards

• EN 515 (temper designations)
• Other parts of EN 755 (Parts 1–8 cover inspection, mechanical properties and tolerances for bars and tubes)

3 Tolerances on dimensions
3.1 Cross-sectional dimensions
3.1.1 General
The tolerances on the dimensions listed below (see Figures 2, 3 and 4) are specified in the relevant
Tables 2 to 9.
— A: wall thicknesses except those enclosing the hollow spaces in hollow profiles;
— B: wall thicknesses enclosing the hollow spaces in hollow profiles except those between two hollow
spaces;
— C: wall thicknesses between two hollow spaces in hollow profiles;
— E: the length of the shorter leg of profiles with open ends;
— H: all dimensions (except wall thickness) between points on the cross section of the profile or the
centres of open screw holes. Between points on the outer contour to points inside a hollow
chamber so long as they are not identical to wall thickness B. Alternatively from the inside of a
hollow chamber to the inside of another hollow chamber so long as they are not identical to wall
thickness C and are not within the definition of dimension H. Such dimensions shall be replaced by
dimension H plus wall thickness B or C or shall be subject to agreement between supplier and
purchaser.
Figure 2 — Definition of dimensions A, B, C, E, H
3.1.2 Tolerances on dimensions other than wall thickness
The tolerances on dimensions shall be as specified in Tables 2 and 3. For profiles with open ends
(see Figures 3, 4 and the relevant examples) the tolerances specified in Table 4 shall be added to those
of Tables 2 and 3 for dimension H across open ended legs in order to obtain the tolerances on the gap
between any opposite points on these ends.
