    Yes, some yards will classify it as extrusion, but I have never seen an extrusion price here, only sheet... That will depend on your yard.

    If the yard has only one grade your getting ripped of.

    I understand this completely, but it is how it is here. I don't have short iron or heavy iron prices either. It's very simplified in terms of categories, but I'm fine with that.. Makes sorting have less buckets. Cast Aluminum and sheet aluminum are usually the same prices, and often get weighed together, thrown into a gaylord together and called good.

    Aluminum Extrusion by me as well. Over the last 4 years price has been as high as .75 and as low as .29 a pound
    Dirty, Furnace, Irony, Smelter Alum. High as .40 and low of .15 a pound
