The extrusion behaviour of a series of magnesium alloys was investigated and compared to a common aluminium alloy using limit diagrams. The variation in the limits was related to the different flow stress and solidus temperature of each alloy. The findings of this work have enabled predictions of the relative extrudability of new prototype alloys
