Abstract
A container for use in a metal extrusion press has a longitudinal axis, the longitudinal axis being oriented generally horizontally and dividing the container into an upper portion and a lower portion when the container is in the use position. The container comprises: a mantle comprising an elongate body having an outer surface and an axial bore therein; an elongate liner accommodated within the axial bore, the liner comprising a longitudinally extending passage therein through which a billet is advanced; a first fluid channel adjacent an outer surface of the mantle, the first fluid channel being configured to direct a first fluid therethrough for cooling a first end of the container; and a second fluid channel adjacent an outer surface of the mantle, the second fluid channel being configured to direct a second fluid therethrough for cooling a second end of the container.
