An improved method is described for varying the profile as seen in cross section of an elongated extrudate article. The method provides for varying the profile of an extrusion orifice while an extrudate stock material is being forced through the orifice. An elongated extruded article is formed having a varying profile conforming to the variations in the profile of the extrusion orifice.

A method for extruding an elongated article having a profile which remains the same in at least one radial direction along its length and which may be varied in at least three other radial directions along its length comprising the steps of: forming an orifice in a fixed die member which is stationary in at least one radial direction and which may be varied in at least three other radial directions using a plurality of movable extrusion die members, forcing a thermoplastic extrudate stock material in flowable form through said orifice, and varying the position of at least two of said movable die members while forcing said stock material through said orifice thereby maintaining the profile the same in at least one radial direction while simultaneously varying the profile of the orifice in at least two other radial directions for forming an elongated extrudate article having a constant profile in at least one radial direction and a varying profile in at least two radial directions conforming to the varying profile of said orifice.
