Key Features

U-Shaped Design

The U-shaped profile evenly distributes weight across construction frames and mechanical systems. Use it for:

  • Mounting glass balcony panels
  • Securing LED lighting strips
  • Protecting electrical wires in outdoor settings

Lightweight Strength

It weighs 60% less than steel while maintaining load-bearing capacity. Installers report 30% faster fitting compared to iron alternatives.

Corrosion-Resistant Material

Natural oxidation prevents rust in coastal areas, industrial sites, and high-moisture environments. Third-party tests show zero corrosion after 1,200 salt spray hours.

6xxx-series aluminum combines lightweight properties with oxidation resistance. These U-profiles withstand outdoor exposure without rusting, making them suitable for marine environments and industrial washdown areas.

4. Custom Sizing

Stock sizes range from 20mm x 15mm (1.5mm wall) to 60mm x 50mm (3mm wall). Request non-standard dimensions for specialized applications like conveyor systems or exhibition displays. Specify dimensions for:

  • Solar panel mounting systems
  • Window guide rails
  • Retail display frames
