Aluminium profile

from $25.00
  • Sold in 3m Lengths

An aluminium profile (also called an aluminium LED profile or channel) is a housing system designed specifically for LED strip lighting.

It serves three main purposes:

  1. Heat dissipation
    The aluminium body acts as a heat sink, drawing heat away from the LED strip and releasing it into the surrounding air. This reduces operating temperature and helps extend the lifespan and performance of the LEDs.

  2. Protection
    The profile physically protects the LED strip from dust, moisture, and accidental damage.

  3. Light diffusion and aesthetics
    A frosted polycarbonate diffuser clips into the aluminium backing. This softens and evenly distributes the light, reducing glare and eliminating visible LED dots while giving a clean, professional finish.

Aluminium profiles are commonly used in architectural, commercial, and residential lighting applications such as under-cabinet lighting, shelving, coves, and linear feature lighting.
