What are LED Aluminum Profiles?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Led aluminum profiles, also known as Led\u00a0extrusions, are lightweight channels typically made from<\/p>\n

aluminium which are designed to house and protect kinds\u00a0of LED strip lights.<\/p>\n

They are\u00a0available in many different shapes, sizes and depths and can be installed in a variety of\u00a0ways.<\/p>\n

They often require a diffuser\/cover\u00a0for an even distribution of light,<\/p>\n

avoiding any unwanted\u00a0spotting effects that LED tape can sometimes cause.<\/p>\n

Many are made using fully anodized\u00a0corrosion-proof aluminium, making them ideal for use outdoors too.<\/p>\n

What types of led aluminum profiles are available?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"LED aluminium channels vary in terms of their profile shape and the way in which they are\u00a0installed.<\/p>\n

When choosing your aluminium profile the most important features to consider are:<\/p>\n

Shape:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Either rectangular, circular, corner.<\/p>\n

Be sure to make note of the maximum tape width\u00a0of each channel to ensure it is compatible with the LED tape you will be using.<\/p>\n

Depth:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0How deep do you need your channel to be? For installations where space is limited a\u00a0slim line profile would be most suitable.<\/p>\n

For those which use thicker LED tapes, a deeper\u00a0channel may be required to house the strip lighting.<\/p>\n

Installation:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Would you like your LED lighting to be surface mounted, suspended or\u00a0recessed (into tiles, plaster or into the ground)?<\/p>\n

Different Types of Profiles<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

You might hear the terms \u201cprofile,\u201d \u201cdie\u201d, and \u201cextrusion\u201d and wonder what the difference is between them.<\/p>\n

However, the truth is that they are all the same.<\/p>\n

The term \u201caluminum profile\u201d describes the shape that is made when the aluminum is pushed through the custom aluminum extrusion profile or die, which is made from strong metal to withstand the pressure that is put on it during the extrusion process.<\/p>\n

An \u201caluminum extrusion\u201d is the end result of the work that is done to create the parts, pieces, or products through the extrusion process. Some tubes are round, some are oval, a few are squared.<\/p>\n

The shape is the profile or die at the end of the tube that is used to create the shape of the toothpaste as it goes on your toothbrush.<\/p>\n

Choose a different shape, get a different result.<\/p>\n

The same holds true with aluminum extrusion design.<\/p>\n

Some of the shapes used in aluminum industry solutions for LED lighting include:<\/p>\n

shallow recessed extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

deep surface extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

tube surface extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

thin surface extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

deep recessed extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

shallow surface extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

corner extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

optic lens extrusion<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"Types of led aluminum profiles including:<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rectangular LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Also known as shaped\u00a0aluminium profiles, these\u00a0are the most commonly used channel in LED installations.<\/p>\n

They are available in a variety of\u00a0sizes and colours suitable for both home and commercial environments.<\/p>\n

Many are surface\u00a0mountable with screw-in brackets, however suspended and recessed varieties are available.<\/p>\n

Circular LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0With lighting angles varying from 180\u00ba to 360\u00ba\u00a0illumination, circular profiles are ideal for installations with a modern finish.<\/p>\n

Although many\u00a0circular profiles are best suited to surface mounting with brackets, some can be suspended\u00a0with cables to create light tubes.<\/p>\n

Corner LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Corner profiles\u00a0are designed to emit light at a 45\u00ba angle,<\/p>\n

making these channels ideal for under shelving units or in ceiling coffers.<\/p>\n

Surface LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Profiles which are installed via screw-in mounting\u00a0brackets are known as surface profiles,<\/p>\n

because they protrude above the surface on which\u00a0they are installed as opposed to being recessed into the surface.<\/p>\n

They are available in\u00a0rectangular, corner and circular varieties and are commonly used in furniture or retail\u00a0lighting.<\/p>\n

Suspended LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Some LED tape profiles feature the ability to be\u00a0suspended when installed with our suspension cabling.<\/p>\n

These profiles have special grooves\u00a0to accommodate for additional screws and corresponding steel suspension cabling kits\u00a0which are available for purchase at checkout.<\/p>\n

Waterproof LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Some LED tape profiles can achieve an IP rating of65 when sealed with silicone glue.<\/p>\n

Combined with their corrosion-proof anodized coating,these aluminium profiles are ideal for outdoor LED installations.<\/p>\n

Recessed LED Aluminium Profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Recessed profiles are those which sit flush with the\u00a0surface on which they are installed for a sleeker finish. They are available in various shapes,<\/p>\n

widths and depths and can be installed in three different ways:<\/p>\n

Standard Recessed LED profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0These require a hole to be cut into the wall or\u00a0furniture in which you wish to install it and have a trim to hold them in place.<\/p>\n

These\u00a0profiles can be used in many different materials and environments.<\/p>\n

Plaster-in Recessed LED profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0These trimless profiles are specifically
\ndeveloped for recessing into plastered walls and ceilings for an incredible seamless\u00a0diffused light output.<\/p>\n

They are available in both flat and corner varieties.<\/p>\n

Tile-in Recessed LED profiles:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Tile-in aluminium profile allows you to create\u00a0stunning modern lighting effect suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and other tiledareas.<\/p>\n

Due to the unique edge rim you can place standard depth tiles up to 10mm\u00a0width on top and seal the edges as you would do normally when tiling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What types of products are aluminium profiles compatible with?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

LED aluminium profiles are designed to house and protect runs of LED tape.<\/p>\n

Although\u00a0almost any tape can be installed into a profile that is wide and deep enough.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What are the benefits of using led aluminum profiles?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Installing LED tape in an aluminium profile is recommended due to the protective features the profile offers.<\/p>\n

As well as protecting the tape from general wear and tear,<\/p>\n

aluminium channel also acts as a heat sink which prevents the LED tape from overheating and thus prolonging its lifespan.<\/p>\n

Aluminium LED strip light extrusions\u00a0help to prevent contact damage if the LED tape is positioned within easy reach.<\/p>\n

And though they are not waterproof, extrusions can help prevent moisture.<\/p>\n

Aluminium channel also helps protect LED tape from the elements in
\noutdoor installations when sealed with a silicone glue thanks to it\u2019s anodized coating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What accessories are available?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

When installing LED tape into and aluminium profile, some accessories may be required.<\/p>\n

These include:<\/p>\n

LED profile diffuser<\/b><\/strong>: These are lengths of plastic which diffuse the light produced by the\u00a0LEDs,<\/p>\n

producing an even distribution of light. They are available in opal, semi-clear or\u00a0transparent varieties.<\/p>\n

LED Profile End caps<\/b><\/strong>: End caps are used to seal aluminium profiles.<\/p>\n

Sold in pairs, most\u00a0end caps come with one blank side and one with a hole to allow cable entry.<\/p>\n

They also help\u00a0prevent dust from entering the aluminium profile and damaging your LED strips.<\/p>\n

LED Profile Mounting Clips<\/b><\/strong>: Mounting brackets are used to secure aluminium profiles to a\u00a0surface.<\/p>\n

Simply screw the bracket onto a surface and clip in the profile.<\/p>\n

Sold in singles,although we recommend using 2 brackets per metre depending on the profile.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How to select the led aluminum profile in project?<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Selecting a channel:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"ledTo select an appropriate channel style, consider the installation.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0surface-mount channel\u00a0is an easy retrofit to an existing construction and can be affixed to a surface using metal clips (available separately) or double-sided tape.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0flush-mount channel\u00a0is a good option for new construction where a low-profile, flush-mounted light is desirable.<\/p>\n

The edges of the dado are concealed with the flanges on the channel (silicon\u00a0can be used to secure it if a friction fit is insufficient).<\/p>\n

The channel can also be surface-mounted using double-sided tape or metal clips (available separately).<\/p>\n

The\u00a0corner channel, designed to present lighting at a 45\u00b0 angle, is useful for projecting light against an adjacent surface.<\/p>\n

These channels are intended to be surface mounted only, using double-sided tape or metal clips (available separately).<\/p>\n

Selecting a diffuser:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

The diffusers\u00a0are available with frosted (translucent) or opal (milky) surface finishes.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0frosted diffuser\u00a0allows good light transmission, but the LED lights are somewhat visible.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0opal diffuser\u00a0provides more uniform light diffusion and good LED concealment.<\/p>\n

Note that each channel component is specific to the channel type; components cannot be interchanged.<\/p>\n

For example, diffusers and end caps for flush-mount channels cannot be fitted to surface-mount channels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
