Product Information
A technical aluminium profile for linear lighting projects, delivered in 1 m length. Designed as a profile/moulding for LED strip integration, it offers two positioning options for aiming and tidy cable management.
This profile is engineered to house and protect LED strip lighting, enabling clean, continuous lines of light in indoor environments. Built in aluminium, it contributes to heat dissipation and structural rigidity while keeping the strip aligned. Its two-position design allows the light line to be oriented to suit the task or surface, improving visual comfort and project flexibility. The product comes in 1 m sections to simplify transport and alignment across furniture or architectural details.
It is intended for strip integration and comes with a visible diffuser cover in the images, ensuring a softer visual result and physical protection of the tape. Installation is specified for surface mounting, which speeds up fitting on panels, shelves or carcasses without complex recessing. The channel is compatible with standard LED tape formats within the stated width range. With this configuration, the profile supports robust installation, neat integration, reliable compatibility with LED tape and durable protection of the lighting run.
As a profile/moulding, its role is to integrate the LED strip neatly into the architecture, guiding the light line and protecting the tape. In indoor projects, it suits linear highlights and task areas where a defined beam orientation is useful because the body offers two mounting positions. For shelving or joinery, it helps create consistent edges and tidy wiring thanks to its surface-mount design that avoids complex recessing.
Project conditions focus on indoor use, direct compatibility with LED strips and the physical robustness of aluminium construction. The diffuser shown helps control glare and protects the tape from incidental contact, supporting comfortable viewing in day-to-day use. Overall, it provides a straightforward route to continuous linear lighting, clean integration with furnishings and dependable mounting that respects the dimensions and constraints of standard LED tape systems.
Fitting material: Aluminium; Permitted LED strip width: 8 mm; Length: 1 m; Certificates: RoHS.
Install the profile on the mounting surface following the indicated system, ensuring straight alignment along the run. Fit the LED strip inside the channel, observing the width compatibility and keeping the tape firmly seated for good thermal contact. Position the body in the desired of its two orientations to direct the beam, then place the cover as shown to protect the installation. Cable entries should remain accessible for service and kept clear of sharp edges.
Routine maintenance involves occasional cleaning of the diffuser and checking the seating of the strip and end caps. Avoid solvents or abrasive products when wiping the cover. For electrical work or reconfiguration, always isolate the supply and verify polarity at the driver and tape terminals. Disconnect the power supply before adjustments or component replacement. Disconnect the power supply before any intervention.
