Aluminium U Channel 15mm x 15mm x 2mm
Description
The 15mm x 15mm x 2mm aluminium U channel is a durable, precision-extruded profile manufactured from EN AW-6063 alloy in T5 temper. Its equal leg height and 2 mm wall thickness provide a solid balance between rigidity and manageable weight, making it suitable for both structural and decorative applications.
Common uses include panel edging, framing, architectural trims, display systems, and protective enclosures. This profile is easy to cut, drill, and machine, allowing for flexible adaptation in custom projects.
Supplied in 6-metre standard lengths with a smooth mill finish, it can also be anodised or powder coated for improved corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal.
➤ Minimum order quantity: 500 kg.
➤ Worldwide delivery via road, sea, or air freight.
