Aluminium U Channel 27.5mm x 25mm x 1.2mm
Description
The 27.5mm x 25mm x 1.2mm aluminium U channel is a lightweight yet durable profile extruded from EN AW-6063 alloy in T5 temper, providing excellent corrosion resistance, smooth surface quality, and ease of machining. With its 27.5 mm base width and 25 mm leg height, it offers balanced coverage for framing and edging tasks, while the 1.2 mm wall thickness keeps it easy to work with and economical.
This U channel is commonly used in panel framing, display systems, furniture components, and architectural trim. It can be cut, drilled, and machined to meet specific design requirements.
Supplied in standard 6-metre lengths with a mill finish, it is also available with anodised or powder-coated finishes for improved durability and aesthetic appeal.
➤ Minimum order quantity: 500 kg.
