Aluminium U Channel 36mm x 30mm x 1.8mm
Description
The 36mm x 30mm x 1.8mm aluminium U channel is a durable, precision-extruded profile produced from EN AW-6063 alloy in T5 temper, offering excellent corrosion resistance, dimensional accuracy, and smooth surface quality. Its 36 mm base width and 30 mm leg height provide generous coverage and support, while the 1.8 mm wall thickness ensures a strong yet manageable weight profile for various applications.
This U channel is ideal for panel framing, edge protection, display systems, and architectural trim in both commercial and industrial projects. It can be easily cut, drilled, and machined to suit custom fabrication needs.
Supplied in standard 6-metre lengths with a mill finish, anodising or powder coating is available on request for enhanced durability and aesthetic appeal.
➤ Minimum order quantity: 500 kg.
➤ Worldwide delivery via road, sea, or air freight.
