Specifications

• Dimensions: 15.6 x 23.5mm
• Max Tape Width: 20mm or two 10mm wide LED strip lights
• Material: Anodised aluminium 

 

Applications:

• Retail Displays: In stores, a chunky aluminium channel can help showcase products by providing strong, diffused lighting on shelves or display cases.
• Under-Cabinet Lighting: In kitchens, these channels can be installed to provide bright and uniform illumination on countertops.
• Commercial Spaces: In office settings, they can be used for task lighting over workstations or general ambient lighting in meeting rooms.
• Home Interiors: Beyond kitchen cabinets, chunky profiles can be used for cove lighting, around mirrors, or even as a modern design element in living rooms.
• Outdoor and Garden: For garden pathways, patios, or deck lighting, the chunky profile provides durability and ensures longevity against outdoor elements.

Additional information:

• Semi clear and opal diffusers available
• End caps and mounting brackets sold separately

 

A Chunky Aluminium Channel of 25mm x 16.8mm dimensions provides a robust and durable profile for LED strip installations. The term "chunky" refers to its relatively large and sturdy size compared to many other profiles.

 

Aluminium serves as an excellent heat sink. The chunky nature of this profile offers more surface area, allowing for better heat dissipation, which in turn can prolong the life of the LED strips.

 

The channel provides a physical barrier that protects the LED strip from being touched, bumped, or exposed to contaminants. This is especially beneficial in environments where the LEDs might be exposed to potential damage. 

 

Hints and tips:

Diffusers

Diffusers will affect the brightness and CCT (colour temperature) of an LED tape when housed in a LED channel or profile. 

 

• Semi-Clear Diffuser: 70-75% of the brightness of the installed LED strip light will shine through
• Opal Diffuser: 45-50% of the brightness of the installed LED strip light will shine through

 

As well as the brightness, diffusers will also alter the kelvin temperature of the installed LED strip light by approximately 10%. Opal diffusers will make the kelvin temperature/CCT appear warmer, semi clear diffusers will make the Kelvin Temperature/CCT appear cooler and transparent diffusers will have no effect.

 

As an example, a 6000K 1000 lumen per metre LED strip light installed inside a metre length of LED channel using an opal diffuser would create a light bar with an overall output of approximately 5600K and 450 to 500 lumens.

 

Non-spotting finish

To achieve a highly desired non spotting finish, consider using this profile with an LED that has 120 LEDs per metre or more and consider using an opal diffuser. As a rule of thumb, the more LEDs per metre on your chosen strip light, the less chance there will be of a spotting/dotting effect.

Perfect for indoor and outdoor environments. 

This profile is made from fully anodized aluminium and is corrosion proof making it suitable for damp or wet environments when used with an IP67 rated LED strip light.
