Product Overview
Our 18×8.5mm LED aluminium profile is a compact and versatile solution for integrating LED strip lighting into homes, offices, and commercial spaces. Its low-profile design allows for seamless installation while delivering smooth, diffused illumination. Ideal for accent, task, or ambient lighting, this profile provides a professional, polished finish without overpowering the surrounding décor.
Perfect Applications
Under-Cabinet Lighting: Create functional and stylish task lighting in kitchens or workspaces.
Shelf Illumination: Highlight products, books, or decorative items with subtle, even light.
Backlighting: Add ambient lighting behind TVs, monitors, or feature walls to reduce eye strain.
Accent Features: Emphasize artwork, architectural details, or decorative wall elements.
Opal Diffuser Benefits
The opal diffuser softens the light for a smooth, uniform glow, minimizing spotting from individual LEDs. It slightly warms the colour temperature of the LED strip, providing a comfortable and visually appealing light.
Example: A 6000K LED strip producing 1000 lumens per metre will output roughly 5600K and 450–500 lumens per metre when installed in this channel with an opal diffuser.
Pro Tip: For a flawless, dot-free finish, pair the opal diffuser with LED strips of 120 LEDs per metre or more.
Key Features
Durable & Corrosion-Resistant: Made from fully anodised aluminium, suitable for indoor and damp environments like bathrooms when using IP-rated LED strips.
Simple Installation: Can be recessed or surface-mounted using optional brackets; end caps and mounting clips available.
Compact Design: Minimal yet effective, seamlessly integrates into modern interiors and commercial spaces.
The 18×8.5mm LED aluminium channel provides a stylish, durable, and professional solution for smooth, high-quality LED lighting.
