Overview of Aluminum Channel

Features of Aluminum Channel

An aluminum channel is a structurally sound metal component that is made by the extrusion process to produce shapes, forms, and designs for a wide variety of applications. The major benefit of aluminum channels is their weight, which is one third the weight of steel without sacrificing durability and reliability.

Applications of Aluminum Channel

Aluminum U & J channels both offer a large range of applications across many industries. The most common uses for these types of channels include framing, tracks, slides, protective edges, railings, rails, rims, and decoration, to name just a few.
