Aluminum U-Profile 20mm milky, EUROLITE 51210866, 2m

EUROLITE Aluminum U-Profile 20mm milky is a 2 m extrusion designed for mounting and protecting 20 mm LED strips while delivering diffused, even illumination. The profile combines a lightweight aluminum channel with a milky diffuser that softens LED point sources and creates a continuous light line. It provides a neat finished edge for furniture, cabinets, display cases and architectural details, and helps with heat dissipation from the LED strip.

Advantages

The aluminum channel offers structural support and thermal conduction, extending the lifespan of installed LED strips. The milky cover produces uniform light with reduced glare and visible hotspots. The 20 mm internal width fits standard wide LED strip types and allows for easy insertion and removal. Its 2 m length suits longer runs and can be cut to size on site for custom installations.

How to use

Measure and cut the aluminum profile to the required length with an appropriate saw, keeping cuts square for neat end fittings. Insert the LED strip into the channel, align the strip centrally on the base, and secure it using the adhesive backing of the LED strip or additional mounting clips if needed. Snap or slide the milky diffuser into the channel to protect the LEDs and achieve a softened light output. Fix the profile to the mounting surface using screws through pre-drilled holes or with mounting brackets appropriate to the substrate.

Recommendations

For optimal thermal performance and LED longevity, ensure firm contact between the LED strip and the aluminum base; avoid installing higher-power strips without verifying heat dissipation requirements. Use end caps and mounting accessories to protect the strip and create a finished appearance. When cutting the diffuser or channel, deburr edges to prevent damage to the LED strip during installation.
