Bachmann STEP ALU 6x UTE GST18 France – 6-Socket Aluminium Power Strip with GST18 Input, 230V/16A, 3680W, Silver/Black

In a busy French office, a team of six needs reliable power at their shared desk. The Bachmann STEP ALU 6x UTE GST18 France sits neatly on the worktop, its six Type E sockets angled at 35° to accept bulky adapters without blocking each other. The aluminium housing shrugs off daily knocks, while the GST18 input keeps the connection secure and tool-free. This power strip is the quiet backbone of a productive workspace.

Key specifications

• 6 French Type E sockets (UTE standard) with 35° rotation for easy plug access
• Input: Wieland GST18i3 male connector for modular, secure power feed
• Rated 230V AC, 16A, max 3680W – handles multiple devices simultaneously
• Housing: silver aluminium profile with black plastic end caps, IP20 for indoor use
• Mounting: screw-on or clip-on via Bachmann STEP accessories (not included)
• Part of the modular Bachmann STEP ALU system – mix and match with other components

Why choose it

The aluminium body is not just for looks – it dissipates heat and resists impact, so the strip stays cool and intact even under full load. The GST18 connector is a proven industrial standard, offering a firm connection that won't loosen over time. And because it's part of the STEP system, you can integrate it seamlessly into desk grommets, under-desk mounts, or cable management setups as your needs evolve.

Ideal use cases

• Office desks and workbenches where multiple devices need power
• Conference rooms and training areas requiring flexible, modular power distribution
• Retail counters and reception desks with limited space
• Any indoor environment needing a robust, professional-grade power strip

Good to know

This unit is designed for fixed installation or semi-permanent desk use; it is not a portable extension lead. The IP20 rating means it is intended for dry indoor locations only. Mounting accessories (screws, clips, brackets) are sold separately. The GST18 input requires a compatible GST18 output cable or feed unit, which is commonly used in office furniture power systems.
