Aluminium Channel Description

Alloys-6063T6 & 6082T6-Good strength, corrosion resistance used for general engineering, readily welded.

An aluminium channel is a U-shaped extrusion made from aluminium. It typically features two parallel flanges connected by a central web, forming a structure that provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio. This type of profile is commonly used in framing, edging, bracing, and structural applications. Compared to steel and other metals, aluminium is much lighter, making it easier to transport, handle, and install. This is a critical advantage when working with long structural elements, as it reduces labor costs. Additionally, the lightweight nature of aluminium does not compromise its strength, as it maintains a high strength-to-weight ratio. Due to its lightweight properties and resistance to rust, aluminium channel is a preferred alternative to steel or other heavier metals in environments where weight and corrosion are concerns. It’s widely used across multiple sectors including construction, automotive, electrical, marine, and furniture manufacturing.

Unlike steel, aluminium is corrosion-resistant, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring long-term performance. Additionally, aluminium channels are easy to cut, weld, and fabricate, making them perfect for customised projects.

Delivery

Where do we deliver to?

Currently we only deliver to the UK mainland for orders taken through the website, however, if you live outside this area please give us a call to see if we can supply to your location.

What are the delivery charges?

The delivery charges are included in the price of your order, they are automatically calculated depending on the size and weight of your order, and the number of units of your order. This makes our postage charges accurate and competitive unlike other sites that charge a flat rate no matter how small your order is.

Who do we use for delivery?

For smaller deliveries we use Royal Mail recorded delivery. For all other deliveries we use APC Overnight. Whilst we cannot offer a specified time for delivery, all APC deliveries will be between 8.00am & 4.30.

When will I get my order?

We aim to get all parcels out for delivery by the next working day. If for any reason we have a problem with your order we will contact you, we will not leave you guessing as to where your order is.

We do not work weekends or on bank holidays, that may seem old fashioned but we are a family business and family time is important to us.
