Aluminum LED channel It protects the LEDs and gives the fixture a more elegant look. It has a lightweight and durable profile. You can use it on surfaces such as walls, ceilings, furniture, or columns. The diffuser cover ensures even light distribution. Thus, the light appears softer and more homogeneous. With its cooling properties, it extends the life of the LEDs. In short, it makes LED lighting more professional both aesthetically and technically.
How to Use Aluminum LED Channels? What are the Technical Details?
- To determine how many meters of LED strips you need, you must measure the area where you will be installing them.
- Next, you need to cut the channel to your desired length. Choose the appropriate cutting tool for smooth edges. At this stage, you should also cut the diffuser cover, which we call the channel LED cover, to the same size. Both should be the same size so they fit perfectly. This will give you the best possible overall look.
- You need to cut the LED strip or LED bar to the size of the housing and insert it. Depending on the product, you can use screws or double-sided thermal tape.
- You should cover the beginning and end of the aluminum channel with aluminum caps. If you want uninterrupted light, you should cover it with opaque side caps. Because these caps allow light to pass through, they also help you achieve linear and homogeneous light continuity.
- Next, you need to attach the aluminum mounting brackets to the surface. Depending on the surface type, you can use strong adhesive silicone, double-sided tape, or screws.
- Finally, you should attach the LED channel by pushing it into these brackets. The space in between serves to conceal both the mounting brackets and the cables.
Thanks to the concealed area at the back of the product, nothing other than the LED is visible in the mounting area. You can confidently choose our LED channel models for a perfect surface-mounted linear LED experience. If you are going to use the product outdoors, the LED you place inside must be suitable for outdoor use. Because what protects it from water is not the casing but the material inside. Another option is to place an aluminum PCB in the casing and pour transparent special silicone inside the casing. This is the most robust method. After this process, you can use the product for exterior lighting.
