Brand: LEDCO

If you're looking to give your home lighting a sleek, professional finish, the LEDCO Aluminum Profile #86 in Black is the perfect solution. This LED channel — also known as an aluminum extrusion or LED mounting profile — provides a clean, modern housing for your LED strip lights, transforming bare tape light into a polished, built-in lighting feature. Whether you're upgrading your kitchen, bathroom, or living space, this profile delivers that custom-installed look without the custom price tag.

Designed with the style-conscious homeowner in mind, this aluminum LED profile features a sophisticated black finish that blends beautifully with contemporary cabinetry, shelving, and architectural details. Use it as under-cabinet lighting, accent lighting along shelves, cove lighting in ceilings, or as a sleek linear light fixture in virtually any room. The profile conceals your LED strip while diffusing the light evenly, eliminating harsh bright spots and creating a smooth, seamless glow throughout your space.

Built to meet Canadian electrical standards and engineered from high-quality extruded aluminum, this LEDCO profile is as durable as it is attractive. It's compatible with a wide range of LED tape light widths and pairs with various cover lens options for the exact look you want — from soft diffused light to a more direct output. Whether you're a weekend DIY renovator or working with a contractor, this LED aluminum channel makes achieving designer-quality lighting refreshingly simple.

The LEDCO Aluminum Profile #86 is precision-engineered from high-grade extruded aluminum, providing superior thermal management for your LED strip lights. Aluminum is one of the most effective heat-dissipating materials available, and by housing your LED tape inside this profile, you actively draw heat away from the LEDs. This significantly extends the LED lifespan and maintains consistent light output over thousands of hours of operation, reducing the premature lumen depreciation that occurs when strip lights are mounted on less thermally conductive surfaces.

This profile is designed to work seamlessly with high CRI LED strip lights, preserving the quality and accuracy of the light being emitted. The integrated diffuser lens options minimize hotspotting and create uniform light distribution, which is essential for applications like under-cabinet task lighting, display illumination, and architectural accent lighting. The aluminum construction also provides physical protection for the LED strip, shielding it from dust, accidental contact, and minor impacts.

Certified to Canadian electrical standards and manufactured to meet rigorous quality benchmarks, this LEDCO extrusion is suitable for both residential and light commercial installations. The black anodized finish is resistant to corrosion and wear, making it appropriate for kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-use areas. When paired with an appropriate IP-rated LED strip, the profile system can be adapted for damp or semi-exposed locations as needed.

Installation is straightforward, with multiple mounting options including surface mounting, recessed installation, and suspended configurations depending on your project requirements. The profile accepts standard mounting clips and end caps, and can be cut to length on site with basic tools. By housing your LED strips in a proper aluminum LED channel, you ensure a safer, cooler-running, and far more professional result compared to bare strip light installations — all while improving energy efficiency and long-term reliability across your lighting system.
