The LEDCO Aluminium Profile #158 is engineered from high-grade extruded aluminum, providing excellent thermal management for your LED strip lights. Aluminum acts as a built-in heat sink, drawing heat away from the LED chips and helping them maintain consistent brightness over their full rated lifespan. Proper heat dissipation is one of the most important factors in LED longevity, and this profile delivers it passively without the need for fans or additional hardware.

This profile is designed to pair seamlessly with high CRI rating LED strip lights and efficient LED drivers, ensuring your finished installation produces smooth, flicker-free light. When combined with quality components, the channel and diffuser work together to eliminate hot spots and create uniform illumination — a critical detail for task lighting under counters or accent lighting along architectural features.

The robust aluminum construction also provides physical protection for the LED tape, guarding against dust, contact damage, and moisture exposure depending on the diffuser and mounting method chosen. For installations in kitchens, bathrooms, or other areas where durability matters, this added layer of protection helps maintain performance over the long term. All LEDCO products are designed to meet cUL and CSA approved safety requirements for the Canadian market.

Installation is straightforward for both DIY homeowners and professional electricians. The profile can be cut to length with standard tools, and mounting clips and endcaps are available to secure the channel to virtually any surface. Whether you're surface-mounting it beneath upper cabinets, recessing it into a routed groove, or suspending it from a ceiling for an indirect lighting effect, the Profile #158 adapts to your project with minimal effort and a maximum style payoff.
