An ultra-compact profile for slat walls
The #80 is one of the most compact LED profiles in the range. Its ultra-slim format was designed for slat walls, decorative panels and tight architectural integrations, where every millimetre counts and the light has to look like part of the design rather than an afterthought. Once the strip is in place, the profile creates discreet light lines that underline the rhythm of the slats instead of competing with them. Its 6063-T5 aluminum body ensures efficient heat dissipation for the LED strip it holds.
Why choose the black finish
A silver channel can catch the eye on dark slats, black cabinetry or charcoal walls. The black LED profile blends into those surfaces, so people notice the glow, not the hardware. It is the natural choice for dark wood, matte black accents and moody spaces such as home theatres, bars and lounges. The light itself comes from the LED strip you install, so choose its colour temperature and brightness to suit the room. To hide the strip from direct view, an opaque lens is available for the #80 series, worth considering when the profile sits at eye level.
Installation tips
The #80 accepts 8 mm wide LED strips and supports surface or suspended mounting. On a slat wall, plan the position of the profiles, the power supply and the wiring path before the last slats go up, so that connections stay accessible. The 16 foot length is ideal for long, continuous runs; for an unusual layout, custom fabrication is available. Keep the power supply in a ventilated, accessible spot and have any line-voltage connection made by a licensed electrician.
