Aluminium channel 100 × 50 × 5 mm — length 2000 mm
The offer includes one section 2000 mm long. The channel has an open U-section: a flat base and two parallel side walls of equal height. It is made of unfinished aluminium.

The weight is approximate: it is calculated from the nominal cross-sectional area t × (a + 2b − 2t), the length and an aluminium density of 2700 kg/m³, without accounting for corner radii. The actual weight also depends on manufacturing tolerances and the alloy.
Drawing and dimensional symbols
Click the drawing to view it at full size.
a = 100 mm is the outside width of the base, b = 50 mm is the outside height of the channel, t = 5 mm indicates the thickness of the base and both walls, and L = 2000 mm the cut length. The left view shows the cross-section and the right view shows the side. Dimensions a and b are outside dimensions, not the clear opening inside the channel. The diagram is illustrative; the table specifies the dimensions of the particular offer, and the required fit must be confirmed before purchasing.
Material and surface
Unfinished aluminium, without an additional decorative finish. The surface is not brushed, polished, anodised or painted. Marks from manufacturing, storage and transport may be present. The main illustration shows the cross-section and material type; the proportions depend on the selected dimensions.
No specific alloy or temper is declared. If the grade or material condition is a condition of purchase, contact the shop and confirm the currently available material before ordering.
Applications and selection for machining
The channel can be used as semi-finished stock for making guides, frames, edge protectors, brackets and mounting parts. Selecting the cross-section for the loads and required joints is part of the finished component design. Allow for machining allowances and kerf width when drilling, milling or cutting. Confirm suitability for welding, bending or surface treatment for the alloy and material condition currently available.
Purchasing and selecting variants
Buying one piece means one 2000 mm cut length. Buying several pieces means separate sections of the ordered length. Beside the price, select the outside cross-section dimensions, then an available wall thickness and length. Subsequent sections show only existing variants compatible with the previous selection. Each offer has its own price and availability.
Preparation and cutting
For a different dimension, contact the shop and confirm cutting availability, cost and tolerance. Specify the cross-section dimensions, wall thickness, length of each piece and quantity.

Delivery
The length of the packed material and the total order weight affect the available transport options. Check the delivery methods and cost for your address and number of pieces in the cart.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What do the channel dimensions mean?
100 mm is the outside width, 50 mm is the outside height and 5 mm is the thickness of the base and walls. The length in this offer is 2000 mm.
Do the stated dimensions describe the space inside the channel?
No. These are outside dimensions. When selecting a channel to fit another component, account for wall thicknesses, corner radii and manufacturing tolerances; confirm the required fit before purchasing.
Will several pieces be supplied as one long item?
No. Each piece is a separate 2000 mm cut length. A different division requires prior agreement.
Is the channel brushed or anodised?
No. This is unfinished aluminium, without additional decorative finishing, brushing, polishing, anodising or painting.
Can I require a specific aluminium grade?
State this requirement before purchasing. The shop must confirm the grade and material condition currently available.
Can cutting to a different dimension be ordered?
Contact the shop, specifying the cross-section, thickness, lengths and number of pieces. Agree on cutting availability, cost and tolerance before ordering.
