Aluminum Z-Profile overview

These profiles made from EN AW-6060 T66 (Al MgSi0.5 F22), are characterized by their outstanding strength, corrosion resistance and lightness. Here are the essential features and applications of aluminum Z profiles that make them an indispensable component in many industrial and structural projects.

Unique selling points (USPs)

  1. Excellent material properties: Aluminum Z profiles are made of an aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy, which impresses with its high strength and good machinability. These properties make them ideal for a variety of applications in the construction and engineering industries.

  2. Light and stable: Despite their light weight, aluminum Z profiles offer impressive structural integrity. This makes transport and handling easier while reducing the load on the overall structure.

  3. Corrosion resistance: Thanks to the natural oxide layer that aluminum forms, Z profiles are particularly resistant to corrosion. This extends their service life, even in demanding environments such as maritime or industrial applications.

  4. Versatile applications: These profiles are extremely versatile. They are commonly used in construction, vehicle manufacturing, mechanical engineering, and even furniture manufacturing. Their ability to withstand high loads without losing shape makes them a preferred choice for structural applications.
