aluminium profile system 63
AME System aluminium profiles overview series profiles introduction 80x80 x80 x80/180 x Aluminium profiles are provided with longitudinal grooves which can be used in conjunction with connecting elements and can also perform a whole range of additional functions. All profiles have been designed to deliver maximum strength for the material used. x/180 x/90 Natural anodised finish is resistant to scratching and corrosion. Two profiles series: series 6 profiles, mm groove series 6 profles, mm groove series profiles Uniform modular dimensions mean that the connecting elements and accessories are fully interchangeable. design and assembly tips x x x/90 x x/180 x/90 1. for lower loads application use combination of series and profiles. 2. where possible, the vertical profiles should extend through the entire height 3. where required, profiles should be assembled so that the larger section dimension oppose the load in order to achieve vertical strength.
