EMA - Aluminium Medium Duty

An L shaped extruded aluminium profile designed to protect the edges of ceramic tiles or similar hard finishes fitted in wall or floor installations. The medium duty profile is thinner than the ESA profile therefore the degree of protection it offers at the edge of wall and floor coverings is not as great. In choosing aluminium as a finishing profile the suitability of its installation must be determined if chemical or mechanical stresses are anticipated.

Available in bespoke powder coating to any RAL number on request.
