The Industrial 4040 Anodized Aluminum Extrusion Profile is a versatile and robust component widely used in the construction of solar mounting structures. Made from high-quality aluminum, these profiles are precisely extruded into a 40x40mm cross-section, providing excellent structural integrity and compatibility with various mounting accessories. The anodized finish enhances its corrosion resistance, making it suitable for long-term outdoor use in diverse environmental conditions. This profile serves as the foundational element for framing solar panels and creating strong, reliable support systems for both residential and large-scale solar installations.

Key Features

• Material: Constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy, ensuring durability, lightweight properties, and excellent load-bearing capabilities for solar panels.
• 40x40mm Cross-Section: The standardized 4040 profile size provides optimal balance between strength and weight, making it compatible with a wide range of connectors, fasteners, and accessories commonly used in industrial applications.
• Anodized Finish: Features an anodized surface treatment that significantly increases corrosion resistance, protects against wear, and maintains a clean aesthetic, ideal for outdoor and harsh environments.
• Modular Design: The extrusion’s design incorporates T-slots or similar grooves along its sides, allowing for easy and flexible attachment of various components, such as rail connectors, clamps, and feet, making it highly adaptable for custom solar mounting structures.
• High Precision: Manufactured with precise tolerances, ensuring accurate alignment and secure connections when assembling complex solar arrays.
• Lightweight: Despite its strength, aluminum profiles are lightweight, simplifying transportation, handling, and installation on rooftops or ground-mounted systems.

Applications

• Solar Panel Racking Systems: Serves as the primary structural beam or rail on which solar panels are mounted, providing stable support and alignment.
• Ground-Mounted Solar Arrays: Utilized in constructing frameworks for large-scale ground-mounted solar farms, ensuring robust support for numerous panels.
• Rooftop Solar Installations: Integrated into residential, commercial, and industrial rooftop solar systems where strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant framing is required.
• Carport Solar Structures: Forms the skeletal structure of solar carports, combining vehicle shelter with energy generation.
• Custom Solar Mounting Solutions: Its modular nature makes it ideal for bespoke solar mounting designs, adapting to specific site requirements and system configurations.
• Industrial Frameworks: Beyond solar, these profiles are often used in general industrial applications for building frames, workstations, and automation equipment due to their versatility and strength.

Advantages

• Superior Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Offers robust support for solar panels without adding excessive weight to the structure.
• Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Anodized aluminum ensures long-term performance and minimal degradation, even in aggressive outdoor environments.
• Flexibility and Versatility: The modular T-slot design allows for easy reconfiguration and expansion, accommodating different panel sizes and array layouts.
• Ease of Assembly: Components can be quickly connected and adjusted, leading to faster installation times and reduced labor costs.
• Maintenance-Free: Given its durable material and finish, the profile requires very little maintenance over its lifespan.
• Aesthetic Appeal: The clean, anodized finish provides a professional and modern look to solar installations.
