Standard Profiles
Ready-to-order aluminum extrusion profiles from our in-house die library — angles, channels, tubes, flats, and bars in 9 alloys.
From Die Library
To Your Door
Standard profiles are extruded from CANEX's comprehensive in-house die library — eliminating die fabrication time and cost. With hundreds of proven cross-sections ready to run, we offer the fastest possible lead times for the most commonly specified aluminum shapes.
Our library covers angles, channels (U and C-profile), tubes (round, square, and rectangular), flat bars, T-sections, and Z-sections — all produced on our 22 MN and 27 MN IoT-adapted presses in our 6th of October City facility.
Every standard profile can be supplied in mill finish or combined with any of our six in-house finishing services — powder coating, wood effect, grinding, barrel finishing, or shot blasting — and can be cut, drilled, milled, or punched to specification by our machining team.
Standard Profile Range
Our in-house die library covers four major profile families, each available in multiple cross-section sizes and all five standard alloys.
Angles & Channels
600 × 400 px
Angles & Channels
Equal and unequal angles, U-profile and C-profile channels in a wide range of leg widths and thicknesses. The workhorse shapes for framing, support, and connection applications.
Tubes & Hollow Sections
600 × 400 px
Tubes & Hollow Sections
Round, square, and rectangular hollow sections (RHS) providing excellent strength-to-weight ratios. Ideal for structural columns, handrails, and mechanical applications.
Flat Bars & Plates
600 × 400 px
Flat Bars & Plates
Solid flat bars available in a comprehensive range of widths (10 mm–200 mm) and thicknesses. Used in fabrication, cladding, spacers, and decorative applications.
T / Z / H Sections
600 × 400 px
T / Z / H Sections
T-bar, Z-section, and H-section profiles for joining, glazing, curtain wall, and structural applications. Available in standard dimensions or cut to length to your order.

The Standard Profiles Advantage
When you order from our existing die library, you unlock five major benefits that custom-die projects cannot match on speed or cost.
Zero Die Lead Time
Your die already exists. No waiting 7–14 days for die fabrication — we go straight to press as soon as your order is confirmed.
Cost Competitive
No die amortization cost. Standard profiles offer the most competitive pricing per kg — especially beneficial for smaller order volumes.
Proven Die Performance
Every die in our library has run thousands of meters. Proven tooling means consistent output, predictable tolerances, and minimal scrap.
All 6 Finishes Available
Standard profiles are fully compatible with every CANEX surface finish — powder coating, wood effect, grinding, barrel finishing, and shot blasting.
Full Value-Added Machining
Cut to length, drilled, milled, punched, or bent — our machining team can process any standard profile to your exact fabrication drawings.
Door-to-Door Delivery
CANEX handles export documentation, packaging, and worldwide freight. Your profiles arrive ready to use, wherever you are.
