Aluminum extrusions
are metal channels that are added to the slatwall grooves
during the manufacturing process to provide extra strength
and supportability.
Slatwall with aluminum extrusions
can increase the supportability of the slatwall panel
by 75% vs. slatwall without aluminum channels inside
the grooves.
Slatwall with groove treatments such as aluminum extrusions
require a different type of groove
cut. The groove cut is deeper so it can accommodate
the extrusions.
PVC tape is
used to cover up the wood that appears inside the grooves
of your slatwall. PVC tape is great to use when you
want your slatwall and your slatwall grooves to match.
The pvc tape is added during the installation process.
