Aluminum profile Baks PAL40H40/2,2 — corner/profile 40x40 mm, wall thickness 2.2 mm

Baks PAL40H40/2,2 is an aluminum profile with external dimensions 40×40 mm and a wall thickness of 2.2 mm. Designed for structural framing and edge finishing, this corner/profile offers a lightweight, corrosion‑resistant solution for frameworks, furniture elements, display frames and enclosures. The profile is suitable for standard metalworking operations such as cutting, drilling and fastening and provides consistent geometry for repeatable assembly tasks.

Advantages

The profile combines low weight and material strength typical of aluminum alloys, enabling easier handling and reduced load on supporting structures. Its 40×40 mm cross‑section and 2.2 mm wall thickness deliver predictable stiffness for light- to medium‑duty frames while remaining easy to machine with common tools. Corrosion resistance reduces the need for additional surface treatment in many indoor and semi‑protected outdoor applications.

Suitable for

• Structural framing of light enclosures and racks
• Edge finishing and corner protection in furniture and displays
• Fabrication of mounting rails, supports and trim elements
• DIY and prototyping projects requiring precise, repeatable sections

Key specifications

• Cross section: 40 × 40 mm
• Wall thickness: 2.2 mm
• Material: aluminum (corrosion‑resistant alloy)
• Form: L / corner/profile suitable for corner and edge applications
• Workability: suitable for cutting, drilling and fastening with standard metalworking tools

How to use

Measure and mark required lengths, then cut the profile using a fine‑tooth saw or appropriate metal cutting blade to minimize burring. Deburr cut edges and, if necessary, apply a light file to mating surfaces to ensure tight fits. Drill holes with standard HSS or carbide bits while securing the profile in a vice or fixture to prevent movement. Fasten components using appropriate screws, rivets or brackets chosen for aluminum assemblies and compatible with the applied loads.

Usage recommendations

For best results, store profiles in a dry, ventilated area to prevent surface contamination. When joining to dissimilar metals, use insulating washers or coatings to avoid galvanic corrosion. If the application requires enhanced surface protection or a specific finish, consider anodizing or painting after fabrication.
