Surface-mounted LED profile with translucent diffuser for all types of LED strips

The Mantagua LED surface-mounted profile is a lighting solution designed to hold LED strips. Made of aluminum and fitted with a translucent PMMA diffuser, it serves to protect the LED strip, dissipate heat, and evenly diffuse light. It is specifically suited for marine applications.

This profile is primarily made of aluminium for its structure, ensuring excellent heat dissipation and corrosion resistance. The diffuser is made of translucent PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate).

The translucent PMMA diffuser has several essential functions:

It protects the LED strip from external elements.It ensures homogeneous light diffusion, reducing hotspots.It provides a 90° beam angle for optimized lighting.

The standard length of this LED profile is 1000 mm, or 1 meter. This length allows for the creation of custom LED strips.

Yes, this profile is specifically designed for marine applications. Its aluminium construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, a major advantage for humid and saline environments.

Due to its aluminum construction, the extruded profile provides excellent thermal dissipation. This property is crucial as it reduces the heat generated by the LED strip, thereby significantly extending its lifespan compared to an installation without a profile.

The translucent PMMA dome light provides a 90° beam angle. This ensures homogeneous light diffusion, ideal for ambient or functional lighting.

Yes, each profile is supplied with two end caps, allowing for a clean and secure finish to the installation.

Mantagua is a brand recognized for its expertise in marine LED lighting. It is ISO 9001 certified, ensuring its products, including this profile, meet the requirements of the nautical environment.

Thanks to its corrosion-resistant aluminum construction and marine-grade design, this profile is suitable for wet and salty environments, which typically includes outdoor use on a boat, provided the inserted LED strip is itself rated for this application.

This profile is compatible with any type of LED strip, provided the strip dimensions fit inside the profile.

The profile has a width of 17.5 mm and a height of 15 mm. These dimensions allow it to accommodate appropriately sized LED strips.

Yes, this profile is designed to be compatible with 'any type of LED strip', including strips from other brands, provided they meet the internal dimensions of the profile (17.5 mm width and 15 mm height).

The profile itself is corrosion-resistant and suitable for marine environments. For a watertight installation, it is essential to use an LED strip that is itself waterproof and to ensure that the entire installation (including end caps and end-seal waterproofing) meets the required watertight standards. The profile protects the strip but does not make it watertight on its own.

This profile is designed for surface-mounted installation, meaning it attaches directly to the surface. This simplifies installation on various surfaces without requiring complex recessing.

No, this profile is a surface-mount type, meaning it installs on top of the surface. It does not require complex recessing or extensive surface preparation, unlike recessed profiles.

Yes, the profile allows for custom LED strip creation. It can be cut to the desired length to fit your installation space precisely.

Surface-mount installation is generally simpler than recessed installation. The profile is designed to facilitate installation on various surfaces and is supplied with end caps for a clean finish, making installation accessible to a non-professional user.

The end caps are designed to fit the ends of the profile, providing a clean and secure finish. They are typically attached by snapping into place or with a slight clip mechanism, ensuring they stay in position once the profile is installed.

For installation, you will likely need measuring tools, a cutting tool if you wish to adjust the profile length, and appropriate fastening tools (such as a drill and screws) suited to the surface where the profile will be installed.
