An Ipe wood grain tongue and groove aluminum slat in 18 ft lengths

The ALU 60 T&G Slat 18 ft in Woodgrain IPE is a wood grain tongue and groove aluminum slat from Aluglobus Aluminum Systems, listed in the price list as ALU 60 T&G – GEN 1.0 Slat 18 ft. – WG – Ipe. It pairs the interlocking ALU 60 T&G profile with an Ipe wood-like finish, so a run of slats closes up into a continuous, hardwood-look surface without the oiling and sealing real Ipe needs.

Why tongue and groove matters

With a tongue-and-groove slat, the edge of each board seats into the next one. Stacked horizontally, the slats lock together into a closed face, which is what you want for privacy screens, solid gates and wall toppers that hide a view. In the Ipe finish, that closed face reads like a run of dark hardwood boards rather than a metal panel.

Where to use 18 ft stock

  • Sliding gates: long enough to cut pieces for wide gate frames.
  • Fences and wall toppers: cut to your section width from one length to keep the grain consistent along the run.
  • Pergolas and patio screens: the listed usage includes pergolas for patios; see our pergola range.
  • Pedestrian gates: several gate-width pieces can come out of a single slat.

Plan a cut list before ordering so each 18 ft length gives you useful pieces with minimal offcut, and support the slat along its length when cutting to protect the wood grain surface.

Compatibility and related slats

This slat is labeled GEN 1.0. Before mixing it with other ALU 60 T&G parts, such as the black ALU 60 T&G slat 0.047 THK x 8ft or ALU 60 T&G gate and fence kits, confirm with our team that the generations fit together in your frame or channel. If you want a wood grain slat in a different profile and tone, the ALU 40 18 ft Yellow Oak slat gives a lighter look with a spaced (non-interlocking) layout. More profiles are listed under aluminum fence.

Long lengths need careful handling and suitable delivery or collection arrangements, so confirm those details with our team when you order.

Material & finish

What it is made of

ALU 60 T&G SLAT 18 ft – Woodgrain – IPE is made from aluminum 6063-t6, finished with Woodgrain / wood like – Ipe.

6063-T6 is an architectural aluminum alloy made for extruded profiles. It gives clean, consistent shapes and takes a powder coating evenly, which is why it is widely used for fences, gates and other exterior building products.
