An 8 ft aluminum c-channel kit with cover and cap
Horizontal slat fences and gates need something at each end to hold the slats straight and hide the cut ends. The C-Channel Kit 8 ft. from Aluglobus Aluminum Systems is an 8 ft aluminum c-channel kit that does that job: an 8 ft. C-channel with a matching cover and cap, in black powder-coated 6063-T6 aluminum.

How the channel, cover and cap work together
The C-channel provides the open slot that receives the slat ends, keeping each slat aligned in the run. The cover closes the face of the channel for a clean finished edge, and the cap closes the top. Because all three parts come in the same black AAMA 2604 finish, the channel blends with black posts and frames instead of showing as a separate trim piece.
Choosing the right length
- C-Channel Kit 78 in.: listed for pedestrian gates, sliding gates, fence and wall topper.
- C-Channel Kit 8 ft. (this kit): listed for the same uses, with a longer channel.
- C-Channel Kit 18 ft.: listed for HD pedestrian gates, HD sliding gates, fence and wall topper.
A C-Channel Kit 6 ft. is also listed in the shop. Choose a length that covers the height of your slat stack or the span of your frame member, with enough to trim. When in doubt about which length or how many kits a project needs, confirm with our team.
Planning your order
Count the channels in your layout: fence runs and gates typically use channel at each end of a slat section. Measure the height you need to cover, plan cuts before ordering and follow the included instructions when fitting. Browse matching posts, slats and kits in our aluminum fence range.
Material & finish
What it is made of
C-Channel Kit 8 ft. – Black is made from aluminum 6063-t6, finished with AAMA 2604 Super-Durable Powder Coating in black.
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.
AAMA 2604 is the American Architectural Manufacturers Association specification for high-performance organic coatings, powder coatings included, on aluminum extrusions. It sets test requirements for outdoor color and gloss retention, chalking and corrosion resistance.
