The smallest of six channel cover spacer sizes: an optional 3/8 in. black aluminum part for use with the C-Channel Kit (C-channel, cover and cap).
The 3/8 inch channel cover spacer: smallest in the range
This 3/8 inch channel cover spacer from Aluglobus Aluminum Systems is the smallest of the six channel cover spacer sizes in the price list. It is an optional black aluminum accessory for the C-Channel Kit, which combines a C-channel, a cover and a cap, and its listed usage is Channel Cover Spacers.
Don't confuse it with the 2-way post spacer
The shop also sells 3/8 in. spacers for the 2.75 2-way post, where the price list does say they set a 3/8 gap between slats. That is a different part for a different system. If your fence is built on 2-way posts, you want the 3/8 in. 2-way post spacer pack. If your slats run in a C-channel, this is the part to look at.
Choosing a size
The listed sizes are 3/8 in., 1/2 in., 3/4 in., 1 in., 2 in. and 4 in. The price list does not state the gap or spacing each size produces, so confirm with our team which one fits your channel and slats. The next size up is the 1/2 in. channel cover spacer.
Material and finish
Made from 6063-T6 aluminum with AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating in Black, the same finish specification as the black C-Channel Kits it pairs with, including the 18 ft. C-Channel Kit. Because it is optional, check the included instructions for your kit before ordering. The listing shows no pack quantity, so if you need a number of pieces for a long run, ask our team how they are supplied.
Material & finish
What it is made of
Channel Cover Spacers 3/8 in. – 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.
