Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are LED strip silicone profiles?

They're flexible, bendy silicone housings that hold your LED strips. Think of them as rubber-like channels that protect your LED strips while helping them look absolutely fantastic! They diffuse the light to create a smooth glow, and they're tough enough to handle moisture, dust, and even outdoor use.

How are silicone profiles different from aluminium profiles?

The big difference is flexibility! While aluminium profiles are rigid and great for straight lines, silicone profiles can bend and curve around corners and irregular shapes. Silicone profiles are also typically more weatherproof and better suited for outdoor or wet area installations. They're the perfect choice when you need lighting that follows curved surfaces or creates interesting shapes.

Are LED strip silicone profiles waterproof?

Absolutely! That's one of their biggest selling points. Our silicone profiles provide excellent protection against moisture, making them perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, gardens, and other areas where water might be an issue. Most of our silicone profiles offer IP65 or better protection, keeping your LED strips safe and dry.

Can I bend and shape these profiles myself?

You certainly can! That's what makes them so brilliant. Unlike rigid aluminium profiles, silicone profiles can be bent, curved, and twisted to follow whatever shape you need. They're perfect for creative lighting designs, signage, or anywhere you need lighting to follow a non-straight path.

What types of LED strips work with silicone profiles?

Most of our standard LED strips will work nicely with these profiles, including single colour, RGB, and even COB (Chip on Board) strips for ultra-smooth lighting. Just make sure to check the width of your LED strip matches the internal channel of the silicone profile. Our product descriptions include all the measurements you'll need.

Do I need special tools to install silicone profiles?

Not at all! That's another advantage of going with silicone. They're typically installed using a strong adhesive backing or mounting clips. You can cut them to length with just a sharp pair of scissors or a craft knife—much easier than cutting aluminium! Most DIYers find silicone profiles much more forgiving and easier to work with than rigid alternatives.

Can silicone profiles be used for outdoor lighting?

Definitely! They're absolutely brilliant for outdoor use. The silicone material stands up to UV rays, temperature changes, rain, and snow without yellowing or becoming brittle. They're perfect for garden lighting, pathway markers, outdoor signs, and even festive decorations.

How do I join silicone profiles for longer runs?

We offer connector pieces specifically designed for joining silicone profiles. These little beauties create a seamless connection while maintaining the waterproof integrity of your installation. For most indoor applications, a bit of silicone sealant can also work well to join sections.

Will the silicone yellowing over time?

Our high-quality silicone profiles are UV-stabilised, which means they resist yellowing much better than cheaper alternatives. While all materials will show some aging over many years (especially in direct sunlight), you can expect our silicone profiles to maintain their clarity and performance for years to come.
