Aluminum construction profiles, Bosch compatible series for your applications
Choose the one that suits your planned construction
Find your b-type profile
Directly by design, contour or groove form.
b-type by design
Standard, light or Economy. The design determines wall thickness and load capacity at the same groove width.
- Standard
- Light
- Economy
- X
- XMS
b-type by contour
Square, rectangular, round or as an angle. Choose the cross-sectional shape that suits your construction.
- Square
- Rectangular
- Triangular
- Round
- Angle
b-type by groove form
Open or closed grooves. This determines from which sides you can attach add-on parts later.
- Open grooves
- 1 side closed
- 2 sides closed 180°
- 2 sides closed 180°
- 3 sides closed
- 4 sides closed
- Angle profiles

What is a Bosch profile?
Bosch profiles are aluminum profiles used above all in design engineering and mechanical engineering. They are distinguished by their high stability and versatility. These profiles have standardised dimensions and groove sizes that allow for easy connection and extension. They are ideal for modular systems and fit perfectly with a wide range of accessories and connecting pieces. Bosch profiles are robust and durable, and thus offer a reliable solution for many construction projects. With Bosch profiles a very wide variety of constructions can be realised, from simple frames through to complex installations into which any device can be integrated seamlessly. They are highly popular not only in industry, but also in the field of DIY projects. Thanks to their great flexibility and adaptability, Bosch profiles are the first choice for many engineers and project managers. They offer endless possibilities to work creatively and efficiently, which saves valuable time and resources. Anyone who chooses profiles that are compatible with Bosch profiles — for example from series 10 — is opting for quality and reliability that will make any project a success.
What are compatible construction profiles?
Compatible construction profiles are components developed specifically to work seamlessly with Bosch profiles and to meet the same high standards in terms of quality, resistance moment and performance.
What advantages do compatible construction profiles offer?
These profiles offer a cost-effective alternative to conventional Bosch profiles without compromising on quality, resistance moment or moment of inertia. They are highly versatile and allow for easy integration into existing systems. Our compatible construction profiles come in various cut lengths, which provides great flexibility when planning and implementing your projects. This makes it easier to adapt and extend existing systems, because the matching profiles are available in the required lengths and shapes.
Are the compatible profiles just as stable as Bosch profiles?
Yes. Our compatible construction profiles are manufactured from high-quality materials and offer the same stability, precision, moment of inertia and resistance moment as Bosch profiles, which makes them suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Can I extend existing Bosch systems with these profiles?
Absolutely. Thanks to their compatibility, you can extend and adapt existing Bosch systems with our profiles without difficulty, which gives you flexibility and efficiency in production.
How easy is it to assemble the compatible construction profiles?
Assembly is quick and straightforward, because the profiles are designed to harmonise perfectly with Bosch profiles. This saves time and reduces the effort involved in installation. With precise cut lengths, our profiles provide a reliable basis for your constructions. You can be confident that every cut meets the specifications and ensures seamless integration into your project.
