🔍 What Is a Side View Flexible Silicone LED Profile?

Side view profiles are engineered to direct light sideways instead of upward, enabling unique lighting designs for edges, outlines, and shapes.

The 16x16mm Side View Profile offers a deeper housing and wider internal space than smaller variants (like 10x10mm or 12x12mm), allowing for wider, high-output LED strips while maintaining perfect diffusion.
