If you want a PV system, start with the rail that keeps everything together. Solar profiles carry loads, oppose air and weather, and speed up installation. Buyers seek durability, accurate dimensions, clean finish, rapid delivery and fair pricing.

China is a global center for PV mounting profiles - high production, stable mixes and competitive costs. The Korgi supplies the project-Taiyar rail with consistent glasses and export experiences.

Quick takeaway: Use this guide to choose the right profile, forecast cost, and source safely with Corigy.

What is a Solar Profile?

A solar profile is an extruded rail or section used in PV mounting systems. It supports panels, spreads load to brackets, and keeps modules aligned for decades. Materials are usually aluminum (6005‑T5 / 6063‑T6) or galvanized steel depending on design.

Common use cases: rooftops (residential and commercial), ground mounts, carports, agro‑PV, and select floating PV frames.

Standard sizes and specs (what to order)

Tip: Share drawings (or desired span, load, and wind zone). Corigy will confirm the section, wall thickness, and finish to match your project conditions.

Pricing: How much do Solar Profiles cost?

Factory pricing is usually quoted per kg (aluminum) or per ton (steel) . Budget ranges depend on alloy, finish, size, and MOQ. Pricing also follows raw material indexes.

What changes the price:

• Alloy grade (6005‑T5 vs 6063‑T6)
• Section size and wall thickness
• Surface treatment (mill < anodized < powder‑coated)
• Order quantity and packing method
• Incoterm (EXW / FOB / CIF) and port choice

Corigy guidance: Send expected rail size + quantity. We provide a firm FOB/CIF quote within 24 hours and lock a validity window linked to the metal index.

MOQ & lead time (what to plan)

• MOQ: Often 1–3 tons per profile or project batch
• Lead time: ~15–25 days after deposit for standard sections; +5–7 days if a new die is required
• Ports: Arranged by production line schedule; we confirm the optimal route in the quote

Samples: Prototype cut lengths and finish swatches available for approval before mass production.

Where Solar Profiles win vs. alternatives

• Versus steel angle/pipe: Lower weight, faster cutting and drilling, corrosion resistance with anodized aluminum
• Versus timber: No warping, rot, or termites; consistent dimensions
• Versus imported premium rails: Comparable performance with better cost control and short lead times

Use cases and design ideas

• Residential rooftops: Light rails that speed up crew work; clean anodized finish for visible edges
• Commercial & industrial: Heavier sections for long spans on flat roofs and sheet‑metal roofs
• Utility‑scale farms: Profiles chosen for wind/snow zones; optimized for clamp layout and grounding
• Carports & agro‑PV: Powder‑coated options to match structures and improve corrosion resistance

Design tip: Align profile selection with clamp type (mid/end), grounding method, and module frame height to avoid site rework.

Corigy quality & compliance

• Materials: High‑strength aluminum alloy with batch verification
• QA workflow: Alloy check → extrusion strength test → surface inspection → dimensional tolerance → final packing QC
• Reports: ISO 9001 QMS; CE/TÜV test reports available on request
• Production: Dedicated lines for solar rails with custom die support
• Track record: Repeat orders from EPCs and distributors; export‑ready packing with edge protection and palletization

Installation: fast steps (fits pros & crews)

1. Fix brackets/ roof hooks or ground frame per drawing
2. Place and align solar profiles; check level
3. Fasten rails to brackets to the specified torque
4. Install modules; tighten mid and end clamps per spec
5. Verify alignment and bonding/grounding; complete wiring

Maintenance: Visual inspection during routine service. Wipe rails if needed; no repainting required for anodized finish.

Logistics & buying checklist

• Incoterm: FOB if you manage freight; CIF if you prefer landed port price
• Packing: Request count per 20′GP / 40′HQ to optimize freight and handling
• HS Code: Aluminum structures typically under 7610.x (confirm per design)
• Documentation: Commercial invoice, packing list, CO; mill/finish reports
• QC: Pre‑shipment inspection photos/videos; third‑party inspection optional

Transparent price bands (planning examples)

Illustrative ranges for budgeting; request a formal quote for your exact spec and tonnage.

• Standard anodized aluminum rail (6005‑T5, ~2.0 mm wall): project‑based per kg
• Powder‑coated or custom‑die profiles: premium over standard
• Heavy‑duty sections (≥3.0 mm wall): higher per‑kg pricing due to weight and finish

Why source from Corigy (vs. marketplace browsing)?

• Stable specs: Tight tolerance control on thickness and straightness
• Design depth: Standard sections plus custom dies for OEM/ODM
• Smoother logistics: Booking support, optimized packing, clear documents
• After‑sales: Support for replacements on verified defects; consistent supply for repeat projects

Conclusion

Start with rails you can trust. Corigy Solar Profiles deliver strength, clean finish, and predictable lead times—backed by a team that understands EPC schedules.
