It also holds more aluminium, which helps on a high output run. A standard depth sits closer to the surface and throws a wider spread. Deep for a defined architectural line, standard for general coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCutting the slot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoute or cut a groove slightly wider than the channel body but narrower than the flange, so the lips have something to sit on. Measure the flange width before setting the router and test on an offcut.
