Aluminum is lighter and usually cheaper than stainless, which makes it a good fit for standard shower enclosures where the track sits inside a wet area but is protected by the enclosure. The finish is applied to the alloy and holds up well in bathroom use when cleaned properly. For heavy doors or coastal salt exposure, stainless (712) is the safer pick.

The track is cut to your shower width on order - give us the finished length and we cut and deburr before shipping. Order a few mm short of the measured span so the track slides into the opening without binding.

It is made for frameless shower glass panels - the glass sits in the track and runs on rollers. Confirm your glass thickness and door width when ordering so we supply the right roller setup; the track itself suits standard frameless shower glass.

Aluminum does not rust like steel. The risk is surface marking from hard water and cleaners over time, so wipe the track down after use and avoid abrasive cleaning pads. If the shower is heavily used or the water is aggressive, stainless (712) is the lower-maintenance choice.

The track is the rail; rollers and end stoppers are matched to the track section. Tell us the door width and glass thickness and we will quote the track plus the correct roller set so the package runs smoothly. Stoppers are worth adding so the door does not slide off the track end.

Brushed nickel, chrome, brushed bronze, and gun gray as stock, with custom colors for OEM orders. State the finish when ordering so it matches the rest of your bathroom hardware - mixing finish lines can produce a visible tone difference.
