Recommended LED Channels
Mount this LED strip in a DENO LED aluminum profile for heat dissipation, physical protection and diffused, dot-free output.
This strip is 5mm wide, so it needs a channel with at least 7mm inner width (5mm + 2mm clearance). Every profile below meets that.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key specifications of 2298?
2298: 3528, 120, 12V, 5mm PCB, 3 oz copper FPCB, cuttable 3LEDs/25mm, IP20/IP65/IP67/IP68, CRI Ra≥80. Full photometric data, wiring diagrams and test reports are available in the downloads section of this page.
How long can a single run of this ultra narrow LED strip be?
Maximum single run for this model is 5m. Feeding from both ends or using a mid-point tap halves the effective distance per segment, so a ultra narrow LED strip can cover twice that length on one circuit when wired accordingly.
Can DENO customise this ultra narrow LED strip for a project?
Yes. DENO manufactures the Ultra-Narrow SMD Strips series as an OEM and ODM supplier: reel length, colour temperature, CRI grade, PCB width, waterproofing and private labelling can all be specified. Request a quote for lead time and project pricing.
How narrow can a thin LED strip be?
DENO builds down to a 3 mm wide FPCB. A 3 mm LED strip fits aluminium channels, cabinet reveals, shelf edges and slim architectural slots where an 8 or 10 mm board cannot be hidden, while still carrying 2 oz copper for stable long runs.
Which LED driver and run length suit #2298?
5mm | 12V | 120LEDs | 25cut | #2298 | 3528 Ultra-Narrow LED Strip Light is a constant-voltage 12V product, so pair it with a CE or UL listed 12V constant-voltage LED driver rated about 20% above the connected load. Maximum single run is 5m. 5m Single/10m Dual Input power. Feeding from both ends or mid-feeding halves the copper distance and roughly quarters the voltage drop.
