Aluminum C-channel - what is it supposed to be used for?

Say, this aluminum C-channel that people use to edge their shields - what is it really called, and what is it supposed to be used for? So when I go to Home Depot and ask for it they won't get a "Tilt" sign across their forhead when I ask for "shield edging".

Aluminum Trim Channel For Plywood

It's usually used to edge plywood. Usually comes in 4 or 8 foot lengths and 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 widths.

Next to the threaded rod stock and angle iron on the aisle with the screws and bolts.

It's also used for edging glassworks on a bigger scale...
