Profiles[edit]

T-slot framing is divided into metric and fractional (imperial) categories. The T-slot is always centered along the long-axis of the piece. Pieces are available in each series with a square cross-section. Rectangular cross sections are available as well which measure x by 2x (where x is the defined width) - e.g. 40mx80mm for 40 series.

2020 is a 2.00” x 2.00” fractional 10 series square T-slot profile with eight open T-slots, two on each 2.00” face. The profile has align-a-grooves to assist in alignment when connecting profiles. The 2020 profile is compatible with 10 series fasteners and has a center cavity that can be pressurized up to 150 psi.
