The 80 20 Aluminum Rule and Framing Tech’s T-slot Aluminum Inch Profiles Customers often ask why we carry essentially the same line of extruded aluminum T-slot profiles, but in two different measuring systems: metric and fractional (inch). The reason, quite simply, is convenience. Strut Channel 80/20 10 Series T-Slotted Aluminum Profiles Are Designed For The Construction of Machine Guards, Enclosures, Work Benches, Displays and Panel Mount Racks. Strut channel 80/20 10 series t-slotted aluminum profiles are composed of lightweight aluminum for lasting durability.

80/20, known as 'The Industrial Erector Set'©, is a modular T -slotted aluminum framing system offered in both inch and metric profiles. It offers extremely cost-efficient solutions to building machine frames, guards, work stations, retrofit projects and more... basically anything ... and we do it all right here at Fiero Fluid Power! We maintain extensive product inventories and provide in-house services including in-depth CAD support and building complete value-added assemblies.

80/20’s modularity is based upon the T-slot concept of our profiles. The 'T' shaped slots present on all of our profiles allow for infinite positioning along the axis. While there are other types of T-slotted profiles in the industry, one modification to the 80/20 line is a slight adjustment to the ' T' which creates the 2° Drop-Lock Feature. When a fastener is tightened to (or beyond) the necessary torque, the flange will flex up to the adjoining profile, thus creating pressure which prevents the fasteners from vibrating loose.
