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.
Profile type | Profile name | Profile size |
---|---|---|
fractional | 10 series | 1' |
15 series | 1.5' | |
metric | 20 series | 20 mm |
25 series | 25 mm | |
