T-Slot Fasteners and Hardware 45 Series

A T-nut block is a specific, often more robust or block-shaped, type of T-nut. Used with T-slot aluminum extrusions. it slides into the channel to provide a secure, internal female thread for attaching components with bolts.

Brackets are essential, externally mounted fasteners for T-slot aluminum extrusion structures. They provide strong, highly versatile 90-degree connections, and sometimes even more complex joints. A major benefit of most 80/20 brackets is that they don't require any machining on the profiles, making them exceptionally quick and easy to install, adjust, and reconfigure. You secure them by simply inserting T-nuts into the T-slots and bolting the bracket into place.

Connectors come in various forms to suit different needs. Central connectors, for instance, are used to join to the center face of another profile. Miter connectors specialize in creating hidden angled joints, often at 45 degrees. Bolt connectors are internal fasteners that primarily use a threaded bolt for secure attachment. Whether you need a hidden central connection, a clean angled joint, or a general internal attachment, these specialized connectors, sometimes aided by milling, enable versatile and aesthetically pleasing structural designs.

Inside corner connectors for T-slot aluminum extrusions are internal fasteners that create clean, hidden 90-degree joints. Unlike external brackets, these connectors are concealed within the profiles, offering a sleek look without protrusions. Many standard inside corner connectors can be installed quickly without any special preparation, simply by sliding them into the T-slots and tightening set screws. This makes them ideal for building professional-looking frames and enclosures.
