Steel T-Slot Fasteners and Hardware

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.

A T-nut is a specialized fastener shaped like a "T" that creates a threaded connection point within T-slot aluminum extrusions. It slides into the extrusion's channel and locks in place, providing a secure, adjustable female thread for attaching components with bolts.

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.

End fasteners are internal connectors used to create clean, hidden, 90-degree joints where the end of one T-slot profile meets the face of another. They consist of a screw and a specialized wing clip, and their installation requires machining both profiles: an end tap on the "mounting" profile and an access hole on the "mating" profile. These fasteners provide a strong, anti-rotation connection suitable for many applications where aesthetics are important.

These lock nuts are essential for maintaining the integrity and rigidity of structures systems, especially in applications where movement, vibration, or repetitive stresses are present.
