T-Slot Concept
80/20’s modularity is based upon the T-slot concept ofour 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.
T-slotted profiles for both FRACTIONAL and METRIC measurment series.
