Searching for 80/20 T-Slot Structural Framing Systems? Grainger's got your back. Easy online ordering for the ones who get it done along with 24/7 customer service, free technical support & more. Cutting 80/20 aluminum t-slot extrusions can be dangerous, so here are 5 safety precautions you should take: Use eye protection as cutting 80/20 aluminum t-slot extrusions generates a fair amount of hot flying metal chips. A face shield is better. Cutting aluminum can be loud so hearing protection is also highly recommended.

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.

Some of the Benefits of 80/20 Framing Products:

  • No welding - no fighting heat stress or warping
  • No painting
  • Light weight
  • Easy to machine
  • Much less engineering time is required
  • Only simple hand tools are needed for assembly
  • No expensive fabricating equipment is required
  • Machine frames can be easily re-configured for design changes

Machine Guarding and Safety

Safety is a huge concern for industrial plants. Heavy machinery can often lead to injury of even the most seasoned operators. We use 80/20 customizable solutions to help create safety guarding measures to address possible workplace accidents. Using extruded aluminum, we can create handrails, safety cages, and machine enclosures, among other things. These solutions are not only light and flexible, but are completely modular and can be scaled up with relative ease to accommodate expansion of the machine.

Work Flow Optimization

Moving parts through the working environment can be a challenge. Parts need to be moved and stored effectively and safely through the entire process of manufacture, storage, packaging and distribution. 80/20 products can be used to create customized carts, workstations, conveyors, storage solutions and more to keep your process, and your materials moving through the process.

80/20 solutions are modular, so can precisely fit your exact process with the option to scale up or down quickly as your business grows and changes. The extruded aluminum used in 80/20 solutions is comparable to steel in regards to strength, but doesn’t require as much maintenance, and don’t lose structural integrity with repairs.
