T-slot structural framing is a framing system consisting of lengths of square or rectangular extruded aluminum, typically 6105-T5 aluminium alloy, with a T-slot down the centerline of one or more sides. It is also known as 80/20 framing, after the company 80/20, Inc., one of the prominent T-slot framing brands, the name of which is based on the 80/20 principle. While there is no published standard defining this framing system, manufacturers have settled into two categories of product comprising several series each that is generally intercompatible across manufacturers.

Profiles[edit]
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 | |
30 series | 30 mm | |
40 series | 40 mm | |
45 series | 45 mm |
Framing profiles for T-slot structural framing systems are straight sections of extruded aluminum used to create custom building projects. These bars have recessed T-slots that accept hardware for creating joints or mounting components like hinges, connectors, and support plates.
