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.

T-slotted profiles for both FRACTIONAL
and METRIC
measurment series.
The
2° Drop-Lock Feature is one of the many practical aspects
of the 80/20 product line that many of our competitors do not
have. This drop-lock consists of a 2° decline of the T-slot
flange. 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.

80/20 T-slotted profiles have the Drop-Lock Feature
