40x40 Aluminium V Slot Extrusion

40x40 T Slot / V slot Extrusion

Silver satin anodised

We proudly make this extrusion in New Zealand.

We initially developed this extrusion for our own use in our plants and machinery. It's a solid little section at about 1.5KG per metre, and has surprised us by how robust it is.

Slot edges are chamfered to suit V slot wheels for use as linear rails.

Centre hole is designed to be threaded to M8 or M10 using a standard metric tap or spiral tap.

Please note this is intended as an industrial product, and as such the anodising finish may have cosmetic lines near the ends from holding during the process. Including these lines minimizes the amount of scrap we generate, and ensures we can deliver this at a competitive price point.

Aluminium extrusion can be cut successfully with a standard builders drop saw or mitre saw. Make sure you have a sharp (new) fine tooth blade, and use light oil, CRC or kerosene to ensure a clean cut. Alternatively we can cut to your required length - see Custom Cutting

Cut lengths up to 1600mm can be sent by standard courier

Cut lengths longer up to 2400mm can be sent by oversize courier

Cut lengths above 2400mm must be sent by Mainfreight. For heavy freight, your selected delivery address will need to be accessible for a delivery truck, and you will need to have the ability to manage & lift the crate off the truck. Alternatively we can arrange for delivery by Hiab crane truck. There will be an additional fee for this service.

Custom cutting of our V slot aluminium:

We can now cut to your required lengths - add in the length and quantity you require cut. 

Accuracy:

• For lengths between 100mm and 3000mm, we aim for a tolerance of +/- 0.5mm. 
• For other lengths, we aim for a tolerance of +/- 1mm.
• All of each specified length will be cut exactly the same, with clean, square cuts.

(Note: To see the total cost for CUSTOM CUT LENGTHS you need to click into 'checkout' it will not show you the correct value in the cart. Its a annoying quirk we are trying to fix)
