40x80 Aluminium V Slot Extrusion
Silver satin anodised
Made in New Zealand.
We initially developed this extrusion for our own use in our plants and machinery. It is a solid section at about 3KG 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.
Mill orders can also be cut to your required lengths (up to 6.5m maximum), and supplied in mill finish, anodised multiple colours, or powdercoated to your requirements.
Please note this is intended as an industrial product, and as such the anodising finish may have cosmetic lines near the ends from the 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 longer than 1600mm must be sent by heavy freight, not standard courier ($65 for North Island and $75 for South Island addresses). Shorter cut lengths can be sent by courier at much lower rates.
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.
