ALU profile accessories
aluminum profile
3030 Profile: This refers to an aluminum profile that is 30mm x 30mm in cross-section.
- It is often used for smaller frames, workstations, and lighter structural applications.
4040 Profile: This refers to an aluminum profile that is 40mm x 40mm in cross-section.
- It is typically used for slightly larger and more robust frames and structures, ideal for heavier-duty applications or larger equipment.

| ALU Profile | T-nut Type | T-nut Size | Screw Type | Screw Size | Common Lengths |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1515 | T-nut | M5 | Bolt | M5 | 10mm, 20mm, 30mm |
| 2020 | T-nut | M5 | Bolt | M5 | 10mm, 20mm, 30mm |
| 4040 | T-nut | M6 | Bolt | M6 | 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm |
If you want to use M3 screws with larger extrusions like 1515, 2020, or 4040, you would need to check if there are smaller T-nuts available for those profiles that are designed to accept M3 screws. Generally, M5 or M6 screws are more common in those sizes.
