Aluminum Bolt-Together Framing and Fittings
Half the weight of steel, this aluminum framing resists corrosion in wet environments. Rails are drilled with consistently spaced holes for multiple mounting options that do not require machining. Use this bolt-together framing to build guards, tables, and racks.
Rails have bolt holes on all sides. Connect multiple rails with brackets and connectors.
Anodized aluminum rails resist wear and corrosion better than unfinished aluminum rails.
Flanged rails have flanges that run the length of the rail to mount panels, bins, conveyor stops, and other accessories.

Connectors fit inside the rail and are hidden to connect rails to rails with a finished look.
Use the 2 15/16" long connector to connect rails that have been cut and no longer have the standard 3/4" distance between the end of the rail and the center of the first hole.
Caps cover the ends of rails to protect them from dust and damage.
