80/20 Inc. 40-4307 Aluminum Joining Strip 40 Series

Product Description

The 80/20 INC. 40-4307 is a clear-anodized aluminum joining strip designed for use in 40 Series T-slot framing assemblies. At 80 inches long with a 6.00 mm (approximately 0.236 inches) thickness and two mounting holes, it connects and aligns structural framing members with a 2-degree drop-lock mechanism that allows infinite positioning along the strip. The flat plate profile keeps the joint low-profile and stable. This part is typically installed by maintenance technicians, machine builders, and fabricators working with modular aluminum framing systems.

The 40-4307 joining strip is suited for linear framing connections in workstations, machine guards, enclosures, conveyor frames, and other modular structures built on 80/20 INC. 40 Series extrusion. The drop-lock design allows the strip to be repositioned and reused without damage, making it a practical choice for assemblies that require periodic reconfiguration. It is used in conjunction with the 80/20 INC. Bolt Kit 75-3422 for secure fastening.

Key Features

• 2-degree drop-lock mechanism for secure, repeatable connections
• Infinite positioning along the strip length allows flexible layout without fixed hole spacing

Compatibility

Designed for use with 80/20 INC. 40 Series T-slot framing extrusions. Requires Bolt Kit 75-3422 for proper installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machine builders or fabricators familiar with T-slot aluminum framing systems. Disconnect or de-energize any associated equipment before modifying a structural frame. Standard hand tools are sufficient for assembly with the corresponding bolt kit. Ensure mating extrusion faces are clean and free of debris before seating the joining strip to achieve proper drop-lock engagement.
