Aluminium Profile

Aluminium Profiles are a fast and robust method for constructing frames, guards, workstations, conveyors and more. We call profile Industrial Mechano because of the endless possibilities of what you can assemble using the system. Simple connectors mean that profiles can be quickly assembled even with limited experience.

The full range of our profiles with pricing can be found on our Online Store. Below is some of the technical details on the profiles.


Aluminium Profile - Technical Details


Profile Slot Details:

Our profiles generally come in one of the 3 standard slots as shown below. Please contact us if you need more infomation.

6mm Slot - 30 & 60 Series

8mm Slot - 40 & 80 Series

 8mm Slot - 45 & 90 Series



Typical Profile Connections:

Standard Bolt Connection - Using both an Allen Head Screw (Part #ALS.084.301.Bolt ) and Square washer (Part #ALS.084.303.001) screwed into the core hole of the profile, a simple yet strong joint can be made. A small pilot hole is drilled opposite where the joining profile is to go so that the screw can be tightened. This is the standard joint of the Alusic range and is very cost effective. It is not a flexible being able to slide the profiles in the slot as a new pilot hole has to be drilled if the profile is moved. In most cases however this isnt required so this is the most simple and economical connector to use.

In some applications you may also wish to add our Anti-Twist Device (Part ALS.084.303.006) which replaced the square washer in the standard connection. The twin tabs on the device go into the slots of the connecting profile and stop any twisting in the joint. A simple and effective solution.


End Plate Connection - Part # ALS 084 308 003 (for 40mm profiles); ALS 084 308 001 (for 45mm profiles); Allows you to easily slide profiles up and down in the slot via loosening 2 allen-head bolts. The best connector for an adjustable/movable profile.


Part # ALS 084 307 009 - Simple screw clamp connection useful for joins where a cross member may need to be adjusted in the slot. This can be done by loosening the countersunk screw and sliding the profile. Joint is best used where the load is applied down against the connector.


Part # ALS 084 305 011 - Strong 45 degree connection useful for bracing of a standard butt joint
