What profile connections does MUNK offer?
MUNK supplies the complete range: corner brackets, mounting brackets, gusset plates, ZIG connectors, M5-M8 T-slot nuts and pan head screws for all T-slot sizes.
How does the T-slot connection system work?
T-slots serve as continuous guide rails into which slot nuts or sliding nuts are inserted or swivelled. These elements have a metric thread (M4-M12) into which screws engage. Connections are tightened with Allen or Torx tools.
Can the connections be expanded at a later date?
Yes, the T-slot system allows for expansion or modification at any time. Swing-in slot nuts can be integrated into existing structures without complete disassembly.
