WHAT OTHERS SAY
“The best price for 2020 aluminium profile on the market, extremely fast shipping, and it came with a sweet and a sticker!!
The packaging was amazing and protected the product from any damage. 11/10″
By Mats
“Have you ever used a service that has left you with the thought “Why have I not been using this for years”? Ooznest will leave you with that thought…”
By Richard
“I ordered 12 lengths of 3 sizes of black anodised 4040 extrusion on the 14th at 2140, I received them on the 16th I believe. Incredible product, service and tolerance on length.”

Customisation Guide
We offer a broad selection of customisation options for our aluminium extrusions.
Read the guidelines below for help choosing the correct customisations for your project.
1.0 - Extrusion Colour
Choose from Silver or Black colour extrusion.
Please be aware that black is more susceptible to showing surface imperfections on the colour finish.
2.0 - Required Length
Required length is the total length of the extrusion in millimetres (mm).
If you are having angle cuts, the required length should include these angles, measured from vertex to vertex.
Extrusions will be cut with a tolerance of +/- 0.2mm.
3.0 - Angle Cutting Service
Choose the type of Angle Cutting you require based on the table below.
| Angle Cutting Service | Description | Diagram |
|---|---|---|
| NO ANGLES | The extrusion will be cut 90° at each end |  |
| SINGLE ANGLE | The extrusion will be cut to Angle A at one end |  |
| DOUBLE ANGLES | The extrusion will be cut to Angle A at one end, and Angle B at the other end |  |
| OPPOSING ANGLES | The extrusion will be cut to Angle A at one end, and Angle B at the other end |  |
3.1 - Angle Face
Choose the face of the extrusion that you want the angles, either wide face or narrow face.
For Double or Opposing Angles, the angles must be on the same face.
3.2/3.3 - Angle A / Angle B
Specify the desired degree for the angles. The angle is measured at its vertex as per the diagrams under 3.0.
Angle degree must be an integer value from 30° to 89°.
Angles will be cut with a tolerance of +/- 0.25°.
4.0 - M5 Tapping Service
Choose if you want the end holes of the extrusion profile tapped ready to accept a bolt.
Holes are tapped with an M5x0.8mm thread, 10mm deep.
Ends with an angle cut cannot be tapped.
If you choose 'Single Angle' cutting service and Tapping service, the straight cut end will be tapped (not the angle cut end).

Technical Drawing
Loads & Deflections
The subsequent tables illustrate the maximum loads and deflections for the 20x60 T/V-Slot Aluminium Extrusion under various load conditions.
To calculate the beam deflections, the formulas provided in this resource have been used: https://mechanicalc.com/reference/beam-deflection-tables
For additional assistance, a helpful beam deflection calculator is available at: https://deflection.app/?language=en
To calculate the maximum column load, the formulas provided in this resource have been used: https://tribby3d.com/blog/column-buckling/ (A value of 1.3 has been used for K)
Please be aware that the figures provided are indicative only. They primarily consider beam/column deflection under load. However, real-world performance of a beam/column can also be influenced by factors such as shear stress, bending stress, torsion, buckling, fatigue, resonance, and the specific material properties of the beam/column. Therefore, it is strongly advised to conduct personal design calculations and consider these additional factors to ensure the chosen profile is suitable for the specific application. Furthermore, we recommend applying appropriate safety factors for your industry to these calculated values. Common safety factors range between 2 and 3 for non-critical applications, providing an additional margin of safety against unforeseen circumstances or inaccuracies in the calculations.
Upright vs Flat
Because the aluminium extrusion profile is not square, the deflections are contingent upon the orientation of the extrusion and the direction of the applied load. We categorize these orientations as either an 'Upright Beam' or a 'Flat Beam', as illustrated in the accompanying diagram. The following tables provide the deflection values for both these orientations.
