Aluminium strut profile 30x45

The 30x45 has a 30 × 45 mm section with 8 mm and 10 mm slots: you can fix accessories of both sizes to it. It is useful where a series 30 structure meets components for 10 mm slots, or for light frames that must carry C10 accessories. It weighs 1.1 kg/m and the central hole can be tapped M8.

Why choose it

Two slot sizes

C8 and C10 accessories on the same profile.

Lightweight

1.1 kg/m: for light frames and structures.

M8 central hole

M8 thread at the end as standard machining; D7.8, D9.8, D11 and D17 holes in the slots.

It depends on the slot: C8 nuts and screws in the 8 mm slots, C10 in the 10 mm ones. The dimensioned drawing with the slot positions is in the attached catalogue pages: check it before ordering accessories.

The grey cover cap for 30x45 profile (also available in black ESD, on request).

With the 45 mm side in the load direction: Ix 8.1 cm⁴ versus 3.9 crosswise, about double.

It is the width of the profile slot and determines which accessories you use. Slot C6 (6 mm) is for 20 series profiles, C8 (8 mm) for the 30 series, C10 (10 mm) for profiles from the 40 series upwards. Nuts, screws, brackets and cover caps are chosen by slot: each accessory's product page shows the right one.

Yes. You can order the full bar or the piece cut to the length you need: we do the cutting ourselves, in our workshop. Each profile's product page shows the maximum bar length and the minimum cut length.

Look at the moments of inertia Ix and Iy: the higher they are, the less the profile deflects under load. For the same section, “L” profiles are lightened and deflect a little more. For long spans or high loads move to a larger section or a tall profile (e.g. 45x90 instead of 45x45). If you send us drawing and loads, we will check the choice.

The T-nut is inserted from the front into the slot, even in an assembled structure, and positions itself when you tighten the screw: it is the standard choice for fixing accessories. The sliding block withstands higher forces, but normally has to be inserted from the profile end before closing the frame; spring versions stay where you put them.

The simplest way is the bracket, which joins two profiles at 90° with screws and nuts in the slot, without machining. For end, T, 45° or three-way connections there are dedicated connectors, some of which require profile machining as stated on their product page.

Yes, for several accessories (for example cover caps, hinges and nuts) there are conductive ESD versions, indicated in the name or variant. Tell us which EPA area you work in and we will confirm the components to use.

On each product page you will find the MGE catalogue pages to download as PDF, with dimensioned drawings and technical data; the Specifications tab shows the data for the variant you have chosen.

Yes. Send us the parts list or a sketch with dimensions: we give you codes, quantities and cut lengths and prepare the kit with profiles already cut and the accessories.
