Self-tapping countersunk screw for cubic connector
The cubic connector is screwed onto the profile ends with one screw per profile: this self-tapping screw creates its own thread in the central hole, with no machining. The S6x16 is tightened to 10 Nm, the S8x25 to 25 Nm. It is the screw to pair with the cubic connector sold without screws, or as a spare.
Why choose it
No tapping
Forms its own thread in the central hole of the profile.
For the cubic connector
One screw for each profile meeting the cube.
Conductive
Zinc-plated steel, suitable for ESD structures.

One for each profile: two for the 2-way cubic connector, three for the 3-way one.
For the 40x40, 45x45 and 50x50 sections use the S12x30 self-tapping screw, tightened to 35 Nm. This screw is only for the 20x20 and 30x30 sections.
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.
