The Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 is a heavy-duty base plate designed to provide outstanding stability, load distribution, and structural integrity for Series 8 aluminium profile constructions. Manufactured from high-quality diecast zinc, this robust endplate is engineered for industrial environments where strength, durability, and precision are essential.
Designed specifically for the widely used Series 8 aluminium profile system, this component is ideal for machine frames, workstations, guarding systems, enclosures, and modular structures that demand reliable floor mounting or adjustable foot and castor integration. Its 80mm x 80mm footprint aligns perfectly with the 40mm-based Series 8 extrusion geometry, ensuring a clean, professional finish every time.
Engineered for the Series 8 Aluminium Profile System
The Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 has been purpose-built to integrate seamlessly with the Series 8 aluminium profile range. Series 8 profiles are based on a 40mm core and feature an 8mm T-slot, making them one of the most versatile and commonly specified aluminium extrusion systems in industrial and commercial applications.
This endplate is precision-cast to match the profile dimensions exactly, allowing it to sit flush against the extrusion face. The result is enhanced load transfer, improved rigidity, and reduced stress on fixings compared to smaller or mismatched base plates.
Heavy-Duty Diecast Zinc Construction
Strength and longevity are at the heart of the Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8. Diecast zinc offers exceptional compressive strength and impact resistance, making it far superior to plastic or light alloy alternatives when used in demanding environments.
The zinc construction also provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring reliable performance in workshops, factories, warehouses, and semi-outdoor installations. This makes the endplate suitable for applications where moisture, oils, or temperature variations may be present.
M16 Thread for Feet and Castors
A key feature of the Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 is the centrally positioned M16 threaded hole. This allows for the direct fitting of adjustable levelling feet, swivel feet, or heavy-duty castors, giving users maximum flexibility when configuring their structures.
The M16 thread is ideal for high load ratings and fine height adjustment, making it perfect for levelling machine frames, production benches, conveyor systems, and inspection tables. Whether the structure needs to remain fixed or mobile, this endplate provides a solid and adaptable foundation.
Improved Load Distribution and Stability
Using the Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 significantly improves load distribution across the base of the aluminium profile. The wider contact area reduces point loading on floors and enhances overall stability, particularly in tall or heavily loaded frameworks.
This is especially important in applications such as guarding systems, automation frames, and industrial enclosures, where vibration control and rigidity are critical for safety and performance.
Simple Installation and Secure Fixing
The Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 is designed for fast and straightforward installation. It mounts directly to the end of Series 8 aluminium profiles using standard profile fixings, eliminating the need for custom drilling or additional machining.
Once installed, the endplate provides a secure interface between the profile and any foot or castor assembly, ensuring long-term reliability even under repeated movement or load changes.
Versatile Applications Across Industries
Thanks to its robust design and precise compatibility, the Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 is used across a wide range of industries and applications, including:
- Industrial machine frames and automation systems
- Modular workstations and assembly benches
- Conveyor frames and material handling equipment
- Safety guarding and perimeter fencing
- Inspection tables and testing rigs
- Mobile frames using heavy-duty castors
Its adaptability makes it a core component for any modular aluminium profile build using Series 8 extrusions.
Designed for Professional Modular Builds
When building with Series 8 aluminium profiles, consistency and component quality matter. The Endplate 80mm x 80mm M16 Diecast Zinc – Series 8 delivers a professional finish while enhancing the structural performance of your framework.
Unlike lightweight base plates, the mass and rigidity of diecast zinc help dampen vibration and improve overall frame stiffness. This makes it particularly well-suited for precision equipment, production environments, and applications where alignment is critical.
