The T-slot square box is a high-precision cast iron tool used primarily for the assembly, positioning, clamping, and inspection of workpieces in machining, measurement, and fabrication environments. With precision-machined surfaces and integrated T-slots, it provides a stable, adjustable base for securing components in vertical or horizontal orientations.
Material & Construction
Manufactured from high-quality cast iron, usually HT200 or HT250, the T-slot square box is engineered for high wear resistance and dimensional stability. The casting undergoes stress-relieving treatments such as natural aging or artificial annealing to eliminate internal stresses, ensuring minimal deformation during long-term use.
Design Features
Precision Machined Surfaces: All working faces, especially the inside and outside surfaces, are finely machined or hand-scraped to meet strict flatness and squareness tolerances.
Integrated T-Slots: T-slots are precision-machined into the surfaces, typically on the top and one or more vertical faces, to allow for flexible clamping and positioning of fixtures, jigs, or workpieces.
Strong Ribbed Structure: The internal design includes reinforcing ribs or cavity structures, providing a high strength-to-weight ratio while maintaining rigidity and preventing warping.
Anti-rust Treatment: All precision surfaces are treated with anti-corrosion oil or preserved with a rust-inhibiting coating to ensure long-term durability.
Functional Applications
Used as a right-angle fixture for clamping workpieces during machining, welding, or inspection.
Ideal for assembling and aligning mechanical parts that require strict 90° angular positioning.
Serves as a base or support for horizontal boring machines, drilling machines, and milling machines.
Commonly used in workshops, assembly lines, tool rooms, and inspection laboratories.
Advantages
High Accuracy: Ensures reliable measurement and precise component positioning.
Multi-functional: Suitable for both vertical and horizontal clamping setups.
Customizable: Available in standard and non-standard sizes, with T-slot dimensions configurable to meet specific fixture or machine requirements.
Long-lasting Performance: With strong structural design and high-grade cast iron, it offers exceptional durability and resistance to deformation.
Size Range
T-slot square boxes are typically produced in sizes ranging from 200×200mm to 1000×1000mm, with various configurations of T-slots. Custom sizes, special hole patterns, or surface treatments can be provided according to the customer's specific needs.
The T-slot square box is an indispensable tool in precision engineering, offering both flexibility and accuracy in a wide range of industrial and manufacturing processes.
