Valuframe - The Economy Aluminium Profile System.

Slot Nuts.

Slot nuts for use in Valuframe profile systems are specially designed to fit securely in the profile slot. This highly efficient system avoids the need to have additional nut types to cater for unforeseen circumstances. There are a variety of designs available and not all are shown here. For the vast majority of applications you can get by with the standard Slot Nut so that is what we normally recommend.

Valuframe slot nuts are the basis of the modular aluminium profile assembly system. Slot nuts need to be versatile, flexible and economical. Valuframe slot nuts encompass all 3 of these essential factors. Some systems use slot nuts that can only slide in from the end of the profile, but what if the frame has been built up and you need to insert a new slot nut? Valuframe slot nuts can be inserted from the end of the profile and also from the front. There is even a small sprung ball in the base that pushes the slot nut to the front of the slot to prevent the nut dropping down when the profile is vertical. Standard slot nuts have a flat front face but there is an option to have a keyed version that locates into the slot with more precision. Some of these features are expensive add-ons in other systems, not with Valuframe.

Valuframe slot nuts can be inserted into the profile slot from the profile end, but also through the front of the slot as shown below. The sprung ball in the rear secures the Slot Nut in position when inserted into vertical profiles without the need for additional shims or springs.
