Block 12TO12 – Guide-rail block, compact 12 × 20 × 10 mm (Vertex)
A Block 12TO12 engineered as a compact guide-rail block for precise positioning and secure mounting in fixtures and small-scale assemblies
- Compact dimensions 12 x 20 x 10 mm
- Machined from S45C structural steel
- Threaded T-slot M4 for secure mounting
- Supplied as a set of 4 components
Precise alignment in minimal space
The compact 12 x 20 x 10 mm footprint delivers accurate positioning where space is restricted, ensuring consistent alignment without bulky hardware. Manufactured from S45C, a medium-carbon steel known for its machinability and strength, the component provides a stable base for repetitive operations and light assembly tasks. The design focuses on dimensional consistency and precision, reducing set-up time and minimising the need for frequent re-adjustments in jigs and fixtures.
Secure fixing and straightforward integration
A threaded T‑slot with M4 engagement enables direct, vibration-resistant fastening to standard guide rails and carrier plates. Supplied as a set of 4, the components simplify procurement for multi-point installations and replace worn blocks in matched groups to maintain parallelism. At 0.07 kg per block the low mass aids handling and keeps dynamic loads low, which benefits automated or semi-automated setups where minimised moving mass improves cycle stability.
Robust performance for workshop use
Designed for everyday workshop and light industrial environments, the block combines a machinable base material with a finish suitable for sliding and clamping applications on guide rail systems. The construction balances wear resistance with the ability to be reworked or adapted on conventional machine tools, supporting long service life and straightforward maintenance. The Vertex provenance signals consistent production standards, while compatibility with common mounting conventions keeps integration predictable and efficient.
