Easy Build Plate 3×6

$5.89 Inc. GST

This black anodised brushed aluminium plate features a 3×6 hole grid designed to join various V-Slot aluminium extrusions and stabilize structural intersections. It functions as a modular connector and mounting base that establishes precise frame alignment without custom machining. Typical applications include linking extrusion rails and anchoring brackets, sensors, or tooling plates within 3D printers, CNC machines, and custom automation rigs. The hole array layout provides flexible positioning for auxiliary components across structural framing assemblies.

Description

Technical Overview

The easy build plate serves as a modular hardware connector designed to join various profiles and sizes of V-Slot aluminum extrusions. This plate provides a structural foundation that allows for numerous assembly configurations within a mechanical system. Featuring a grid arrangement of mounting holes, the plate simplifies the process of mounting various peripherals and components directly to an extrusion frame.

The plate acts as both a standard base and a connector. It integrates directly with V-Slot tracks and other compatible hardware elements to secure joints and stabilize structural intersections. The layout of the plate ensures precise alignment across assemblies, offering a reliable fastening solution for custom machinery builds.

Applications

Builders install easy build plates across a wide range of modular mechanical structures, including 3D printers, CNC machines, and custom automation rigs. These plates provide a practical way to link multiple extrusion rails or anchor additional components to a pre-existing frame without custom machining.

During installation, the plate is positioned across the extrusion faces and secured using standard fasteners. The layout offers flexibility for adding brackets, sensors, or custom tooling plates to a frame assembly. Additionally, the anodized black brushed aluminum finish provides wear resistance, making the plate suitable for light-to-medium industrial machinery and structural framing.

Note: The “3×6” designation denotes the structural hole array configuration rather than the overall dimensional measurements of the plate material.

Maker Store Tips and Tricks

When aligning multiple V-Slot profiles, loosely thread all low-profile screws into your tee nuts before performing the final torque sequence to ensure parallel alignment.
Use the integrated 10mm hole centers to map out custom sensor configurations or secondary wire management brackets before mounting the plate.
Ensure your chosen fastener length accounts for both the thickness of this aluminum plate and the depth of the extrusion slot to prevent bottoming out.
