Maker Store Type 30 T-Track – Silver
Introducing Maker Store’s most recent innovation – A better Type 30 T-Track Design!
Our all-new Maker Store Type 30 T-Track can be used with our Type 30 compatible Hold Down Clamps and other Type 30 accessories. T-Tracks are widely used in woodworking, metalworking and other industrial and non-industrial fields, particularly as spoilerboards. They are used to secure and stabilise the workpiece allowing you to perform various operations while your workpiece never moves! This is a fantastic tool by itself. However, as huge fans of T-Track, the Maker Store engineering team has designed this T-Track to solve the shortcomings of regular T-Track. Let’s dive into what we’ve made!
Please Note:

New and improved Maker Store Type 30 T-Track profile
The new T-Track design is both functional and practical. One of its standout features is the thin slot running along its entire length, which provides enough clearance for the heads of certain screws to sit flush within the channel. This feature is particularly beneficial for users who previously had to deal with various standards for countersunk screws and hoped that they would match the countersink hole designed in standard T-Tracks. The mismatch between the countersunk screw and the countersink hole in the T-Track can affect the mounting of T-Track Nuts or Clamps. By ensuring that the screws sit flush with the new Maker Store Design, the track maintains a clean, streamlined surface, enhancing both the look and performance of the T-Track.
We’ve also opted to include a V-shaped groove directly along the centre of the T-Track. This seemingly small detail has a big impact. Anyone who has installed T-Tracks knows the frustration when pursuing to increase its rigidity by adding extra aligned holes – measuring, marking, and hoping everything lines up perfectly. This groove takes away all that hassle. It serves as a guide for your drill bit, so you no longer have to spend time painstakingly measuring or worrying about your holes being off-centre. Just place your drill bit into the groove and go. It’s a simple yet brilliant feature that not only speeds up installation but also ensures that the result is more accurate.
For those who use T-Tracks in their work, whether for jigs, fixtures, or tool mounting, this redesign offers a smoother, more reliable experience. The flush-fitting bolts and drill alignment groove combine to create a system that’s faster and easier to work with. There’s no more second-guessing whether your measurements are off, and no more adjustments needed to accommodate bolt heads that don’t quite fit.
