Overview: The document provides detailed information about the Dexion Slotted Angle Construction Kit, a versatile system for building strong, square structures. It highlights the availability of different angle sizes, their applications, and the necessary components for assembly.

Specifications: The Slotted Angle system includes four sizes of angles: 225 Angle (62mm x 41mm x 2mm), 160 Angle (40mm x 40mm x 2mm), 140 Angle (36mm x 36mm x 1.75mm), and 260 Angle (66mm x 45mm x 2.5mm). These angles can be used for various applications, with 140 and 160 suitable for everyday structures and 225 and 260 for heavy industrial use. A 345 Channel and punched strap are also available for specialized applications.

Components and Tools: The kit includes nuts and bolts, corner plates, and base plates. The Dexion Angle Cutter is recommended for cutting angles to the required length and is available for sale or hire. To calculate the number of nuts and bolts needed, multiply the number of corners or joints by three.

Building Tips: To ensure rigidity, use corner plates on 140 or 160 angles and two bolt fixings on 225 or 260 angles. It is advised to build the sides of a structure first, then join them with horizontal members. Initially, tighten nuts and bolts 'finger tight,' then square up the structure and fully tighten using spanners.

Applications: The Slotted Angle system is used worldwide for constructing benches, display cabinets, safety screens, access platforms, fire barriers, security cages, jigs, test rigs, and more. It is described as an indispensable, do-everything construction system.

Additional Information: A structural handbook is available for more complex designs. For larger or more complicated structures, Dexion Centres offer experienced designers and construction teams to assist with design and build packages.
