80/20 T-Slots for Van Builds

80/20 is the best material to build a lighter and stronger interior framing system for a van. The lighter framing saves MPG (miles per gallon).  When compared to alternative materials, such as wood, aluminum framing saves space and reduces the weight and bulk of 2X4 or 2X2 wood framing.
80/20 extruded aluminum T-slots can be securely bolted to the support ribs of the van allowing everything else to be securely bolted to the 80/20 framing. Frames can be easily secured to the floor, sides, and roof when building your cabinets, counter tops, or bed tops.  
Building with 80/20 extruded aluminum T-slots is intuitive and modular. 80/20 also doesn’t rot, rust, crack, or change shape with changing heat and humidity, making it a superior option for van builds.
