Black Cup and Tool Holder with Closed Bottom – for Series 30, 40 and 45 Aluminium Profiles

The cup holder with a closed bottom is a practical and versatile accessory designed for mounting on structural aluminium profiles. It can be used for a bottle, cup, sports bottle, technical container, tools or small accessories required during work or while using a Sim Racing setup.

The closed bottom helps prevent stored items from falling out and makes it possible to hold smaller accessories safely. The open top provides quick access to the contents, allowing the product to be used both as a cup holder for aluminium profiles and as a compact tool organiser.

The product is manufactured from glass-fibre-reinforced PA6. The material provides a rigid and durable construction suitable for everyday use in industrial, technical, workshop and gaming applications. The black colour complements both black and natural aluminium profiles.

The holder can be mounted on aluminium profiles from Series 30, 40 and 45. Installation uses a plastic mounting rail, which is first screwed into the profile slot. The main body of the cup holder is then slid onto the rail. The screws and T-slot nuts must be selected according to the slot width and geometry of the chosen profile series.

Universal Holder for Drinks, Tools and Accessories

The black holder with a closed bottom can perform different functions depending on the type of structure and the user’s needs. It works as a practical organiser mounted directly to the frame of a workstation, machine, workshop trolley or Sim Rig cockpit.

The holder can be used for:

• bottles, cups and sports bottles of suitable dimensions,
• oil containers and technical products,
• screwdrivers, spanners and small hand tools,
• markers, pens and assembly accessories,
• screws, fittings and small parts placed in an additional container,
• Sim Racing accessories needed while using the setup.

Before placing a cup, bottle, container or tool in the holder, make sure its dimensions allow it to remain stable inside the holder.

Installing the Cup Holder on an Aluminium Profile

Installation is completed in two stages. First, the plastic mounting rail is screwed into the slot of the structural aluminium profile. Place two appropriately selected T-slot nuts in the profile slot, position the rail in the required location and secure it using two compatible M5 screws.

Once the rail has been securely attached to the profile, slide the body of the cup holder onto the mounting rail. Slide it on evenly and make sure it is correctly seated along the full length of the mounting section.

The two mounting points stabilise the rail and reduce the risk of the holder rotating or moving during use. Before fully tightening the screws, the height and position of the rail can be adjusted to suit the structure and the user’s preferences.

The screw length and type of T-slot nut depend on the selected profile series. Using the correct mounting kit ensures that the plastic rail is clamped securely to the structure and provides a durable, repeatable connection.

Mounting on Series 30 Aluminium Profiles

For Series 30 aluminium profiles with an 8 mm T-slot, we recommend:

• 2× ISO 10642-M5x16
• 2× 8-4-M5.30

The countersunk screws sit flush and neatly in the holes of the plastic mounting rail. The 8-4-M5.30 T-slot nuts are designed for Series 30 aluminium profiles. After securing the rail, slide the body of the holder onto it.

Mounting on Series 40 Aluminium Profiles

For Series 40 aluminium profiles with an 8 mm T-slot, we recommend:

• 2× ISO 10642-M5x20
• 2× 8-4-M5.40

The 8-4-M5.40 T-slot nuts are designed for Series 40 aluminium profiles. The ISO 10642 M5×20 screws allow the plastic mounting rail to be clamped correctly against the profile while maintaining a clean connection finish. Once the rail has been secured, slide the holder onto it.

Mounting on Series 45 Aluminium Profiles

For Series 45 aluminium profiles with a 10 mm T-slot, we recommend:

• 2× ISO 10642-M5x20
• 2× 10-4-M5.45

The 10-4-M5.45 T-slot nuts are designed for the 10 mm T-slot used in Series 45 aluminium profiles. The correct mounting components allow the plastic rail to be fixed securely, after which the body of the cup holder is slid onto the rail.

The ball-loaded T-slot nuts remain in position inside the profile slot, making it easier to position and fasten the mounting rail. The complete holder can later be repositioned by removing the holder body, loosening the screws, sliding the rail along the slot and tightening it again.

Applications of the Cup and Tool Holder

The cup holder for aluminium profiles can be used wherever a convenient and easily accessible place is required for a bottle, cup, tools or small equipment.

Typical applications include:

• Sim Racing cockpits and driving simulator setups,
• workstations and assembly stations made from aluminium profiles,
• workshop trolleys and mobile structures,
• machine and industrial equipment frames,
• production and inspection stations,
• shelving, technical tables and workshop structures,
• custom projects made from Series 30, 40 or 45 profiles.

The holder can be installed in a location that is easily accessible to the user. If the workstation layout changes, the mounting rail can be moved or transferred to another profile without permanently modifying the structure.

The black cup and tool holder with a closed bottom is a practical solution for users looking for convenient storage, quick installation and an attractive addition to structures made from Series 30, 40 and 45 aluminium profiles.
