Aluminum L-track

Space has become a major challenge since people started using their vans and trailers as homes on wheels. Builders have learned to use every inch of space in the car to secure and store items. They also learned that anything needs to be secured inside the car or it will roll up to the floor. For professional and DIY camper builders, durable, low-profile tie-down systems like the aluminum L-track are great value for money.

Strength

Aluminum L-Tracks, also known as airline Tracks, tick all the boxes. For decades, airlines have used this L-track style fitting to secure aircraft seats. The fact that aircraft manufacturers believe it can protect passengers inside the plane — no matter their size — speaks to its strength and durability. A “typical American” bouncing off the ceiling of a commercial airliner because of equipment malfunction could spark a huge lawsuit.

Weight

The use of an L- track on an aircraft also speaks to its light weight. it takes. The weight of 12 or more metal bars and the length of an airliner can get heavy very quickly. Airplanes can’t take a heavy load. Light weight is also important in motorhomes, overland vehicles, campers, and camper trailers. Being overweight hurts fuel consumption and raises the center of gravity. The light weight of the aluminum L-track makes it ideal for this application.

Aluminum L-track Profile

Another benefit of the L-track is its low profile. In applications where space is at a premium, the L-track uses almost no space. The L-track is fastened to a flat surface and takes up almost no space, but has multiple whiplash points per foot, making its storage potential limitless. The amazing strength of the aluminum L-track makes it perfect for strapping heavy objects to the floor, wall, or even ceiling of your camper trailer.
