Congrats!Do happen to have a list of all you purchased for aluminum l, have the same tank and am looking to do something similar
I hope this helps. Since I'm not sure about your experience with 80/20, I'll share from my own limited experience with it when I first started. I hope this list with explanations is helpful. Feel free to ask if you have any questions; I'm open to help.
TYPE | DETAILS | QUANTITY |
Height Bar | 1515-LS SKU: 1515-LS 1.50” X 1.50” Lite Smooth Surface T-Slotted Profile - Four Open T-Slots Length - from floor to how hight you like the height of the light mount to accommodate. 70" inches works for me not accounting for the 5" baseboard from floor. Makes my Height Bar 75" total height. | 1 |
Center Horizontal Bar (main support bar for your Width Center and Horizontal bars) | 1515-LS SKU: 1515-LS 1.50” X 1.50” Lite Smooth Surface T-Slotted Profile - Four Open T-Slots Counterbores - 1 x 7040 x $3.72 Length - measure from WALL to edge of the FRONT of the TANK. ENSURE you ADD COUNTERBORES to the unit so that you can anchor this to the Height Bar | 1 |
Center Support Bar | 1515-LS SKU: 1515-LS 1.50” X 1.50” Lite Smooth Surface T-Slotted Profile - Four Open T-Slots Length - width of the tank from left to right. This is your main support bar for the 4 Support Bar | 1 |
Support Bar (covering top of tank) | 1515-LS SKU: 1515-LS 1.50” X 1.50” Lite Smooth Surface T-Slotted Profile - Four Open T-Slots Length - width of the tank back to front. These plus the Center Horizontal Bar will make 5 bars where you can mount your equipment to above the tank. | 4 |
Additional support for Height Bar and Center Horizontal Bar | 4336 SKU: 4336 15 Series & Ready Tube 4 Hole - Tall Gusseted Inside Corner Bracket Note: it might be more support than needed but since everything is hanging off of the Center Horizontal Bar, it's best to safe than sorry imo. | 1 |
Additional 90 degree support for Height Bar and Center Horizontal Bar | 4351 SKU: 4351 15 Series & Ready Tube 5 Hole - 90 Degree Angled Flat Plate Note: it might be more support than needed but since everything is hanging off of the Center Horizontal Bar, it's best to safe than sorry imo. | 2 |
Anchors Height Bar against drywall | 4302 SKU: 4302 15 Series & Ready Tube 2 Hole - Inside Corner Bracket NOTE: I installed 3 anchor points agains the wall. One Top. One Bottom. One Center. This is to hold it against the wall only. All weight will really be on the Floor or your Baseboard. | 6+ |
Anchors for Support Bar and Center Support Bar | 4332 SKU: 4332 15 Series & Ready Tube 2 Hole - Gusseted Inside Corner Bracket Note: Would need 2 for each Bar you connect together to ensure stability. Mininum 10 recommended (5 bars * 2). I would get a few extra. | 10+ |
Bolts | 3320 SKU: 3320 Bolt Assembly: 5/16-18 x .687" Black FBHSCS with Slide-In Economy T-Nut - Offset Thread - Black Zinc NOTE: Need lots. One for every hole for the item you plan to put together. Get extra for mounting other equipments | 40+ |
Cable management (helpful) | 12319 SKU: 12319 15 & 40 Series Drop-In Cable & Tube Clip NOTE: Get more than you think you need imo. | 16+ |
