The Opportunity
$47 Billion Market
Stuck in 1976
The entire aluminum framing industry relies on friction-based connections invented nearly 50 years ago. We're replacing T-slot everywhere with mechanically locking technology.
The Problem
- • T-slot relies on friction alone
- • Vibration causes loosening
- • $600+/year maintenance
- • No innovation since 1976
The Solution
- • 5-plane mechanical lock
- • Self-tightens under load
- • Zero maintenance forever
- • 150+ patents protect it
The Result
- • 7x stronger than T-slot
- • 92% lower lifetime cost
- • 2x faster assembly
- • Growing 50% annually

The Inventor
Frank Oetlinger
Founder & CEO
In 1995, Frank was running Blanking Systems, serving high-speed presses when he identified a critical problem: structural components kept vibrating loose.
Every framing system relied on friction. Frank realized that was fundamentally wrong. Friction fails. Always.
So he invented a joint that uses angled contact planes to create a mechanical lock — one that tightens under vibration instead of loosening.
Three decades and 150 personal patents later, that insight has become AngleLock.
