    Gags, try Professional Woodworker Supplies or Timbecon, they both sell T-Track and accessories.

    or sail track from Capral Aluminium in canterbury rd Bayswater NTH, not far from you. Use coach bolts to slide in the track.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I think their sail track is just one size. It's about 20mm wide. But as has been said, give Grahame a call at Woodwork Supplies. He'll have some in stock (it's better than the sail track) and he'll have the sliding stops for it too.
