A track fitting assembly for engagement with an L-track is disclosed herein. The track fitting assembly includes an anchor with at least one, but preferably three track engaging lugs extending from each side of the anchor. The anchor includes a load beam whose cross-section is larger than the anchor portion not comprising the load beam. The top surface of the load beam rises above the top surface of the track. A stud extending upwards from the load beam, and because it sits above the track, the diameter of the stud is not limited by the narrowed portions of the L-Track or the load beam. The track fitting assembly also includes a locking mechanism comprising at least one index member on each side, wherein the index members fit between the lugs of the anchor. The locking mechanism comprises an opening for receiving one or both of the load beam and the stud. A nut secures hardware to the track fitting assembly through engagement with the stud.
