Product Description
EVT12S-5FT Aluminum Truss Section – 5-Foot Length, 12-Inch Square End-Plated Truss
The EVT12S-5FT Aluminum Truss Section is a precision-engineered 5-foot straight segment designed for 12-inch square end-plated aluminum truss systems. It provides an extended span option ideal for longer runs, overhead structures, and modular layouts while maintaining proper alignment, load continuity, and full compatibility within EVT12S truss systems.
Manufactured from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and fabricated in accordance with TÜV specifications, the EVT12S-5FT delivers dependable structural performance without compromising strength or visual consistency. Its rigid square profile and industry-standard end-plate nut-and-bolt connection system ensure accurate geometry and fast, repeatable assembly in professional production environments.
Finished in a clean brushed aluminum appearance, this truss section integrates seamlessly into lighting, staging, and AV systems where both function and aesthetics matter. It is designed for use with plated 12-inch square truss systems and professional truss hardware in applications such as event production, staging, lighting grids, video wall support structures, trade-show exhibits, touring systems, and modular truss installations.
Key Features
- Truss Length: 5-foot straight truss section for extended spans and efficient system layouts.
- Primary Span Segment: Ideal for reducing connection points in longer truss runs.
- Layout Efficiency: Helps minimize joints while maintaining structural continuity.
- 12-Inch Square Truss Compatibility: Designed specifically for the EVT12S-style end-plated square truss ecosystem.
- Structural Alignment & Load Continuity: Maintains straight truss runs and consistent load paths.
- Industry-Standard End-Plate Connections: Uses standard nut-and-bolt patterns for fast, repeatable assembly.
- Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Built from 6061-T6 aluminum for long service life.
- Clean, Professional Appearance: Brushed aluminum finish integrates seamlessly with existing truss systems.
- Modular & Reusable Design: Essential for touring systems, rental inventories, and reconfigurable truss builds.
The EVT12S-5FT truss section is compatible with standard 50 mm (1.96″) truss clamps and plated square truss accessories, allowing seamless integration into existing EVT12S 12-inch truss ecosystems.
⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice
❗ Critical Load Rating Information: The rated load capacity for this 5-foot segment depends on the complete system configuration and total span length. This truss section is typically not the limiting factor in a properly engineered structure. Always consult the official EVT12S Truss Series Load Tables and a qualified engineer when determining load limits.
Important Guidelines for Safe Use:
- Never exceed the rated load capacity of the truss system.
- No loads shall be supported directly from truss connection points—loads must be distributed properly across the main chords.
- Inspect all truss components before each use. If damage or deformation is present, clearly label as DO NOT USE and remove from service immediately.
- Handle truss components with care—avoid dropping, dragging, or improper stacking.
- Assembly and installation must be performed only by trained and qualified personnel.
- Ensure all nuts, bolts, and connection hardware are correctly installed and securely fastened.
- Account for all applicable forces in system design, including dynamic and transverse forces (e.g., wind loads).
- Do not mix truss components from different manufacturers.
- All truss structures and load-bearing applications must be reviewed and approved by a licensed professional engineer.
⚠️ Compatibility Warning for Mixed-Brand Builds
Crucial Steps for Safe Assembly:
- The EVT12S Truss Series is designed for wide compatibility with industry standards, but you must verify all dimensions for mixed-brand systems.
- Compare your existing truss bolt pattern and plate dimensions against the EVT12S Truss Series specifications before purchase.
- Mixing components from different manufacturers without verification can compromise structural integrity and safety.
