EVT12S-8IN

Product Description

EVT12S-8IN Aluminum Truss Section – 8-Inch Length, 12-Inch Square End-Plated Truss

The EVT12S-8IN Aluminum Truss Section is a precision-engineered 8-inch straight segment designed for 12-inch square end-plated aluminum truss systems. It is used to achieve fine-length adjustments within truss runs while maintaining proper alignment, load continuity, and full modular compatibility across EVT12S truss builds.

Manufactured from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and fabricated in accordance with TÜV specifications, the EVT12S-8IN 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 aluminum surface, this truss section integrates seamlessly into lighting, staging, and AV systems where precision and professional presentation are required. 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: 8-inch straight truss section for precise system layout control.
• 12-Inch Square Truss Compatibility: Designed specifically for EVT12S-style end-plated square truss systems.
• Structural Alignment & Load Continuity: Maintains straight truss runs and consistent load paths.
• Industry-Standard End-Plate Connections: Uses standard nut-and-bolt bolt patterns for plated square truss.
• Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Built from 6061-T6 aluminum for long-term strength and reliability.
• Precision Integration: Ideal for tight layouts where standard-length truss sections are not suitable.
• Modular & Reusable Design: Suitable for touring systems, rental inventories, and reconfigurable builds.

The EVT12S-8IN 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 for Truss Spacers: While this spacer component is structurally sound, adding a spacer to a truss run does NOT increase the overall load capacity of the span. The allowable load of any truss system is determined by the total span length, system configuration, and the weakest component in the structure. Always consult applicable truss load tables and a licensed professional engineer when determining load limits.

Important Guidelines for Safe Use:

• Never exceed the rated load capacity of the complete truss system when using spacers.
• Do not support loads directly from truss or spacer connection points—loads must be properly distributed across the main chords.
• Inspect all truss and spacer components before each use. If damage, deformation, or excessive wear is present, clearly label as DO NOT USE and remove from service immediately.
• Handle truss and spacer components with care—avoid dropping, dragging, impact loading, or improper stacking.
• Assembly and installation must be performed only by trained and qualified personnel familiar with aluminum truss systems.
• Ensure all nuts, bolts, and connection hardware are installed correctly and securely fastened in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
• Account for all applicable forces in system design, including static, dynamic, and transverse forces (e.g., wind loads).
• Do not mix truss or spacer components with parts from other manufacturers unless compatibility has been verified.
• All truss structures, rigging plans, 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.
