Product Description

EVT12S-8IN | 8-Inch Aluminum Truss Spacer (12×12 Box Truss Plated)

The EVT12S-8IN Aluminum Truss Spacer is a precision-manufactured 8-inch structural spacer designed specifically for 12-inch square end-plated aluminum truss systems. Manufactured from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, this component provides controlled spacing between truss sections, allowing riggers to achieve exact linear dimensions while maintaining proper alignment and load continuity within the grid.

Function & Compatibility:

Unlike conical systems, the EVT12S series utilizes an industry-standard nut-and-bolt end-plate connection. This spacer features a rigid square profile that matches the geometry of standard 12″ box truss, ensuring a seamless structural transition. It is the ideal solution for fine-tuning truss lengths in touring rigs, lighting grids, and trade show displays where modular precision is required.

Key Features

• Precise Extension: Adds exactly 8 inches to the truss run.
• Included Hardware: Ships complete with 4x Grade 8 Bolts, Nuts, and Washers for immediate, high-strength assembly.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Fabricated from 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy for superior strength-to-weight ratio.
• End-Plated Design: Compatible with EVT12S and other standard 12-inch plated truss systems using bolt connections.
• TÜV Specifications: Fabricated in accordance with strict TUV manufacturing standards.
• Professional Finish: Clean aluminum surface integrates seamlessly with standard silver trussing.

Designed by Evolve Truss, the EVT12S-8IN delivers the reliability and structural consistency demanded by professional production environments.

⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice

❗ Structural Warning: Adding a spacer to a truss run does NOT increase the overall load capacity of the span. The allowable load is determined by the total span length and the weakest component. Do not support loads directly from the spacer connection points.

Important Guidelines for Safe Use:

• Inspect the end plates and bolt holes for deformation or wear before every use.
• Ensure all Grade 8 bolts are properly torqued to manufacturer specifications.
• Do not mix truss components from different manufacturers unless the bolt pattern and plate dimensions have been strictly verified.
• The purchase of this product does not authorize specific installations; a licensed professional engineer shall review all structures, lighting plots, or other aluminum truss uses.

⚠️ Compatibility Warning for Mixed-Brand Builds

Crucial Steps for Safe Assembly:

• Verify Bolt Patterns: Plated truss varies by manufacturer. Compare your existing truss plate dimensions against EVT12S specifications before purchase.
• Check Alignment: Ensure chord alignment is precise to prevent uneven loading on the bolts.
• Mixing incompatible plated truss can lead to structural failure.
