Product Description

30″ x 30″ Steel Base Plate | Heavy Duty Raised Truss Stabilizer (EVT12S-BP30SR2)

The EVT12S-BP30SR2 Steel Stabilizing Base Plate is a massive 30-inch square foundation designed for high-stability rigging applications. Unlike standard flat plates, this unit features a 9mm thick steel slab mounted on a 2-inch raised frame. This precision-welded frame enhances rigidity, prevents warping, and elevates the structure slightly off the ground to reduce surface wear.

Function & Compatibility:

Weighing in at 121 lbs (54.88 kg), this plate acts as a significant counterweight for taller towers and arches. It is constructed from industrial-grade Q235 Steel with a durable Matte Black Powder Coat finish. It features a universal mounting pattern compatible with EVT12S, EVT20S, and EVT290S truss systems, along with a single 1.5″ Schedule 40 pipe flange in the center for pipe-and-base applications.

Key Features

• Heavy Ballast Weight: At 121 lbs, provides maximum ground stability for vertical structures.
• Raised Frame Design: 9mm steel plate on a 2″ welded frame prevents flexing and simplifies handling on uneven surfaces.
• 4x Laser-Cut Handles: Integrated handles on all four sides allow for easier team lifting and repositioning.
• Universal Slot Design: Compatible with 12″ Plated, 20.5″ Plated, and 290mm Conical truss systems.
• Matte Black Finish: Professional anti-reflective coating ideal for production environments.
• Center Flange: Includes one flange for 1.5″ Schedule 40 pipe (approx 1.9″ OD).

Designed by Evolve Truss (Distributed by Truss Genius), this plate comes installation-ready with necessary hardware for immediate mounting.

⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice

❗ Critical Stability Information:

• Heavy Lift Warning: This plate weighs 121 lbs. Always use a two-person lift or mechanical assistance to move it to avoid injury.
• Usage: While heavy, this plate does not replace the need for additional ballast (sandbags) on tall structures or outdoor setups exposed to wind.
• Inspection: Check welds on the raised frame for stress cracks before every use.

Important Guidelines for Safe Use:

• Ensure all bolts (for plated truss) or half-couplers (for conical truss) are fully tightened using the provided slots.
• Do not drop the plate; the weight can cause significant damage to flooring or personal injury.
• Installations should be completed by trained professionals.
• A licensed structural engineer must review any load-bearing setup.

⚠️ Compatibility Warning

Crucial Steps for Safe Assembly:

• Hardware Check: This plate connects via Bolts.
  • For Plated Truss (EVT12S): Use standard Grade 8 bolts through the slots.
  • For Conical Truss (EVT290S): You will likely need Half-Couplers (Spigots with stud) to bolt into the plate slots to accept the truss.
• Pipe Sizing: The flange accepts 1.5″ Schedule 40 Pipe (1.90″ Outer Diameter). Ensure your upright pipes match this specific diameter.
