Product Description
EVT20T-3IN | 3-Inch Aluminum Truss Spacer (20.5×20.5 Box Truss Plated)
The EVT20T-3IN Aluminum Truss Spacer is a precision-engineered 3-inch structural spacer designed for plated aluminum truss systems (typically 20.5″ x 20.5″ Heavy Duty). This component allows for intentional spacing between truss sections, maintaining proper alignment and load transfer while providing the critical adjustments needed for complex rigging challenges.
Function & Application:
Truss spacers are essential for fine-tuning overall grid height, compensating for uneven ground surfaces, and making controlled horizontal span adjustments without cutting truss. Manufactured from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, the EVT20T-3IN utilizes an industry-standard nut-and-bolt end-plate connection, ensuring it integrates seamlessly into professional touring and production rigs where precision geometry is mandatory.
Key Features
- Precision Adjustment: Adds exactly 3 inches to truss runs for leveling and span control.
- Leveling Solution: Essential for correcting uneven surfaces in ground-support systems.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Fabricated from 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy for maximum strength and durability.
- End-Plated Design: Compatible with EVT20T and standard 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 EVT20T-3IN eliminates the need for improvised shims or unsafe stacking methods, providing a safe, engineered solution for alignment issues.
⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice
❗ Critical Load Rating Information: The use of spacers affects the overall beam deflection and load capacity. Do not suspend loads directly from the spacer itself. Always consult the official Load Tables and a qualified engineer when modifying truss spans with spacers.
Important Guidelines for Safe Use:
- Inspect the end plates and bolt holes for deformation or wear before every use.
- Ensure all bolts and nuts are properly torqued to manufacturer specifications; spacers must be fully bolted on all connection points.
- 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, particularly those requiring leveling spacers.
⚠️ 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 EVT20T specifications before purchase.
- Check Alignment: Ensure chord alignment is precise to prevent uneven loading on the bolts.
