Product Description

EVT290S-BBP12 Black 12″ x 12″ Matte Black Aluminum Truss Base Plate | Lightweight Support for EVT290S

The EVT290S-BBP12 Black Aluminum Base Plate is a precision-engineered foundation component designed specifically for EVT290S 290 mm square conical aluminum truss systems. Finished in a durable, non-reflective matte black powder coat, it provides a stable ground support solution for upright truss pillars, motion capture grids, studio environments, and portable lighting stands where both structural reliability and visual discretion are required.

Manufactured from high-grade 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, the BBP12 delivers dependable performance in a lightweight package. The powder-coated finish serves a dual purpose: it creates a tough, scratch-resistant outer shell to prevent corrosion and ensures an anti-reflective surface that eliminates glare and hotspots—critical for broadcast filming and clean motion capture data. It features a secure conical connection system using high-strength bolts and conical receivers, always secured with Couplers, Pins, and R-clips for fast, repeatable assembly.

This 12-inch base plate is versatile enough to be mounted to either the top or bottom of a truss segment. It is designed for use with EVT290S 290 mm square truss sections and includes a laser-cut integrated handle for easy transport, making it an ideal choice for portable exhibits and professional studio rigs.

⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice

❗ Critical Stability Information: This base plate is intended for ground support and stability. It is not designed for heavy ballast or high-leverage loads in outdoor or high-wind environments. Always consult a qualified engineer to determine if additional weighting or outriggers are required for your specific build height and load.

Important Guidelines for Safe Use:

• Never exceed the rated load capacity of the truss system or base plate.
• No loads shall be supported directly from truss connection points.
• Inspect the base plate before every use; do not use if bent, cracked, or deformed.
• Handle components with care—avoid dropping, dragging, or improper stacking.
• Assembly and installation must be performed only by trained and qualified personnel.
• Ensure all Couplers, Pins, and R-clips are correctly installed and fully secured.
• Account for all applicable forces, including dynamic and transverse forces such as wind loads.
• Do not mix truss components from different manufacturers.
• All truss structures must be reviewed and approved by a licensed professional engineer.

⚠️ Compatibility Warning for Mixed-Brand Builds

Crucial Steps for Safe Assembly:

• Verify all dimensions before integrating with other truss brands.
• Confirm conical connector type, node spacing, and system geometry.
• Mixing components without verification may compromise structural integrity and safety.
