Thomas Truss 20.5 x 20.5 Plated

James Thomas Engineering is a name synonymous with manufacturing high-quality truss products. The JTE General Purpose Truss, also known as Thomas Truss, is constructed out of lightweight aluminum tubing that is strong despite its weight. The 20.5” x 20.5” truss is ideal for the majority of lighting applications and any general-purpose use. Unlike Thomas Truss 12'' x 12'', this model can be used for flying PA systems. We offer the 20.5” x 20.5” truss in a variety of lengths. 

Please refer to the Load Chart tab for all allowable load data, and download the JTE GP 20.5 x 20.5 spec sheet for reference. Bolts are included for assembly.
