Aluminum Screw Bolt Truss Plate Sizes 300mm 400mm 500mm 600mm 800mm

What is an Aluminum Truss Base Plate?

An aluminum truss base plate is a structural component used at the bottom of truss systems to provide ground support, stability and load distribution. It is essential for ensuring safe installation of stage, lighting and event truss structures.

Product Overview

This product includes aluminum bolt-type base plates in multiple sizes (300mm to 800mm), designed to support different truss systems and load requirements.

It is commonly used in:

• lighting truss systems

• stage truss structures

• truss towers and totems

• goal post and frame systems

Structural Function (Critical Understanding)

Base plates are responsible for:

• distributing vertical load to ground

• increasing system stability

• preventing tipping or sinking

• providing connection interface for truss towers

Without proper base plates:
even strong truss systems become unsafe

How to Choose the Right Base Plate Size

1. Based on Truss Size

• 290mm / 300mm truss → 300–400mm plate

• 400mm truss → 500–600mm plate

• heavy systems → 600–800mm plate

2. Based on Load & Height

Higher structures require:

• larger base plate

• better stability

3. Based on Ground Condition

• hard floor → standard plate

• soft ground → larger plate or reinforcement

Engineering Insight

Base Plate = Stability Control Element

Many users think truss strength depends only on truss itself.

Actually:
base plate controls overall system stability

Load Distribution Principle

A larger base plate:

• spreads load over wider area

• reduces ground pressure

• increases anti-tipping resistance

FAQ 

What size base plate should I use?

Depends on truss size, height and load. Larger systems require larger plates.

Can I use a small plate for heavy truss?

Not recommended — it reduces stability and increases safety risk.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, but additional support may be required for soft ground.

Is it compatible with all truss systems?

Mainly designed for bolt connection systems.
