“Truss” is not one interchangeable product. A request should separate length, manufacturer, series, connection, finish and function. GLMedia confirms a compatible component list before equipment is released.
5 ft box truss
A versatile length for towers, goalposts, stage sides and combinations with compatible longer sections.
8 ft box truss
Useful in ballrooms, hotels and load-in routes where a ten-foot piece can complicate doors, elevators and turns.
10 ft box truss
Efficient coverage for larger structures when the loading dock, internal route and approved design allow the section to be handled.

Thomas Truss 12×12
Owned James Thomas Engineering box-truss sections. Lengths, series, finish, connection type and available quantities are checked against the project and current records.
Global Truss components
Owned brand inventory. Exact family, outside profile, conical connectors or applicable hardware, lengths and availability are confirmed before quoting.
X-Pro and TAF USA truss
Available families for temporary production structures. The actual system is identified and kept with its correct sections, connections and supports.
TOMCAT truss
TOMCAT components for requests that match the available family. Equipment is not mixed with another brand because the outside size or appearance looks similar.
6×6 aluminum ModTruss
A modular bolted system with connection options on all six faces. Useful for LED supports, platforms, scenic work and load-in routes where long sections are difficult to move.
MT-PL-SP-06-06-0050-AL
- 6 × 6 × 0.50 in (152.4 × 152.4 × 12.7 mm)
- 5052-H32 aluminum
- 11/16 in (17.46 mm) bolt holes
- Hardware verified against the current ModTruss Connection Guide
This is a spacer plate, not a truss section. The 6×6 size does not make it compatible with standard 12×12 truss. Official ModTruss sheet ↗ · 3D planning reference ↗
Compatibility rule: nominal size does not make different families interchangeable. Brand, series, profile, connection, hardware, orientation and documentation are verified before quote or installation. Published quantities are inventory references; date-specific availability is confirmed in writing.
Support, connections and LED deployment.
A complete structure also needs bases, cubes, hardware, transport, video-wall support and service access. Request these groups independently or as one coordinated system.
Small and large bases
Floor plates, top plates, adapters and compatible supports. Base size alone does not determine stability, ballast or load capacity.
Cubes and corner blocks
Components for goalposts, towers, corners and direction changes within Tyler or another confirmed compatible family.
Bolts, pins and hardware
Connection sets selected for the actual brand and series. Missing, mixed or unidentified hardware is not replaced by a similar-looking part.
ULF track, lift plates, carts and LED handling
Compatible GT-V options can include the ULF track and carriage, lift plates, turnbuckles, leg carts, façade fixture hangers and swivel rigging points. The actual accessory list is matched to the owned system, LED header or fixture and approved plan.
Original video-wall support
- 360 ground-support components
- 199 support grids
- 388 connection rods
- 156 rear support bases
LED bumpers and connections
- 134 one-meter double bumpers
- 79 half-meter single bumpers
- 574 support connectors
- Integration with hoists and approved plan
Current inventory reference: Unilumin counts help describe potential availability, but they do not mean every component can be used simultaneously with every LED family. Cabinet compatibility, geometry, configuration and date are confirmed in the proposal.

Tyler GT-V 14×24×120 simple-span reference.
The selected values below reproduce the manufacturer cut sheet for repetitive use at 85%. They help identify the product and start a technical conversation; they are not a design approval or a promise of capacity for a particular event.
| Simple span | UDL total | Center point load | UDL deflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 ft | 8,520 lb | 6,546 lb | 0.12 in |
| 20 ft | 6,380 lb | 3,191 lb | 0.76 in |
| 30 ft | 4,080 lb | 2,037 lb | 1.72 in |
| 40 ft | 2,880 lb | 1,432 lb | 3.10 in |

| 60 ft | 1,320 lb | 774 lb | 6.48 in |
Conditions that must stay with the table
- Supports vertical loads only, ladders vertical and no lateral loads.
- Simple span means supports at the ends only; static loads are applied at panel points and distributed evenly between ladders.
- Self-weight is included and maximum listed deflection is span/100.
- Values are based on the cited manufacturer standard references and reduced to 0.85 for repetitive use.
- Backbone chord and horizontal-member local point-load limits also apply.
- Continuous spans, negative bending, lift plates, ballast, anchoring, wind and the complete assembly require project-specific review.
Do not size a structure from this web table. Actual section condition, span, supports, load positions, accessories, dynamic effects, outdoor exposure, venue rules and qualified engineering or rigging review can change what is acceptable.
Choose the system by application.
The same component may appear in different contexts, but the final assembly changes with loads, access, environment, venue rules, schedule and contracted responsibility.

Truss rental questions.
Compatibility and responsibility are confirmed before release.
Can different truss brands be connected?
They are not assumed interchangeable. Manufacturer family, series, profile, connection and documentation must match the approved configuration.
What truss lengths does GLMedia stock?
The catalog includes 2, 5, 8 and 10 ft sections. Tyler 12×12 is confirmed in 5, 8 and 10 ft lengths; Thomas, Global Truss, X-Pro / TAF USA and TOMCAT length, series, connection and quantity are confirmed in writing for the requested date.
What is included in the Tyler 12×12 system?
The inventory reference includes plated sections, 12 cubes or corner blocks, 12 base plates, complete bolt sets and dedicated dollies. The final configuration is built from the approved geometry and load list.
What is Tyler GT-V 14×24 used for?
GT-V is Tyler's open-ended 14×24 video and fixture pre-rig. Its optional ULF track lets compatible LED headers or lighting fixtures travel and lock along an uninterrupted rigging point. Standard published lengths are 5, 8 and 10 ft. Every quote still identifies the exact sections, legs, track, carriage, accessories, loads and approved rigging method.
What is the MT-PL-SP-06-06-0050 ModTruss part?
It is a 6×6×0.50 in 5052-H32 aluminum spacer plate with 11/16 in holes. It is not a truss section, and its size does not establish compatibility with standard truss. The exact connection hardware is checked against the current ModTruss Connection Guide.
What is the difference between truss, LED ground support and hanging support?
Truss forms beams, towers, goalposts or grids. Ground support holds an LED wall from the floor using compatible support components and bases. Hanging support uses bumpers and lift points for a flown wall. They are different systems and do not replace one another without review.
Does GLMedia provide rigging?
GLMedia can supply equipment and coordinate qualified providers. Overhead or regulated rigging remains subject to venue requirements, approved plans and appropriately qualified personnel.
Can ten-foot truss fit in a hotel elevator?
Sometimes, but it must be measured. We check loading dock, doors, cabin depth, weight capacity, corridors and turns; shorter or modular components may be better for restricted routes.
Does a large base automatically make a structure stable?
No. Stability and capacity depend on geometry, supports, loads, height, environment, ballast or anchoring, surface, manufacturer data and the approved design. The base is selected as part of the complete system.
Can this equipment be used outdoors?
An outdoor scope may be quoted when the actual system, documentation, wind plan, ballast or anchoring, inspection, operation and venue approval allow it. Section availability alone is not approval for outdoor use.
Can I rent only sections, bases or hardware?
Yes, for qualified production and technical teams. Delivery, installation and strike, operation or a coordinated technical-production package may also be quoted. Equipment is released identified by family and compatibility.
