About the The Light Source Fork Adapter, Center Point, 23.63" CTR

The Light Source Fork Adapter is a precision rigging adapter designed to convert a standard center-point lifting eye into a dual-point, forked lifting configuration. The key specification "23.63" CTR" (Center) indicates the critical measurement between the centers of its two upper mounting pins, which is exactly 23.63 inches. This adapter is engineered to provide a stable and balanced connection point for lifting wide or long loads that require two pick points to prevent twisting or uneven stress. Its primary function is to attach to a single master link or shackle from a hoist or chain motor above, while its two lower pins provide individual attachment points for two leg wires, slings, or other rigging hardware below, effectively creating a "Y" in the lifting path.

Constructed from high-tensile forged steel or aluminum with a machined finish, the adapter is built for safety and reliability under heavy loads. The center-point design ensures that the load is distributed evenly to both lower connection points when lifted, which is essential for maintaining the level orientation of trusses, lighting beams, or other production equipment during flight. This specific center-to-center pin distance is standardized to match common rigging practices and equipment dimensions, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of truss end plates and other hardware designed for dual-point lifting.

This piece of rigging hardware is indispensable for safely flying wide truss sections, large scenic pieces, or any load that is too broad to be lifted from a single center point without risk of bowing or instability. By providing a geometrically precise and robust interface, the Fork Adapter allows riggers to employ a balanced two-point lift from a single hoist line, simplifying rigging points while enhancing control and safety during the lifting, positioning, and lowering of heavy production elements in theatrical, concert, and exhibition settings.
