The Light Source Super-Mega Side Arm is a substantial horizontal extension arm engineered to position equipment at a fixed lateral distance from a primary support structure. This specific 36-inch fixed-length model is constructed from aluminum with a durable black anodized finish, offering an optimal balance of high strength and relatively light weight. The arm is designed as a rigid, non-adjustable beam, ensuring absolute stability and load-bearing predictability. It typically features standardized connection fittings at each end, such as pipe cups or bolt-on flanges, allowing it to be integrated between a pipe coupler on a vertical stand and a fixture yoke or another pipe segment. The black anodized surface provides a sleek, professional appearance while protecting the aluminum from oxidation and wear.

This component serves a critical role in staging, lighting, and installation work by creating a permanent and reliable offset. It is commonly used to mount lighting fixtures, speakers, or cameras out to the side of a vertical truss or tower, thereby clearing sightlines, avoiding other equipment, or covering specific areas of a stage or venue that cannot be reached from a central position. The 36-inch length provides a significant reach, enabling versatile positioning options for creating layered looks or for mounting equipment around obstructions. Its rigid construction prevents unwanted swing or bounce, which is essential for maintaining precise focus and alignment, especially for heavy fixtures.

The Super-Mega Side Arm is a professional-grade solution for system integrators and riggers who require a dependable and robust extension. Its fixed length eliminates the complexity and potential weaknesses of telescoping or adjustable arms, making it a preferred choice for permanent installations or tours where the setup is repeated with consistency. By providing a strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant lever arm, this component allows for the safe and effective deployment of equipment in complex three-dimensional arrays, forming an essential building block in the creation of sophisticated support structures for live events, architectural lighting, and broadcast environments.
