About the The Light Source Turnbuckle, Adjustable 7.5-11.5 in, MLM Silver
The Light Source Turnbuckle, Adjustable 7.5–11.5 in, MLM in silver is a precision-engineered rigging linkage designed to offer adjustable spacing and alignment control in professional staging, truss, and video wall support systems. This turnbuckle is manufactured from aircraft-grade aluminum, delivering a balance of lightweight handling and rugged durability that fits the needs of touring crews, rental houses, and permanent installs alike. Its design allows incremental length adjustments between 7.5 in and 11.5 in, enabling technicians to tailor distances between pipes, trusses, or mounting points with ease during setup and load optimization.
Central to the product’s adjustability is a 3/4″-6 TPI Acme threaded rod paired with a machined aluminum turnbuckle sleeve, which provides smooth and secure length changes under load. Internal 3/8″-16 TPI threaded receptacles at each end of the rod allow attachment of rigging accessories such as Mega-Couplers, eye bolts, or video wall adaptors, lending versatility to the component in diverse rigging workflows. Whether aligned between truss chords to set beam spacing or used to help level video walls, this turnbuckle adds precision to structural assemblies.
With a working load limit of approximately 1,100 lb, this turnbuckle supports substantial loads when integrated into properly engineered systems. The silver anodized finish enhances corrosion resistance and helps maintain a professional appearance even with repeated use. Its MLM designation typically indicates that it is supplied with one Mega-Coupler attachment, streamlining integration with other Light Source rigging hardware and expanding its utility across a wide range of applications within the entertainment industry.
