About the The Light Source Mega-Swivel Coupler XL with Stainless Steel Hardware and Stainless Steel Wingnut, Silver
The Light Source Mega-Swivel Coupler XL with stainless steel hardware and a stainless steel wingnut in silver finish is a heavy-duty rigging clamp designed to offer flexible and robust attachment points on pipe or truss structures in professional staging, lighting, and AV installations. This XL version of the classic swivel coupler is built by combining two standard Mega-Couplers with a specialized hardware kit that creates a larger, more capable swivel assembly. The result is a versatile connector that can rotate freely around the pipe axis, enabling technicians to adjust angles on the fly and achieve precise orientation of fixtures and accessories without disassembly.
Crafted from precision-machined aluminum with a silver finish, the Mega-Swivel Coupler XL pairs durability with corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in demanding environments such as concert stages, trade shows, and rental house inventory. The use of stainless steel fasteners and a stainless steel wingnut enhances corrosion resistance and longevity compared with standard hardware, offering improved performance in outdoor settings or in conditions where frequent assembly and breakdown occur. Its XL design typically increases the effective gripping area and structural heft compared to smaller swivel couplers, giving riggers confidence when integrating it into heavier rigging schemes.
Functionally, this coupler fastens onto pipe or truss tubing within a standard professional range and provides a pivoting joint that helps manage complex load directions and spatial relationships. It can also be disassembled and used as two individual Mega-Coupler halves if needed, adding flexibility to its role on the rigging floor. With a substantial working load capacity akin to other Mega-Swivel Coupler models, the XL version supports secure connections for lights, speakers, screens, or other structural elements while maintaining the ability to articulate without compromising safety.
