The Light Source Mega-Truss Pick, Total Structures, 1 ton, Black Anodized MTP20.375B

The Light Source Mega-Truss Pick engineered for Total Structures is a heavy-duty, precision lifting component designed to meet the exacting standards of one of the industry's premier truss system manufacturers. Featuring a one-ton load capacity and a black anodized finish, this pick is built for the safe and reliable overhead suspension of truss in the most demanding professional touring, theatrical, and permanent installation environments. The black anodized finish on the aluminum body provides a hard, durable surface with superior corrosion resistance and a low-reflective, professional appearance that blends seamlessly into both stage and architectural settings. This pick is specifically designed to interface perfectly with the chord profile and connection points of Total Structures truss, ensuring a secure, slip-free mechanical fit that facilitates optimal load transfer and safety. It serves as the critical, rated link between the truss structure and the flying hardware, capable of handling the substantial static and dynamic loads of fully rigged lighting, audio, and video arrays.

Constructed from high-tensile aluminum alloy, the pick is engineered to combine lightweight properties with immense strength. The one-ton (2,000 lb) working load limit provides a significant safety factor, instilling confidence when suspending valuable equipment over audiences and performers. The top mounting interface is contoured to clamp or bolt securely to the truss chord, while the lower end features a reinforced shackle hole for standard rigging connections. The black anodized finish not only enhances durability but also offers a discreet aesthetic that is favored in theatrical applications. This pick is a fundamental component in the Total Structures ecosystem, enabling the industry's best practice of ground-rigging—where entire truss segments are pre-assembled and cabled on the ground before being flown—thereby maximizing safety and efficiency during load-in.

This pick is an indispensable tool for production companies, rental houses, and system integrators who specify Total Structures truss for major events and fixed installations. Its use ensures full compatibility and performance within the Total Structures system, which is known for its engineering excellence and reliability. For crews on worldwide tours and high-profile events, this pick represents a trusted piece of hardware that is integral to executing complex rigging designs safely and precisely. By providing a dedicated, rated connection point, it ensures compliance with the highest safety standards and facilitates the rapid, modular assembly that is central to modern production logistics. It embodies the synergy between specialized component manufacturing and the practical demands of large-scale entertainment rigging.
